Every January we begin our new year in New York preparing for the AC Show (a trade show focused around accessories).  It's cold and windy here and we're ill equipped with our our unlined boots and Vancouver coats that don't do up to the neck.  

We love to walk the city from end to end but with weather like this we've been foregoing any exercise for the warmth of countless cabs.  Tomorrow is set up - the day that we find out whether our crate made it to the site or not.  It's a lot of work and a fair amount of stress but we manage to find some time (and head space) for some shopping and lots of eating.  

Today we hit Barney's (lightly):  I bought an Opening Ceremony sweater and Danielle picked up a cognac silk shirt dress.  Tonight we treated ourselves to the tasting menu at Kajitsu, a vegetarian Michelin starred restaurant serving Shojin cuisine, an ancient Japanese cuisine developed in Zen Buddhist monasteries.  Pictured is a gorgeous clear broth with grilled mochi, tiny turnip, carrot and daikon ribbons.  Oishii!
