Reunited 356.034
Years ago my favorite Snapple was the green tea. It was hard to find so I was always happy when I found one. Then it disappeared completely. In the past few years they've brought back the green tea but I've only found it with fruit flavors or as a diet drink.
At Target this weekend I found my plain, simple, non-diet green tea.
Reunited and it feels so good.

He's very pleased with them.

Bronx Love 365.041
One of the things I love most about the Bronx is the buildings. Particularly along the Grand Concourse.
While many of them are a bit worse for wear you can still see the grandeur that was evident when they were first built.

poe cottage 365.043
This was the house where Poe spent the last years of his life. He moved here for the fresh air when his wife Virginia came down with tuberculosis. The house was relocated and a park was built around it.

parkway 365.044
The Bronx has more greenspace than any of the other 4 boroughs. This is Mosholu Parkway. On weekends when it's warm you will find families grilling, playing football and just laying around. Nearby there is also Van Courtlandt Park, Oval Park and Poe Park.

4 train 365.045
I love the subway. I really love being close to 2 subway lines but the 4 is my favorite. I love riding above ground and looking out the window. It brings out the kid in me.

sleevage 365.049
I always start sweaters by doing the sleeves first. This way if I have to rip back for any reason it doesn't hurt as much as if I was in the middle of a back or front.

I have a swift and a ballwinder but my original ballwinder is still my favorite. My husband takes yarn ball rolling very seriously. It's practically an art form for him.
