This Fourth of July, I celebrated my freedom from the beige cubicle (...as well as larger, more lasting freedoms, of course...)
I also celebrated the life & times of Mr. Andy Griffith (can you believe I'd never seen one single episode of his eponymous show before yesterday? It's streaming on Netflix, and it is delightful.)
I also celebrated root beer floats. And iced coffees. And friendship. Whole lotta celebrating going on.

Sounds like a great day!! I stayed home with the pugs all day sewing. So lame! And also maybe drank a bottle of champagne while watching "The Dark Knight". You know, the usual 4th of July stuff.
Your day sounds *amazing.* GW would totes approve!
(GW = either George Washington or my mom. Take your pick.)
i finally had the opportunity to eat at the Shake Shack (theatre district loc) last month. I was delighted with my burger and my "Jelly's Last Donut" concrete. I've been by Madison Square Park a couple of times, but that line always made me run across the street to Eataly.
Also picked up a few Nutter Butters from Bouchon Bakery.
Your city is delicious!
Stephen,
Yup - we waited in the Shack line for at least 45 minutes. Definitely not 'fast' food.
And wait - Bouchon makes Nutter Butters?? Uh-oh. That is dangerous knowledge to possess. I bet they're amazing!
You will never look at those Nabisco cookies the same way again! I am serious. Super-amazing.
But only if you like peanut butter..
Man you have a SWEET life and I LOVE to read about it....makes me feel younger and cooler!
Excellent photos too as always :)
