union sq.

this is where i fell in love with farmers markets! when i spent the summer in nyc this was my subway stop and every monday, wednesday, & friday i would get to peruse it before work & during lunch.  dont you think those radishes are just beautiful?? random, whenever austin and i first started dating i remember cutting fruit and talking about how pretty i thought it was. he thought i was crazy! now though, the hubs is totally used to it ;)

concrete jungle where dreams are made of.

there's nothing you cant do. these streets will make you feel brand new. the lights will inspire youuuuu. oh yes. i am quoting some jay-z & alicia keys. ha! dont judge. austin and i had such a wonderful trip and it was so great having 5 entire days with just us. i cant believe we've been married for three years! im posting some today but decided i will divide our trip out into different posts :) ps. chris martin the last picture is for you!
