Dec 23, 2023 - My "Pretty, Please" photo of the week - This is a picture of a 4" x 6" print that I purchased on the High Line in July 2023, in NYC. It's propped up near my desk and love the color and floral layers, deightfully brought indoors, where a chair invites rest...a happy place! The High Line is a special place for me...and this print reminds me why...the thoughtful smart architecture, the views, and the contrast...the lush Wonderland hidden above and within the stark steel of the city.
A VERY FULL HOUSE THIS WEEK! Kids home for Christmas...yay!!
Menu: By planning ahead, I can always count on having delicious & nutritious "fuel" for the coming week, as well as some flexibility to switch things up. If you're viewing this on your phone, you will need to scroll to the right to see lunch & dinner. Links below will send you to my own recipe, a cookbook/borrowed recipe, or the restaurant I visited.
