I have lived this on visits with the author and her husband and she is spot on.

I love this and would like to make a couple of suggestions. Instead of recommending the trendy Magnolia Bakery I would mention Rocco's, that has the best eclairs and the best cannoli. Added to the bookstores is Three Lives on the hidden corner of Tenth and Waverly in the Village. And as far as quirky, unknown museums, there is the odd little Nicholas Roerich Museum on 107th (might be too far) that is an entire townhouse devoted to the work of one man. Your tour-takers are lucky to have you

These are great suggestions! I love Rocco's, too, and Three Lives & Company bookstore is another perfect little neighborhood bookstore. I have never been to the Nicholas Roerich Museum --- I will fix that right away! :)

That's one of the reasons I like the Roerich....because no one's heard of it
