The Green Coat — 6 Comments

  1. Beautiful story!! Memories as vivid as the green of your coat. I remember that area so well!! Your story brought back a lot of memories shopping with my mother.

  2. I can’t believe your amazing memory! I can barely remember what I did yesterday.
    My mom, who loved to shop, would drag us to Klein’s, among other places. I, however, don’t remember it nearly as well as you do.
    I do remember one of my favorite stores, was Martin’s, in Brooklyn. Since I was very tiny (size 3!), it was one of the few places that carried such a small size.
    Just as you remember that gorgeous green coat, I remember a beautiful blue suit. I felt so adult in that suit. I remember wearing it to the job interview that ultimately set the course for my career.
    Thanks for all the amazing memories.

  3. Loved this post. Really brought me back to coats my mom bought me and times of the end of innocence. Kudos for saving the day and more! PS ENJOYED Evans puzzle today!

  4. What a story about being robbed in your apartment, and then being violated with that coat being stolen – so glad you acted and got it back!
    Ah, the Klein’s floors, yes, I can still feel them beneath my feet.
    And my apartment was 245 Avenue C, 3-H – “as in Harry” also followed automatically, and remained a permanent part of our address.
    What a nice trip down memory lane….thanks for the smiles you bring on a Monday morning.
    Hugs,
    245
