We had a fun week and lots of good food. We are enjoying our time in New York so much and are preparing to make our next move. Our sublet will be over on the 13th. We have been praying to find a place to live that we feel good about. We have found so many apartments but none felt right, and with the 13th approaching soon, it's been easy to feel nervous about where we will be going. But after fasting today, we found an apartment that we feel very good about and have booked it. It's still in Brooklyn, but more north. The Lord told us this is the place and we are excited to move there. It is simple and small, but clean and newly updated (which is not a common thing around here, since most building here are 100 years old).
This week we had some wonderful news from Serena's friends Rachel and Warren Powell who had their baby girl the week before. We are very excited and happy for them. Congratulations!
Wednesday, Serena had the opportunity to go with her first friend in New York, Linda, to a recording of the Martha Stewart Show. Even thought Serena is not a huge Martha fan, it was a fun opportunity to go, see the studio and take home some very nice giveaways. Mat was impressed with the giveaways and felt like going to the show as well just for the good stuff they give away. Soon, one of her shows will be giving away 1 million dollars...maybe that's the one we will attend next and we will be the winners! Who knows!
Friday is our date night. We had planned a day out at Central Park, to see the castle, ponds and many beautiful sights there...but we didn't do that. It was so cold, and so windy so we ditched out plans for the day, found a hot dog stand next to Juilliards, filled our bellies and headed across the street to the temple. It was a great place to seek refuge from the cold.
We hurried home and had some good food and watched movies...and that is how we spent the rest of the weekend. It was too cold to go outside, so movies and food was the best option. Mat made some Orange Chicken, we had Quiche, Potato salad, Hamburgers, French Fries...all homemade. We were filling inspired enough to feed ourselves well and our big tummies are proof of that. If you come to visit us while we are here, or wherever we live, we will be sure to feed you some of Mat's great Orange Chicken.
We hope you are all beginning to prep your upcoming Saint Patty's day outfits! We are hoping they will have some adventurous things to do here in the big apple.
We love you all. We hope you are doing well and know that we miss you.
Love,
Serena and Mat Peltzer
