Good morning, everyone.

Highlights of my weekend included: Dior’s approach to their holiday windows on Greene Street (SoHo’s windows are giving midtown a run for their money); Alison Roman’s slow-cooked lamb with white wine and potatoes that my friends served at shabbat on Friday; starting Downton Abbey from S1E1 for my first time; and a staycation with my best friends from high school, which included dinner and a show (tableside Caesar salad assembly) at Golden Steer.

Today’s newsletter includes: The Infatuation’s Arden Shore on the difference between “chicken for two” and “sexy chicken,” Zach Weiss discovered that all you have to do to acquire a Rolex is to buy it on a cruise ship, founders are rethinking being the face of their brands, Zuck’s response to Jensen Huang’s affair was baking pavlova, 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge has a new owner (probably time…), and a case for buying a DVD player.
