Summer Birthday Celebration NYC


For my birthday this year, I decided to get my family together and have a picnic lunch in Central Park. The weather was perfect; sunny, breezy, and in the low 80's.  We entered the park around 72nd and 5th and were greeted by a row of beautiful American Elms.

The picnic lunch from Bouchon Bakery. We brought our old plaid blanket along- perfect for relaxing on Sheep's Meadow.



We had a terrific time canoeing around the Central Park Lake-the midtown view in the background.

 Hudson Clearwater in the West Village was the perfect spot for a casual and delicious birthday dinner. A side of Potato-cauliflower gratin.


We spent Sunday morning in Williamsburg and had a relaxing brunch at Cafe Mogador

The ferry ride view of the Brooklyn Bridge from Williamsburg to Dumbo.

Sunday Smorgasburg in Dumbo is an eclectic mix of food vendors.
