4. True. I've always said that NYC is a very cheap place to live, as long as you don't pay rent.

Boston is not as cheap as NYC, but also very live-able, again, if you don't pay rent (or real estate taxes!).

You know those figs I mentioned in my prior post? My next stop after the Haymarket would be a North End shops for prosciutto, bufalo mozzarella and some great bread. Grill or broil the figs and wrap in them in the cold prosciutto and eat with the great bread. Have a caprese salad and an ear of corn and some great bread.

And now I'm hungry.
