03.09.10 Praise the Lord for winters that melt into springs. “It’s spring fever. That’s what the name of it is. And when you’ve got it, you want–oh, you don’t quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!” — Mark Twain 03.01.10 Last week, at the suggestion of a friend from work (hi Leah!), we braved the snow to visit Henry Public, a new restaurant and cocktail bar at Henry and Pacific (the two streets we’ve lived on since moving to New York, oddly enough).
