The really great thing about living in NYC, especially Queens, is the incredible diversity. Just about every nation in the world is represented. As soon as we can (this summer?), W and I are going to embark on a restaurant adventure. Every 2 weeks we are going to have lunch at a different ethnic restaurant in our town. Whatever nation's cuisine we experience will also be the subject of study for 2 weeks. This goes way beyond a geography lesson and we're so excited to get started on it.
