Wrapping up a 3-day weekend which I’d planned to spend cooking and crossing things off my to-do list, you know like filing my taxes… well let’s just say I got side tracked. After Friday’s insanity of a long day at work and an interesting cab ride home, I slept in. Though I did manage to … Continue reading
We’re having a snowstorm. The weather people insisted on calling it Nemo… weather people’s kids must get picked on a lot. Predictions were for the hardest snow fall to hit the City of New York between 4-10pm. Its 10.30pm, there are maybe 4 inches on the ground but its meant to snow till 1pm on … Continue reading

I’ve been without a fridge for the last 9 days. Yes, those things do have an expiration date. The first 3 days were also without an oven since when the fridge died it blew the oven’s fuses. After throwing out a ton of dairy/eggs and various perishables… there is only so much a single person … Continue reading
When a new business opens in the neighborhood I make a point of going. Not only because its important to welcome a new neighbor but also because it is a great way to see how the neighborhood demographics are shifting. Last Thursday, Tooker Alley opened. It is a bar. My favorite kind of local establishment. … Continue reading
