April 02



It's nice working with somebody who can find and nurture beauty in the least likely places.

My doorman -- and good friend -- Ennio found a forlorn little azalea plant in our loading dock, thrown out by a resident and waiting for trash day. Ennio has a green thumb and didn't have the heart to get rid of it, so he took it, cleaned it up, watered it, and brought it back to health. Now it's in a place of honor by the concierge desk, so everybody can see it.

After this brutal winter, I needed a little green and a little prettiness to cheer me up, and Ennio provided it.
