Connecting on Mid-Night Falls, July Part 4

Photo by Judy Cohen

Happy July to all. It has been HOT HOT HOT in New York and many places. Interesting how we wish for hot weather and find it annoying when we get it. I was in Manhattan on Sunday, attending a 90th birthday party. It was wonderful in every way. Living in Suburbia, I forget the feeling of towering buildings and throngs of people. A nice place to visit… I never wanted to live in the city. I hope you enjoy the next recipe. Judy
