There is nothing more
glorious than a three day weekend. At a loss for what to do with your
extra day of sunshine?
If you find yourself in New York City, take a trip up the Hudson
River and visit the Dia Art Foundation - an
old warehouse that has been transformed into a modern art museum.
My favorite installations:
Andy Warhol
Sculpture by R. Serra
On the West Coast? You can also see R. Serra’s work at
LACMA.
No holiday weekend is complete without a trip to the California coast. Catch some rays and stop for lunch
at the fantastic Beachcomber Cafe - a cafe located on the water's edge in Newport Beach.
Further up the coast, camping
for people who don’t like camping:
El Capitan Canyon, near Santa Barbara, is a nature retreat
where you can unwind, relax and commune with nature - from
the comfort of your glamorous tent. "Roughing it" just got easier
If all else fails, there is always TIPSY LEMONADE AND PEACH ICED TEA!
Get your creative juices flowing:
INGREDIENTS:
2 large tea bags for iced tea
1/2 cup boiling water
8 fresh mint sprigs
4 cups lemonade made from frozen concentrate
1/2 cup vodka
Ice cubes
Slices from 1 lemon and 1 peach, for garnish
DIRECTIONS:
In a medium bowl, add tea bags and pour over
boiling water. Let steep 4 minutes. Carefully discard tea bags.
Place mint sprigs in a large pitcher; mash with a
muddler or handle of a wooden spoon until slightly bruised. Pour in tea,
lemonade, and vodka. Chill in refrigerator before serving.
Fill 8 highball glasses with ice. Pour tea among
glasses. Garnish with lemon and peach slices.
Cheers!
