New York, New York!

New York

I'm in New York!

And, with a few hours to spare, I headed off this morning to two places that have long been on my 'Want to Visit' list.

First stop, Purl Soho - the little yarn mecca behind the lovely aqua shopfront.  Purl carries a magical selection of natural yarns in all the colours of the rainbow (and more).  After sitting for a time and knitting up a swatch amidst the bustle and friendliness, I now have a small stash of jade-coloured cashmere to keep my fingers busy throughout the rest of my trip.

Next port of call, Pure Food and Wine - or rather the take-away attached to this gourmet raw food restaurant.  My haul of goodies here included fresh green juice (which went by the peculiar title of Swan Greens) and heart-shaped gingerbread cookies.  Which, having shared vicariously with you, I'm now about to polish off!

More from New York anon...
