Amazing!

After an entire weekend of carving this 2,246-lb. pumpkin, a botanical beast at last emerged—tentacles and all! 🎃✨

This year’s finale was a marathon of crafting by Adam Bierton and Lenny Calvin as they brought this monster to life to the delight of thousands of costumed kids and families. And while this season’s Pumpkin HQ festivities are behind us, fall is only just getting started as the colors of the foliage reach peak and paint the Garden in bright reds, oranges, and yellows.

With kicking off this Saturday, Japanese chrysanthemums on view for Kiku, and fall beauty everywhere you look, make a trip to NYBG to celebrate the season at its finest. https://brnw.ch/21wDZSh

Of all the videos I’ve posted of my husband singing, this one is truly special.

The song, Stay Awake was written, (music and lyrics ) by my friend of over 35 years, Karen Sullivan Mattera, arranged and sung this evening at Holy Thursday services by my husband Gabriel DeAngelo. He was accompanied brilliantly by the talented Thom DeLessio on the piano. It’s a beautiful, emotional song that captures the essence of Easter.

When I sent the video to Karen, her reaction was priceless and says it all.

“Oooohhhhh My God!!! I’ve never been so moved. I just watched with my daughter. Speechless. Please tell Gabe his singing was perfect. The pianist too! I loved how he took time with the song..I could hear the emotion in his voice..and the stillness in the room. The whole setting was beautiful….I’m feeling very blessed….Thank you!
Absolutely wonderful ❤️🙏🏻”
