“The opaque purple color of this wine hints at its depth of character. Integrated, complex aromas of briary blackberry, marionberry and smoldering campfire greet the nose. Blue and black fruit flavors are confirmed on the palate, as well as notes of dusty earth and spice.”

“One word…CASHMERE seems to describe the Delectus 2010 “Cuvee Julia” Red Wine just fine. This wine envelops you with a lush nose of crème de blackberry,
vanilla, baking spices and ginger-molasses cookie dough. Cocoa, espresso and sandalwood turn into smoky and savory bacon fat. It is a potpourri of scents.”

“In its youth, this wine is all about tannins, acids and oak…but intricacies range from flowers and mushrooms to tea, cola and wildland herbs. The texture is light and silky.”

Our hotel is on 57th and 7th, just north of the quintessential tourist attraction Times Square. The kids have their $4 flavorless hot dogs and while sitting in the center of the sensory-overwhelming digital billboards pronounce it the best hot dog ever. We make our way south to 42nd Street. We see Aladdin, a dazzling show that captivates us all. East is Bryant Park. Remnants of the holiday fair remain. We find a cozy spot with cocktails, churros and a great view of the ice skating outside.

Designed by James Corner Field Operations, ICEBERGS opened at the National Building Museum as part of the annual Summer Block Party series. ICEBERGS was designed by landscape architects and built from reusable construction materials, such as scaffolding and polycarbonate paneling. The 20′ high “water line” allows panoramic views from high above the ocean surface and down below among the towering bergs.
We explored a fantastical glacial sea, slid down an ice chute, viewed the ICEBERGS from under sea level to 56′ above all while learning how design can transform a space and lives.

The colors
The warmth
Worked their way deep into our souls
Soaking it all in before it is just a memory
It is with a full heart and a full belly that I look out on this sea and see all of my blessings reflected back at me.
Our Thanksgiving day was much the same yet completely different. There were no groceries to buy, no tables to set. But there was family, beauty and celebration of the countless blessings that surround us.
The sky is blue.
The sea too.
Everything kissed by the sun.
It sits on my cheeks, it dwells in my heart.
Such ease, such simplicity, such a heaven.
