The saturday before Easter always means a trip to Riverhead to the Polish grocery store on Pulaski Street to get a special kielbasa made for the holiday. This year the day was sunny and warm, so we were definitely in the mood for moseying around. We checked out some of the local architecture, which really made us feel like we had taken a trip to Poland.

After that we checked out Main St, and this shop caught our eye as it happens to be our house number too, so we snapped some photos, of 73MAIN

The proprietor/designer, Danielle Gisiger, came out and invited us in, much to our delight as she definitely has a line of well designed and made clothing, and a whimsical eye carrying all sorts of fun accessories, art, furniture………anything that captures her imagination.

And she was such a pleasure to meet, fun and talented, so Riverhead is now a destination, to shop here, as well as some good new restaurants, a great consignment shop and theatre.

But being the first day I felt the warmth of the sun on my skin, a walk on Cupsogue beach had to be taken, still a bit disheveled from Sandy, but so beautiful.

What a great day!
