Tuesday
evening I explored a bit of Hunter College getting lost trying to find the
President’s Conference Room for the planning meeting for VDay. The Ladies I met from Brava Drumming were
there, and many other interesting Ladies.
I’m kind of fascinated to see how this all comes together. From there I decided to head down to Union
Square to do a bit of shopping, including Trader Joe’s. Mistake, big
mistake. At 9:45 pm the checkout line
was wrapped around the store, literally.
Deciding I didn’t need provisions after all, I headed out for home. Right outside was the Nuchas Food Truck, Artisan Hand-Held Foods, or Argentiain empanadas (www.nuchas).
They were at the NYC Food Film Fest.
And, they won the 2013 Rookie of the Year at the Vendy awards (like the Oscars for NYC Food Trucks). I created their sign one on of the infamous, to me, chalk boards. I bought a delicious croissant for breakfast.

Wednesday
evening I went to a funky show,
Iluminate, Artist of Light at New World Stages on W 50th. I got the ticket through Play by Play, so the
price was definitely great. From their website:
Music, art, and the technological magic of iLuminate
bring you a story of adventure and romance told through dance styles from
contemporary to hip-hop to breaking and using the power of light. We invite you
to join us for "Artist of Light," an original and wholly
unforgettable theatrical experience!
Thursday late afternoon I ventured down to the 67th Street Library for
my Women’s Writing Workshop and then enjoyed another light dinner
with a few of the Ladies at our regular Le Pain Quotidien. From there I
decided to take my first walk down 5th Avenue to enjoy the beauty of
the lights. Although the crowds can be daunting, it never disappoints.
I was brought to tears when I witnessed a proposal in front of the tree
at Rockefeller Center!

Saturday
was our last Philosophy Class for the session.
As always, a wonderful way to start my Saturday. Many of us plan on being back for Session 3. From there, my Philosophy Friend and I went
over to Gowanus in Brooklyn, to the Bell House for Matt Timm’s Cookie Takedown. Great fun, although I must say, none of the
cookies knocked my sox off. But, the
contestants worked hard, and Matt makes it crazy.
