Fall Kickoff

Oh Monday... how difficult it is to relinquish the freedom of the weekend. Sigh...

I am about halfway through The Discovery of Witches and I am totally obsessed! Like The Night Circus last year, it is fulfilling a fall-inspired literary yearning for a book filled with mystery and mystical creatures. If you are looking for a fire front read to match the horror tinged season, definitely check it out!

Speaking of fall, this weekend was the perfect way to kickoff the season of autumn. The Yankees won, which meant that we got to wander out of Yankee stadium, buried in a wave of blue, as Frank Sinatra's "New York, New York" blasted over the intercom. There's nothing like it!
After some manicures and pedicures, my sister and I met up with her boyfriend and M. and headed off for some dinner at my new favorite neighborhood joint, The Penrose, followed by the Bon Iver concert, which was awesome. It was just my perfect concert combination; an exhilarated crowd, an artistry of sound, a mix of new and old songs and sounds, and a light show that highlighted all of the right dramatic musical moments. Love it! 
Add in a dash of art shows, brunches, smushy faced dog love, warm fall beverages, crisp fall weather, and a great book to read cosily in bed to close the evening on Sunday and this was definitely a perfect weekend...
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
