"Just wanted to write and tell you that I love your blog, it is definitely well written and fun. The “best $2K I ever spent” feature is hilarious. I do have one question though. You mention the street vendors in your post, however there was no further information about where they are, for which I am waiting in suspense because not only do I want my fiancé to have one, but a couple of the hats in the picture I can wear as well."

We here at GofG love feedback.  What a nut was I to praise hats as the best summer accessory and then try and exert my expertise on where you can find them.  I pretended to know what I was talking about, when actuality, I NEED to figure out where to find these hats I spoke so ardently about.  I know they exist, I've seen them on sidewalks on St. Marks place, but I would like a "to-go guide".  Which is why, intern Sarah will be scouring the city all day today, with the sole purpose of finding me some cheap hats.  Report will follow.
