10-things-217-1How was your weekend, friends? I escaped the city on Friday afternoon and headed to Upstate NY to spend the weekend with my friends Susan and William. On Sunday morning I hot-footed it back into the city to cheer on a friend who was running the NYC Marathon. All-in-all, it was such a wonderful weekend of great food, conversation and adventures! Here are my highlights…

1. Waking up in the Brinson’s exquisitely decorated guest bedroom felt so calm and relaxing.

    • @Marius – Not sure if it’s just the 7 Plus or not, but I do have the Plus so perhaps that is the case…?! It really is a great feature! Thanks for the kind words and have a fantastic Monday! 🙂
