ALEXANDRIA NORTON IS THE YOUNGEST OF THREE IN THE NORTON FAMILY. ONE THING YOU CAN COUNT ON, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE QUARANTINE IN NEW YORK CITY BEGAN, IS CREATIVITY.NORTON STARTED DOCUMENTING HER FAMILY LOCKDOWN EXPERIENCES, CALLING THEM “CHRONICLES”. A FUN PLAY ON WORDS.BUT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU RUN OUT OF IDEAS? DAYS TURNED INTO WEEKS AND WEEKS TURNED INTO MONTHS AS IT BECAME CLEAR THAT QUARANTINE WAS NOT GOING TO BE SHORT TERM AND CHORONACLES WILL BE AS NORMAL AS GOVERNOR CUOMO’S BREIFINGS.SO WHAT ABOUT FATHER’S DAY? WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU HAVE DONE EVERYTHING YOU CAN ALONG WITH OPTIONS BEIGN LIMITED THERE WAS GOOD FOOD, GREAT DECORATIONS, FAMILY AND FRIENDS. AS TIME GOES ON, GOVERNOR CUOMO OFFERS MORE LENIENCY AND FLEXIBILITY. IF THIS QUARANTINE TAUGHT NORTON ANYTHING, IT’S THAT THE POSSIBILITIES OF HAVING A GOOD TIME DOESN’T END WITH RESTAURANTS AND PUBLIC PLACES. THE OPTIONS ARE LIMITLESS.

QUEENS, N.Y. (N.C.C. News) — Alexandria Norton and her family have always been enthusiastic and creative. They always go above and beyond to celebrate a person and reassure their appreciation for said person. But what about when you lose a number of options due to a global pandemic?

That is no problem for the Norton family. On Father’s Day the family prepared a prefix meal that allowed for beautiful presentation and a more sanitary alternative to a classic buffet; and they decorated the backyard to create an elegant ambiance.

Alexandria and her family are prime examples that the quarantine can’t stop the celebration. No restaurants? No problem!
