S’Wanderings – NYC Books ‘n Art Supplies Day Trip – Part II
So, after gallivanting all around the city, I finally made it to…
…drum roll…

And, oh, is it one cool store.
There are erasers…

There are stickers…

There is a fun wall of pencil happiness…

And—oh, yeah—there are pencils!

But, check this out. Against all odds, I visited the store at the exact same time as this nice guy. He offered to model the gorgeous pencilware, and when I asked how to identify him, he told me to let you guys know that I’d met The Handsomest Man in the World.

So, how’s that for luck? Visit your local pencil store and you, too, may have a celebrity encounter. A big thanks to Handsomest Man for his help. (He recently graduated from culinary school, but with poses like this, look for him on billboards soon, nationwide.)

So, after hoarding pencils—surprise, surprise, I went a little overboard—I bid a fond farewell to CWP, and made a quick trip, (via subway, this time, much to the delight of my aching feet), up to the Bryant Park Winter Village.

After strolling the stands and kiosks, it was a quick jaunt back to Grand Central, and then a nodding-off ride home.

Cheers, New York! Hope to see you again, soon.
