Terraces, Olives Trees, and Roman Baths in Battir

There’s a quiet, terraced, Arab village outside of Bethlehem called Battir where water from a cold spring flows through an ancient water system to hydrate abundant olive trees and vegetables that have grown here for thousands of years.

A very sunny and very windy NYC day. With Cobblestones!
I’ve been enjoying and gleaning inspiration from oysters lately.
One year ago we were in the Sahara desert for the moving and memorable OneBeat Sahara concert (something our team at the US Embassy Algiers, and especially @adamsigelman, planned for years). I’ll always remember that sunny perfect day in the desert, music rising up over ancient rock carvings, the palpable excitement in the crowd of a shared once-in-a-lifetime experience.
I’ve been really enjoying going to to estate sales lately, poking through people’s homes for treasures, and going to antique stores (especially in Lambertville, NJ). Add in a good workout, a nice meal, and that’s my ideal Sunday right there.
Me standing in front of the Matisse masterpiece, Joy of Life. That man loved him some color, as do I. I recently had a Matisse-tastic day in Philadelphia and I want you all to know about the Barnes Foundation, a museum unlike anything I knew existed. Blogged about it on Next Dinner Party (link in my bio up top).
