Simple Joys, Great Pleasures
Many think local New Yorkers are hard to please.
Here is my personal list of ’simple’ things that start off our days on a high note, or end it with a bang!
- 70 degreees in January.
- Happy hour at Morgan bar.
- Accessible Phoebe Cates (for guys!)
- Arriving on a subway platform as your train approaches.
- Catching the LIRR 8 seconds before the doors close. (You totally ran for it!)
- Just when you were about to give up (aka walk) A ‘lit’ taxi drives up!
- H&M everywhere
- Wondee
- Surprise visits
- Cupcakes, Cream puff and City Bakery.
- Weekend brunch with the girls
- Tocilog at Dragonfly
- Cosi’s signature salad!
- ‘Barnes and Nobles’ and ‘Borders’ Signings & Sightings
- $20 Edwin Mccain or Lisa Loeb Concert Tix - at a small pub, that you’re so close! ( ‘Imported’ Philippine talents charge 5x that!&?#@!)
- Film screenings and premieres
- Art gallery openings
- Tons of friends
- Broadway a block away!
- Sample sales! (Rafe, Prada, etc)
It’s all about proximity - and mobility.
In the end, what could be a ‘blah’ day for others could very easily turn into a day you’ll never forget.
And with 365 days in a year, your digital camera totally needs to tell the date!
