Here’s the word from Fonda at Zuzu’s Petals.
At long last…a clutch of sunny days timed perfectly for the long weekend. Listening to NPR yesterday, I heard Brian Lehrer discuss the Staycation.
So what’s a staycation"
Turn off the electronics, park the car, and stay home…No, not on the couch like a potato. Get out in the neighborhood. Take a walk in the Park or The Gardens. Get together with friends. Do some cooking, and for our zuzugardeners:

The hunt for The New Zuzu is going well. Two lovely people started training this week and we are confident we will be fully re-staffed shortly….I was going to say, Zuzus don’t grow on trees, but….maybe…
I heartily and fervently recommend the “staycation.” I take three vacations a year, and one of them is always a time to stay in Brooklyn and do nothing. Spending the day in many Brooklyn neighborhoods is very relaxing and fun.
