April 16
Another busy little day, beginning with a
dental appointment at 9:30 A.M. Mums and I
went into New York and shopped divinely. I
bought six lush dresses for spring and summer
and a hat, and am in love with all of them: –
a black and yellow two piece print, a grey and rose
silk print, a bittersweet shirtwaist; a white shantung
with colored-embroidered pockets; a luggage wash dress
and a brown two piece sport suit. They're all
darling. After contentedly shopping, we had a yummy
lunch at Rogers Corner, eating in time to music by the
Corn Cobblers, and then we met Cary in front of
Madison Square Garden to see the Greatest Show
on Earth – Barnum & Bailey and the Ringling Brothers
Circus. We had a riot of a time and felt like 8-year
olds as we devoured pink fluff, hot dogs, and
peanuts and stared fascinatedly at the trapeze
artists, lions, elephants, horses, clowns and the like.
Mum and I met Dad for a delish dinner at the
Hotel St. George in Brooklyn, and chatted awhile
there. Nana was here when we got home.
