I truly believe the world would be a better place if more baby showers offered sangria

Robyn's baby shower was held over brunch last Sunday at Calle Ocho on the Upper West Side. We could choose from 8 different types of sangria, making things more festive than a typical shower.

Fall centerpiece for the table. Yes, we’re Southern.


After the party, I walked through Central Park and stopped at the Neue Galerie on the Upper East Side. A Gustav Klimt exhibit just opened, actually the first-ever retrospective of this artist in the US. It was pretty disappointing to me because it mainly featured his sketches vs. finished paintings.
