A Saturday morning walk downtown. We notice, for the first time, a how beautiful a building is, even though we’ve walked past it a hundred times. See what you’re looking at. While Hunna and I shop the market, the girls […]
A little field trip for the cousins this Friday: a trip to Stone Barns Center for Food & Agriculture. Down at the barnyard, Sam got a little scared of the pigs. And Mae and Jane were not impressed wih the […]

Why is it that choosing my annuals for the porch and patio pots is always such a conundrum? Every year I fret and waiver: should I get these? Which flowers? What color combinations? I know, I know: #firstworldproblems. Sam […]
First of all, I hate shopping at Lowe’s to begin with. How many times have you gone there with your husband and then endlessely walked the aisles, looking for him? I can’t be the only person. And you can never […]
Easter Sunday: Church, Easter eggs and spring dresses. And Greg at church! A special day indeed! Isn’t it funny how the Easter Bunny comes while you’re at church and hides the same eggs that you dyed the day before? How […]

I’ve enjoyed my meals at Westchester Burger Company in Westchester, so we thought we’d give the one in Rockland a try. Two notes: The food is very good, but the portions are enormous. Enormous! My burger with bacon and egg […]

Our second time at the circus with this little girl. I think she understood things a little better this time around. But when we walked in to the arena, people everywhere, strange sounds and smells, she got a little weepy. […]
We’ve had a lot of snow this winter, but no storm came with as much surprise as the one that crept in while we were sleeping Sunday night. We awoke to push alerts about school closings and a coating of […]
Heading downtown for pancakes, labne, a Magritte rice bowl and some good times with a groundhog. There was a wait for a table at Art Cafe, so we headed next door to the library to bide our time. Boo with […]

She loves our little Nyack bakery. This photo is from last week, when she had a blueberry muffin and a croissant. Then she was talking about “Didier! Didier!” all week, so after church this week, we went back. Didier himself […]
On Christmas morning, I didn’t take many photos. Too sick! Sondra and Leigh came over, and Sam opened a few presents. This year, she received: a singing microphone from the O’Donnells; some card sets from us, including “crazy faces” and […]
Merry Christmas everybody! I’m sorry to say that SCF doesn’t have the extravangza of recipes and cooking posts that normally accompany this time of year. (Like in Christmas 2012, Christmas 2011, Christmas 2010…well, you get the picture…) I have been […]
For our third year now (2012 here, 2011 here), we’ve relished in a holiday tradition of reading Truman Capote’s ‘A Christmas Memory.’ This year, we were at Kris and Tom’s, and Eamon and Sadie joined in for dinner and the […]
