Ok, maybe Havana inspired….We celebrated a friend’s birthday at Cuban Petes-a local Cuban restaurant where I live. It is such a festive atmosphere and I just love the music they play! Lots of laughs, champagne and coconut shrimp! Nearly 70 percent humidity, but we survived! :)
book launches, botanicals and birthdays--Oh MY!
This past week was more action packed than most. My friend Marcy Dermansky’s latest book “Hurricane Girl:” came out and we had a great launch at Watchung Books where moderator/actrees Dagmara Domińczyk asked her lots of great questions without any spoilers. Afterward, we all headed to Marcy’s house for a fun party in her backyard. So proud of her! She is getting the most incredible reviews including the New York Times and The Boston Globe.
Had me creative group meetup in Bryant Park the next day so we each set some concrete goals for July.
This weekend I celebrated a much delayed birthday for one of my friends and we were so blessed to have perfect, sunny 72 degree weather this late in July! Nice long lunch outdoors, a walk through ny fave local garden and then back to my place to open gifts.
And as always, little Boo is a constant delight. She is taking up making art in my studio as I work. Usually abstracts made by walking across fresh paint. ;)
