6 Things I Wish I Did in My 20s - part 1
Sex and the City, a Greek feast, moving to NYC, career and friendship
New Yorkers were blessed with a few 10/10 weather days, so I was outside a lot, out in the backyard, out in the neighborhood, and out in the city. I went to see Carrie Bradshaw’s apartment after brunch on Sunday. It’s got a chain over the front stoop with a private sign, so I only took some photos and left. It’s so nice walking around the West Village when the weather is sunny and cool. I can’t wait for the fall.
This week, I feel like I finally can breathe because I am all caught up with all 6 seasons of Sex and the City including the 2 movies. I end up powering through all of the live episodes of And Just Like That..., and I’ve got to say that the reboot is ruining all of the greatness that the show in the 90s has done with all of the trying hard to be politically correct and relatable. I’d agree that it’s a missed opportunity.
So so far, I have these TV show distractions to blame because I’ve hit many writer’s blocks recently. No more shows for me until winter! Thursday is usually the day that I make myself write. But after staring at the empty substack page for hours, at 3:30 pm on Thursday, I had the sudden urge to make a whole Greek feast from scratch. So I let a bag of frozen chicken thighs thaw, threw some beets in the oven to roast, and ran to a local bodega for a can of chickpeas (to make beet hummus!). It was a fab meal, and I especially loved the pita bread.
