Eataly Tour

Back in August went to so what the big deal was surrounding Eatlaly's 3rd Birthday. This all about Italian food shop offers up everything you would want to make or eat an Italian supper.

Plain standard cups, like in a restaurant.

Then it gets fancier.

Got to have the tomatoes for the sauces.

A little cheese is always good.

Violet candies, never really liked them smells and taste like floor cleaner.

Ooooh caviar how upscale.

The bar is packed.

Great meat.

Of course pasta because I'm not make it from scratch.

Liquors of every size.

They even have a restaurant that was packed.

Instruction books to make your meal come out right.

Pepper mills and stuffed bears a perfect fit.

Colorful and pretty.

Fresh greens, wow this place has everything but affordable prices.

Italy is Eataly...probably not.

Riverside Park

Remember back in August when it was nice and warm. Well at least I still have pictures form my Riverside Park walk. This 4 mile park is great and has been upgraded. There are so many new places to see and explore I can't wait to get back there in the spring.

Greenway!

Steps I was never going to take and a shocked woman who didn't know why I was taking pictures of stairs.

Love the paths but get rid of the bikers.

Great place to walk.

They even have a fancy restaurant.

The ruins are always great to visit.

Awwww a couple in love ♥.

Which path to take? Does the left one lead to Walton's Mountain.

Oh it's like a game of Monopoly.

Not Monopoly pieces but Akihiro Ito's Forever, 2001 art piece.

Steps into the river, just in case you want to walk to New Jersey .

Great space but the giant uncooked silver turkey statue is distracting.
And an incredible sunset to end this mini-trip.
