I bought lunch at L'Orange Bleue in Soho (well worth it), then a bottle of Armagnac and one of organic gin from Holland at the Astor Place Wine Merchants, and seven sweaters/long sleeve tees at the Japanese department store on Broadway (two cotton tees, two silk and cotton sweaters, and three cotton sweaters, all v-necks (I only wear v-necks and they are hard to find), mostly black, but one caramel, one pale lavender, and one pale pink.
I need some groceries later.
