Our One-Day
tours this Fall
took everyone
to different
parts of NYC.
September brought
us to the Bronx,
and our tour
of 'the other
Little Italy', were
we sampled fresh
mozzarella and
olive oil at Mike's
Deli located
in the Arthur
Avenue Market. Everyone
enjoyed the Tuscan
wines which we
sampled at Mt.
Carmel Wine and
Spirits. This
store has an
excellent selection
of Italian wines
and liquors.

Spooky Trails!
In October we
toured the Greenwood
Cemetery in Brooklyn,
which was established
in 1838. It
is one of the
world's great
historic cemeteries
and offers a
panoramic view
of Manhattan
and the New York
harbor. |

The Chocolate
Show in
November was
a chocoholics
paradise! Before
the show everyone
had the chance
to explore the
six - floors
at the ABC Carpet
and Home store.
The first floor
had beautiful
Christmas and
holiday displays,
which put everyone
in the spirit.
We had a delicious
light lunch at
Le Pain Quotidien
before heading
over to the show.
At the 8 th annual
Chocolate Show
were many exhibitors
offering samples
of their delicious
chocolates, cookbooks
galore and culinary
demonstrations
offered at two
theatres. We
all concluded
that it satisfied
our craving for
chocolate and
it was well worth
the adventure! |
The sold out trip
to Grand Central
Station and Holiday
shopping will take
place at the end
of November and
I am sure all of
us will have a
wonderful time
touring, sampling,
having lunch and
shopping for the
holiday! |
