NYC Holiday Cheer

Had a long, languid brunch with Chelsea Girl and AT.  Lots of analyzing, dreaming, and goal defining for 2012.  Then CG and I braved the throngs of tourists on 5th Avenue to glimpse the tree at 30 Rock and the holiday windows, a tradition I've associated with Christmas since childhood.  Many years when  I lived in Manhattan, I avoided midtown pedestrian traffic from Thanksgiving until the New Year, but this year I longed to be in the middle of the frenzy.  Surprisingly disappointed by Lord and Taylor's display but delighted by Tiffany an Bergdorf's presentation.
