Martha Stewart comes to lunch

In a blog post published last month, Martha Stewart (yes, the Martha Stewart) posted a snapshot-filled account of her drive through the towns of Rockland and Andes, both of which she found "charming."

The prompt for Stewart's journey was a lunch date with a couple of Rockefellers (yes, those Rockefellers) at the Beaverkill Valley Inn in Lew Beach, in Sullivan County. Here's what Stewart thought of the Inn:

I would love to come back in warmer weather to fish for trout and to rock on this wrap-around porch.

Then Stewart hopped over to Andes, where she admired the local architecture, complimented Fisk Barn Antiques, and bought a yellow plaid jacket at Clementine Vintage Clothing. Clementine's owner Misha Mayers got some special admiration from the style maven:

I saw something I really liked! ... Misha Mayers, the owner of Clementines, has worked in fashion merchandising for many years and has a real eye for clothing.

It's not every day that you get an endorsement like that.
