The Summer of Cristine

The Summer of Cristine

Christine Parmagiani, the girl who took Italian food to a new meaning and become a soul mate for life.

I met Cristine working at Hudson & McCoy.  She was that fun blonde from Merrick (the more upscale town next door to my home town) who I connected with instantly and become so much more to me than a summer fling.  I realize this could sound like “summer love” and that is exactly as it should.  We were inseparable and in so many ways I did fall in love with her. 

If you say the name Cristine, I think fun, inspirational, and true.

We share the same thought process.   She and I have a way about doing things that justify some radical behaviors to say the least.  Many people won’t ever understand the emotional experience and bliss one feels when holding a Louis Vuitton purse but she gets it.

Both justifying some radical behavior and in many ways see life in a perspective that is not only honest, but also thoughtful.  She sees every struggle as an obstacle or challenge molding the people we become. 

Our drive to where at what time?
