my gorgeous (and unbelievably talented) friend, erica lives in tribeca with her clark-kent-of-a-husband, chris. (i blogged about their wedding, here).
oh, tribeca! to live in tribeca where the air is fresh and the crowds are sparse! (and the rent is sky-high).
they live there (at a great price, as luck would have it) in a single bedroom (in a hotel). the catch is..
there's no kitchen.
this would deter most.
not erica.
she cooks. without the kitchen.
and when i say cooks, i mean...really cooks.
erica being brilliant (as she is) has created a kitchen-of-sorts in the bathroom and a blog to go along with it.
today we met up in union square which (while i'm not really a fan of because of the huge crowds) has a massive and versatile greenmarket. and from there we headed home and the cooking began.
what i really love about erica's take on food is that she's adventurous about simplicity. and she believes in educating herself about what it is she's eating and why it's good for her.
i'm starting to think there's nothing like a time outdoors, good food, and girl-talk (intelligent girl-talk, at that!).
to see why i gush about this girl check out her very new and very exciting foray into blogdom.

This is one of my favorite posts! The picnic looks DELICIOUS and you are beautiful as always!
She makes cooking look fun.
and eating too.
unbelievable. and inspiring. that kitchen of hers. wow.
wow! she is so cool! i would cook in the bathroom too if it meant living in tribeca, but i doubt i would end up with a masterpiece like that. or anything even close.
you're making me miss new york so much!
Mmm, delicious and healthy! And why do you remind me of Audrey Hepburn eating the doghnut or dancing in Funny Face...?
wow. that's fantastic.
bathroom eh? it reminds me of krammer on seinfield. :)
that is awesome! What an interesting way to cook-- and she looks like she does it with precise skill! wow!
What an amazing-looking picnic! And I'm SUPER impressed by her use of space!
your pictures are so vibrant! i am jealous of that amazing looking day!
&& thanks for the link to erica's blog. i love discovering new places to get lost!
The picture of the market is so pretty. Makes me want to set up shop and open a lemon stand!
i really enjoyed checking out erica's blog! really great ideas!
What a scrumptious picnic! :-) I've been reading Erica's blog for a while and love it, and she led me to you! :-)
she sounds amazing! you both are so beautiful. and i want to go to that market asap!
I can barely cook in a kitchen, the fact that Erica is cooking what look like beautiful meals in her bathroom just blows my mind! Amazing.
That's amazing. I can't even imagine not having a kitchen and I don't even like cooking all that much. The fact that she can create all that w/o even having a kitchen just blows my mind. What's my excuse?
i've been seeing a lot of new yorkers picnic int the beautiful parks around nyc and i think i'm going to start doing this when we head back home. looks like you guys had a lovely day!
