David assumed the role of me last night.
He had a long day at the office and suggested I meet him for martinis at Taboon.
I was not dressed for the occasion having just spent quality time roving Central Park with Finnley and chasing every darn squirrel within 5 miles.
I used to love the color grey…not so much anymore.
Anyway, it’s amazing how a bit of lipstick, mascara and diamond studs can up the ante.
On the way, I cut over to 10th Avenue via 54th Street and ran into a homeless man having an aggressive, very loud conversation with himself.
Shoeless, he kept pace with me so I increased the pace and made a hard quick left on 10th Avenue.
Now, I was ready for the martini that awaited my arrival.
My handsome husband greeted me warmly.
We discussed our day and then had a NY extended minute with a fabulous couple sitting next to us at the bar.
One of the gentleman was wearing a Panerai so I already knew he would be interesting.
Turns out he is a private chef and spent a great deal of time satisfying Donna Karan.
His partner, the charming Serb, was a designer for Donna Karan and now designs for Uniglo.
We had a lively discussion about just about everything.
Loved them.
Listen peeps, this tete a tete would only happen in NYC.
I have received viable Botox referrals and stylist numbers in L.A., but never left saying to David that I loved the people we just met.
Call me prejudice, but only in New York, folks.
P.S. As we departed, I had a moment of pure insanity (maybe it was the martini) and asked my husband if should we renew our vows one day.
His pragmatic response…”Why, I haven’t broken any.”
