If I could turn back time......If I could find a way.....it may have been to the Roaring 20's with the rule breaking times of prohibition and shaking my hips to the Charleston. Since I haven't mastered time jumping, I'll have to settle for 2nd best, and that's the Jazz Age Lawn Party on Governors Island.

Looking for a weekend getaway from NYC, try Frenchtown, New Jersey. A great day trip, which is easily navigated with small shops and great antiquing. Walk up and down the main strip for hidden gems. These were my top places:
To Eat:
The Lovin Oven: Amazing Food. Farm to Table
To Shop:
Olive with a Twist: Homemade Oils and Vinegar (they have a bacon oil!)
Two Buttons: Imports from Bali, Antiques: I could have spent the whole day in here..it's a stimlulation overload with Antiques.
Left Bank: Cute interior and gift shop
