I have seen the future

and it is NYC in August when the temperatures are in the mid 90's and the humidity is 110%. If you're anxious to get your body prepped for the coming climate change, I suggest you move there now.

But seriously, The City was, of course, Fabulous. I spent three hours at the new MOMA, looking at this, this and this, shopped here and here, (I wasn't really there to shop ... this time), and then here and here. Saw this on Broadway and this at Lincoln Plaza cinemas. Ate here, here, here, here, here, here and here. Also had a delightful chocolate souffle at this piano bar. Spent several hours lounging in the Park, and just luxuriated in catching up with friends as we wandered between pockets of air conditioning. An excellent and much needed vay-cay, so smooches to all who made it possible and so, so wonderful.
