10. Apple and vegetable picking at Lawrence Farms in Upstate New York, best apple cider doughnuts ever!

Roses and Milk

Roses and Milk is a sweet little place at the very edge of Greenpoint Brooklyn. It has a sleepy vibe with a serene back patio and a newly enclosed greenhouse where you can have your latte when its cold and still enjoy the garden. The staff is friendly and attentive. Get there soon because they have just finished construction on two mammoth sized buildings across the street that go around the entire city block, which means this pretty little oasis will soon be over taken by the uncool looking to get some cool. My other favorite place Ashbox is on the next block and they offer Japanese comfort food.

Sunday Break

Its been a little rough going in my home these past three and a half weeks, my little pup Budda had to have emergency surgery for his back because he became paralyzed and was in a lot of pain, he has a disease called IVDD, so when I was offered a little break time to get out while my little guy was watched I had a really nice sunday. Started with a massage, then a delicious brunch and a lovely stroll in Park Slope, Brooklyn.
