What does 4 million dollars look like?
Here’s what Amazon had to say about what 4 million looks like: “We’re incredibly excited to announce that Amazon has purchased J.K.

But despite the weather yo-yo, one look around New York City and you know it’s Christmas. Actually, it’s been Christmas since before Thanksgiving since everyone seemed in a rush to get up the holiday decorations. This is a shot of the front of the Lord & Taylor store on Fifth Avenue. During our annual Christmas in the City jaunt, this is one of our must stops to check out the windows. Continue reading “Wicked Wednesday – South Beach Sizzle”
