❤ Hunting for Easter Eggs & Michelin-Quality Ceramic Treasures

Plus, Elmo dances in Dutchess & Westport welcomes Wyclef

March 24, 2026

 

How are you doing Westchester?!

 

Easter is just around the corner… along with school break, and an unreasonable amount of chocolate we’ll all just have to get through. On that slightly naughty note, tomorrow is International Waffle Day, so there’s another excuse to ditch the fruit and lean fully into maple syrup.

 

You can feel the shift now… conversations starting to lean towards spring and summer plans in the sunshine. Thoughts drifting toward T-shirt weather, being outdoors, cooking outdoors, eating while listening to live music outdoors… generally doing more of life out in the open.

 

We know some of you are starting to think about getting away over the break… whether that’s next week or the one after. While you’re busy planning, you don’t have to overthink what to do here. We’ve got you covered right on your doorstep. There’s plenty…

 

A night hike with amphibians making their once-a-year appearance. A seasonal session at Stone Barns that leans fully into this time of year. And Connor McGinn’s studio opening its doors again… one we almost hesitate to include because we’re such big fans. Our kitchen is full of his pieces, and we’ll absolutely be there trying to get our hands on a few more… so yes, come… but maybe not all at once (we’re only half joking)!

 

Have a wonderful week and we’ll see you Friday for more.

 

Let’s get into it…

🏡 Where the Heart Is

Incredible homes are listed in Westchester every week. Here’s one that caught our eye…

 

21 Kitchawan Drive is a 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 3,956 square foot colonial from 1922 on over 1.2 acres in one of Chappaqua's most desirable neighborhoods. This home has all the character you'd want from a 1920s house but with modern updates throughout. The living room has a gorgeous stone fireplace that's perfect for relaxing at the end of the day. The dining room opens to both a patio and an enclosed porch. The eat-in kitchen connects to a family room with tons of natural light. There's also a rec room with French doors to a wisteria-covered deck and to the front porch. Upstairs, the primary suite has beamed ceilings, an en-suite bath, and a huge walk-in closet and outside is a private oasis with a fire pit, tranquil pond, and a stone patio with an outdoor kitchen.

 

Close to Chappaqua Metro-North (about 55 minutes to Grand Central). Near Southern Table Kitchen & Bar, The Raconteur, and Lulu's Kitchenette. Horace Greeley High School (rated 10/10) nearby.
