A Big Apple a Day: Day 2


A man named Elio owns the Italian Restaurant, Ancora, located on the ground level of my office building. He wears a tux to work every day, and can most often be found outside the front doors, welcoming his patrons with a broad smile and a firm handshake.

On days that I take a lunch - on days like today - I see Elio twice. Once on my out of the building and once on my way in. Both times - in fact, every time - Elio greets me with a "Hello, Princess" and a kiss on the top of my hand.

Even on the gloomiest of days, Elio manages to brighten mine. Today was such a day.

Grazie, Elio.
