Good Saturday


Steve and Jeanine coming back from their run.
They usually go out at the crack of dawn.


are you supposed to pull out the ivy?  Does it get too thick?
I'm usually trying to plant more.


Breakfast at Sook fit for a queen


After seeing the balloon out yesterday morning
I decided to make a reservation and try Pearl.
I called and they said there was seafood and pasta on the menu.


including bouillabaisse
which was excellent


along with the dessert


and the owner an chef


who had every table filled by 7:30, and people waiting outside.
Good thing I made a reservation.
Our new little Pearl already had a big following.
Make your reservation.











I popped into Arthur Groom to see if Joyce was in-
missed her

rain, snow, cold
April 1, 2011




The movie theater is not lighting the sign
but still has a good message

the inner workings



the Pearl is open




THE Ridgewood Walker
I admire her so!




Winter Sale is more like it
Real flakes are falling
on this spring morn






Just get me to the school on time!
...maybe not today

birds, peace and umbrellas

The birds are up!
It's not the light, so it must be the 42 degrees that the birds are discussing.
they like it, and so do I.
a light Irish rain is falling.





Will it be snow covered tomorrow as predicted?
I saw 2 trucks with plows.



Folly
Mary Beth makes the most gorgeous flower arrangements
and is the nicest person
The cover of March Design Magazine shows a Somerville House
with her flowers on the table.
Congrats!


Enough to temp a thief!





Yesterday I had a dinner at my house and ordered the eggplant from Best of Everything.
The eggplant is excellent...
not to mention their other specialities.
they do deserve to be called Best of Everything.






Levato & Gaudiomonte
Opticians
I got my glasses here
and I continually get compliments on them.
I have to say, they really help you
find a flattering look



I love this peace sign
at Lucky Jeans


 The morning can be summarized in this shot-
Peace & Rain


and more darling umbrellas


The things you find!  Just outside North Jersey Bank I see clusters of
grapes, green and red....
Inside North Jersey I find my coffee and friendly bankers
It's becoming one of my favorite morning stops.




 Library's Author Luncheon
today
This should be really good
the BF book club will be going in force,
and I am sorry I will not be with them.
Have a great time!


Stunning new gown in Gattinnoli's window.



The most dangerous intersection in town
because it's the widest?
I am super careful crossing


I thought the burn was over..


are they testing?
It looks nice and vacuumed
