All my years in NYC, and I didn’t know the Grolier Club existed
Manuscript
The description
Old school bistro…hamburger is expensive but delicious
Charlotte Bronte
Joe’s pizza…best slice in NYC
Book club….a long saga…..sigh….
Farce and funny
Women is not inferior to men…from the beginning…
Laderach chocolate bark- I tried the one with carmel flecks….did’t suck….
ee cummings
Why am I embarrassed to admit I like Reese’s picks?
Book club- Dear Edward is SOOO good
My husband has a habit of buying spice mixes and such, which I forget about until I do a clean. So I made this the other night. So spicy I told my husband to get a slice if pizza because he couldn’t eat it. There’s a moral in there somewhere
So I tried to clean this decanter….and I couldn’t get it dry….
My vision book
Is your lawn passive?
Daily Provisions hot chocolate…marshmallows and whipped cream…I didn’t even need the chocolate
Did you all catch the finale of Howard’s End last Sunday?

I looked up two of these…Dear Edward is now on my To Read list – thanks for the rec. And the Grolier Club. What a find…free to visit, too! That great advantage of living in a culture capital…
Have a happy rest of the weekend.
I think they seeded it or something, and I’m guessing they don’t want people walking on it. It’s at Washington square park and I e never seen a sign like that before so I thought it was pretty funny
I love ee cummings, that SLICE, and of course that chocolate . . all dressed up with somewhere to go. I don’t know if you have already, but you can Google the steps for drying a glass decanter, seeing as how the grooves will keep the moisture locked in, it takes some patience.
The decanter thing proved to be a daunting task…I texted my friend for solutions. I ended up stuffing paper towels in it, which dried it, but now the decanter is on my shelf filled with paper towels…but I needed a project for next week…
Love the vision book. I have one for full moon dreamboards that I will be adding to tonight! I like a thicker crusted pizza myself but ooohhh chocolate and caramel is my absolute favorite! Nice week. Thanks for sharing.
The Grolier Club? I went to the Soldiers and Airmen Club once and they encouraged me to return. I am still thinking of it as a nice mini vacation and perhaps to Westhampton if my aunt is still there.
Yes, my aunt just sold her house there but now she is talking about renting one. She is also in her 80’s, so we shall see. I did spend lovely summers there.
Two chocolate pictures. 😊 Your week was so different from mine, which is not surprising, but my week was focused on 2 things: snow and presenting about books to children on Wednesday and teachers / librarians on Friday.
I like the idea of doing a week in review.

That lawn looks like it’s more dirt than grass. Is it the dirt that makes it passive?
