Hillary and Sunnyside

My friend, Hillary, had her big 3-0 birthday in December and a few of us went out for brunch to celebrate.  Hillary lives out in Sunnyside, Queens.  It was recently rated very high (maybe #1) on the list of best neighborhoods to live.  I was excited to check it out a bit!  We started out at her apartment - her roommate made us delicious belinis to sip on as we chatted and while Hillary opened up some gifts.  For brunch, we went to a French restaurant around the corner.  It was a delightful Sunday morning!

I took a scrumptious candle to Hillary that I bought at a vendor I

discovered at the Bryant Park Holiday market.  These candles

are amazing!!  I bought two for myself and I never buy candles!
