Eat. Drink. Live.
Sam’s friend Claire (and our friends Jane and Pat) invited us to her third birthday party. Wonderful weather, delicious food and fun with friends. Here are a few pics: Â Â Â Â Â Â
In the last couple of years we’ve made some new friends in the neighborhood, most of them with kids about the same age as Sam. A few even go to the same day care. And at this year’s day care […]
A little greeting from down South, where Jane and Mae are writing signs and acting silly. Merry (or is that Mary!) Christmas:
Our ‘new’ neighbors have lived across the street for almost two years now, but we hadn’t had a chance to have supper together until now. Way overdue, and so much fun, too. We took a cue from Peggy’s delishy appetizer […]
It’s been a great month. We end it with BLTs and a fun night at the ranch. Blueberry Caiparinas: Cousins have their last supper of summer 2013: A few portraits of us girls: Tomato salad: BLTs […]
Climbing on things! Good times.
An adventure in the city, with a walk on the High Line and a pizza lunch at Artichoke Basille, which does New York-style pizza right. Here’s a look at the photos. Â Â Here’s a stop to see “Untitled” by […]
Another Tuesday, another show! The whole family gathered at the park for a picnic of chicken, Alice’s and Doris’, and Kris and Irene came bearing gifts from Rubiner’s in Great Barrington: fabulous cheeses and charcuterie. Tom’s friends Sally and Dave […]
A few pics of the girls on the couch on a Sunday morning. Happy summer!
Cousins, being cousins. Click through to see another video inside the post.
Our final night in Amagnsett. It was too rainy to spend magic hour at the beach, so we had a little dance party USA with the girls while making dinner. More of those photos to come from Sarah and Laurie, […]
Mae, Sam and Jane, ready to head to the beach. Cuties!
As is typical of our vacations, we started out with rain. But we eeked out a nice few hours on the beach, and were able to spend a nice evening on our ocean-view deck. Here are a few photos from […]
An early supper at the ranch: takeout from Cassie’s and the last of this lettuce crop from Sour Cherry Farm. (More is on the way!) The cousins all sat together. Cuties. Laurie! No photos of Sondra, Leigh or Greg […]
A few leftover ribs, a watermelon salad and Laurie’s perfect rendition of Stell’as potato salad and we had the makings for supper at the club. We let the kids swim til they were blue, and spread a tablecloth over the […]
Mae and Jane try to read stories to Sam before bed. Try being the operative word here. Click through to see two other videos.
A field trip to the city to see some farm animals? As incongruous as that sounds, it was a fun trip! Sarah and her girls against the backdrop of Central Park South: The seals at feeding time!  Love this photo! […]
Goat feeding and other fun frolicking for your YouTubing pleasure.
Greg took Sam for a walk down to see the cool cars in the main street lot downtown Nyack. I don’t have many photos of that, but here’s a few of the kids and super-cool Delorean:
Sarah and the girls arrived at Westchester Airport at 3 p.m. By 6:30, we were all down at Memorial Park, picnic table assembled, Bambi blanket spread and beach chairs upright. Steven Swann played and the evening was an absolute blast. […]
The last concert in the park, and also Sarah’s and the girls’ last night in New York. We made the most of it, though. What a wonderful summer tradition this has become!
Let’s see: Somewhat near the Cloisters? Delicious food? Kid-friendly? Bingo: Dinosaur BBQ. That is my lovely combo platter with pulled pork, brisket and ribs along with salt potatoes and an iceberg wedge. Man oh man was that delicious. Sam had […]
I’ve been trying to visit the Cloisters since, oh, probably the mid-1990s. Finally. We made it. Very happy we did, especially after seeing the gardens. And the unicorns. The Cloisters is a branch of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Here’s […]
Family meal! We made chicken with apricots and peanut sauce and took it over to the Ranch for a Saturday supper. Good stuff, right Greg? Watermelon margies! What?
The whole family — Grammy & Leighlo, Wilson, Sarah, all the cousins and us — enjoyed a summer meal at the farm. Les Dorkages:
Our day at the beach. Our evening at the beach. We don’t do much, but it sure is fun. [wowslider id=”28″]
Lobster rolls and oysters at the Clam Bar. Yes, summer is here.
We’re back in Amagansett for a week of beach life. A little beach time during the day. A little dinner for the kids. Then babysitter comes to the unit and we head to the beach for magic hour. Cheers!
We went to see our new neighbor and friend Mario the Magician perform in the city, and to Mae’s great amusement, she was chosen as a helper during the show. Well, criss-cross, applesauce! (Sorry about the blur, but it was […]
The three cousins were so darn adorable watching cartoons on the porch I couldn’t help but snap a ton of photos. Here’s a looksee: And OK… a couple of videos, too. So cute.
My husband, Greg, and I are co-founders of SCF, which chronicles what we eat, drink and grow as we raise our daughter on a tiny plot of land in the Lower Hudson Valley.
