Wow it suddenly feels like fall. I’m not mad about it – it’s nice to feel that yearning for coziness that comes with drizzly, windy weather. We do have plans to go to San Gennaro, a fall festival, and apple picking this weekend, so I’ll be upset if this fall weather turns to full on rain and messes with that. I’ll keep my fingers crossed it just stays cloudy and prepare to lean into sweatah weathah.

Neudecks love a street fair and we were lucky to find one right next to our standard Saturday morning routine. This particular street fair included a block or two of Japan Fes, so that was a nice little bonus.

If I’m going to celebrate anybody’s birthday, it’s going to be The Strand. I can’t wait for their big 100 next year!

I couldn’t show up to break the fast empty handed so I assembled a bodega bouquet using four smaller ones, and I think it came out pretty nice!
