Greetings friends! I hope you’re having a nice week. Mine just got exponentially better upon discovering that the Conservatory pool on the east side of Central Park has been filled, in perfect sync with the spring flowers popping all around its perimeter. (Pro tip: Sit there early on a weekday morning with your coffee when it’s about as quiet as it gets.) In reading news, I’m embarrassed to admit that it took me a little while to get into my Jane Eyre re-read, but now I’m writing this newsletter as fast as I can in order to repair thither to the couch and finish. (Who is with me?) Lastly, thanks for all the enthusiasm around last week’s Twenty-Something’s Guide to NYC Restaurants, which I suggest serving as your official punch list of spring if you’re local. Herewith, your Three Things…
