Union Square market

Edibles: fresh apple cider; a bag of apple cider donuts; a giant ginger cookie; a block of pumpkin gingerbread; slabs of a sharp cheddar and an aged alpine cheese; a Granny Smith apple

Sunshine!! The kind that makes you want to fling out your arms and burst into song! Still a tad chilly, but more than tolerable with the help of a nice warm scarf and some legwarmers. Sylvia and I wandered, grazed, gossiped about boys. A perfect afternoon.

(We also came across a public group pillowfight in the square. Only in New York.)
