I’ve been in New York for close to 3 months now.  I can’t love the food enough, and the hustle & bustle really puts you in your place.  How can you not love this city? However, as much as I’m an urban girl and love to be out and about…the times that I thoroughly enjoy the most is when I get a moment to breathe.  You’ll hear many New Yorkers say they like to leave the city for a quick weekend trip, just to get away from the madness.  It didn’t occur to me that I desired to partake in this as well.  Something that most people may not know about me is that my ultimate dream is to have a small farm of my own.  A girl from Chicago, who loved living in Seoul, love city lights, and now a member of the daily grind in New York is still planning on making this dream happen.  So when I stepped foot into Blue Hill, I instantly felt a connection.  Almost like I was home.  I seriously didn’t want to leave. 

Words are limitless to describe my recent experience at Blue Hill at Stone Barns.  A few of my co-workers introduced me to this place on our drive back to the city, after some long meetings in Connecticut late January. 

If you’re fortunate to take a break and leave town, even if it’s for a one-day trip, it’s so well worth it if you want to get recharged.  It definitely doesn’t take long for me to be ‘whole’ again.  I just need to squeeze in a little ‘Sarah time’ here and there and I’m in a happy place:)
