So here it is- halfway through July… here’s a recap of my week:
What I watched:
- “Won’t You be My Neighbor”- documentary- theaters- Mr. Rogers…
- “When Harry Met Sally” Tribeca Drive In- at Westfield. The Oculus Plaza in the shadow of the World Trade Center sometimes does movie nights. It’s a cool way to see a movie in the city. This is one of my favorite romantic comedies! But remind me not to invite my daughter to any movie that I love…
Wimbledon- the men’s quarters and semis- Are you serious? Some of best matches ever!
What was on my playlist:
- Coldplay
- AC/DC
- Chloe x Halle
- Jason Aldean
- CHVRCHES
- Belle and Sebastian
What I went to:
- New York Historical Society- “Walk This Way: Footwear from the Stuart Weotzman Collection of Historic Shoes (seriously- an exhibit of shoes! Cynthia: Shoes!!!)
Rockwell, Roosevelt & the Four Freedoms
- Manhattan Henge- (a day when the sunset is exactly aligned with the grid of streets in Manhattan- I didn’t need to go far as I can get a decent view a block from my apartment)
- I had dinner with friends in Brooklyn: I know people liked skyline shots, so here are some I took with phone of the view we had from the restaurant: (I have a feeling there will be a post about this particular evening)
Dole Whip Float (New York Style) at Chikarashi- (it was hot out and it was delicious)
What I read:
“The Intermission” Elyssa Friedland
Random Question: What is the best part of my day?
The best part of my day is at night. I wash up, make a cup of tea, and I go over my day and write in my personal journal. This is the moment I think of my very best moment of the day- and this moment is just for me. It’s the thing I think about as I go to sleep.
Random Quote:
Quotes have become popular in out household (which I will explain in further posts) and I read this the other day, so I thought I would add it:
“When a match has equal partners then I fear not.” Aeschylus
Enjoy the week!!
Shoe exhibits always amaze me when they include Victorian era, or earlier, shoes. How in the world did any woman ever get her foot into those things!!

Long ago, Stewart Weitzman was an all time favorite of mine. His shoes were beautiful and extremely comfortable… but somewhere down the line things started changing, and the quality and flirty design of his shoes were not wonderful — for me anyhow. I’m sure his display of shoes was beautiful! You had a good week! 🙂

Those shoes are works of art even though they look like they would cripple me and my short wide (some people say Flintstone) feet!
