Join me for a peek into my weekend....
in my favorite city, New York!
One World Trade Center
I spent the weekend in the Big Apple with my girlfriends....
Lots of eating...shopping....walking and good times.
We visited the World Trade Center Memorial
Located where the twin towers of the World Trade Centre once stood are two granite pools in its footprints with waterfalls cascading 30 feet below. The pools are one acre in size and sprawl out across WTC Plaza. Each pool represents one of the two towers that fell on September 11, 2011.
The pools are surrounded by bronze panels inscribed with the names of those who perished in the attacks on 9/11. It is an amazing memorial.
The silence of the park and the waterfalls was just breathtaking.
Later in the day we traveled to
SoHo....
There, I even got to meet Rachel Ashwell the founder of Shabby Chic....
to my surprise she was working inside The Shop, right after I took this picture!
It made my day...
She was such a delight!
Also that weekend we ran into Andy Warhol outside
of ABC Carpet and Home in Union Square

We were lucky enough to dine on a yummy dinner at Buddakan...
We had Milk and Cookies at The Standard in The Meat Packing District
and had a lot of great photo ops, including this
Moet Sailboat....
"Be Fabulous" that's their motto, so we adopted it for our very own!
What a view!
We had a delightful cocktail hour, here at Gigino's overlooking
the New York Harbor...
Gigino is located in Wagner Park overlooking the Statue of Liberty
