7 Years of Maowage (a collaborative post)

Happy Seventh Anniversary to Us!

We celebrated by leaving the babe with Pop and Lisa for a nice brunch and a walk in the park. The reality is that we are rusty with going out and it didn't really play out as planned. We decided to walk across the park for brunch stopping first at our former Gristedes market, now a Dean and Deluca's. Cami got a very fancy bag of veggie chips. 4$. 4 Dollars!! That's almost as much as a gallon of gas. Well I guess they are both fuel. It seems we must have invaded the country that makes chips.

We walked across the park getting into a squabble along the way. When we got to the west side, all the brunch places had big lines; New York, Sunday, everyone has the same idea, duh. Starving and irritated, we ended up at a classic brunch place, the Three Star Diner. Essentially the Walden high-school cafeteria; it hasn't improved with age.

Back to the park, it rained, we bought umbrellas and sat under a tree. There was a parade finishing up along 5th Avenue and we pretended it was for us. In the end we love each other and that is what is important - it doesn't matter how we celebrate is it as long as we remember it and carry the love with us wherever we go. And Craig has promised hot dogs next year - or a knish, my choice.

Making the number "7" under an amazing tree in Central Park that will forever now be our seven tree.
