| Santa Fe Plaza (from The Monumentous) |
The Sunday before last my husband and I went to the Santa Fe plaza for a day of sightseeing and shopping. The plaza is a must-see destination for visitors, with its unique shops, excellent restaurants, great museums, and many historic sites. Although most of the items in the plaza shops are way out of our price range, these places are great for window shopping. One of my favorites is the rug room at Malouf on the Plaza, which is packed with colorful woven rugs in a vast array of patterns.

My husband's favorite plaza shop is Andrea Fisher Fine Pottery. Pottery collecting is my husband's passion, but we do try to restrict his purchases to one a year as these fine pieces are not inexpensive! We found a gorgeous pot that both of us loved, and my husband made his annual purchase that day.

One goal we achieved while in downtown Santa Fe was the discovery of the best bagels in town! Boultawn's Bagelry, Cafe & Gallery advertises themselves as being the "Home of New Mexico's Best Bagels" and as far as we are concerned they are right! They are not on the plaza, but close enough to be convenient, and they are also just down the street from The Cheesemonger's Shop, another favorite food establishment of ours in Santa Fe. We stocked up on bagels as well as a few specialty cheeses, and then headed for home well satisfied with our day. If you ever come to Santa Fe, make sure that a visit to the plaza is on your to-do list!
