Crabapple jelly

Thanks Beth!



We exchanged: she got a haircut and Greg and I got this delicious homemade nectar!

We were saying, it's so beautiful that it almost makes you appreciate paintings like this.

Almost, but not quite. Sorry Mary Pratt.

Crochet drawing

Explaining the intricacies of a stitch to a knitter.



This makes me realize I haven't drawn anything in a long, long time.

Memory card

I took these pictures three weeks ago, a few seconds before I smashed my camera.





Beautiful Sunday-night snow in Midtown.

UPDATE

My camera has arrived. It is AWESOME. Many improvements on the G9.

Cheesecake

...with chocolate sauce made by yours truly.



Nice work if you can get it.

Hey, this is classy:



Did I ever tell you the story of how we got our cutlery? I came off the subway one afternoon to find a bag of knives and forks in the basket of my bike, which was locked up by the stop. So I just rode on home with them.

Apparently some of them were stolen from Paris Hilton?

I love the Internet!

I just bought this album on iTunes.



So beloved in my youth. We had the record, and I must have looked at this cover a thousand times.

(I have to listen to it when Greg's not home.)

New developments

Flowers, and new grafitti developments across the street.



You remember this, of course.

Can't say this is much of an improvement.

Ides of March



Happy birthday Andrew! The Grace Maternity Hospital's finest year!

But, um, worst snowman EVER.






















Erected in a dirt patch by the administration of a housing project in Chelsea. Vandalized months ago, not yet removed. Thanks a lot, housing-project administration (PS Your people hate this damn snowman!).

Three little cubs

You remember this little guy.

And this one.

But I don't think you've met the little cub on the left yet:



Sure he's got a few problems. But int he cute??



I think he was born a bit premature.

Happy Saturday Gregory



Very comfortable.

Setagaya

Good place to go on the way home on Friday night.



SO DELICIOUS! And open late.

(The egg is the best part.)

Meow Mix

Did you ever notice that this logo is really weird?



Is that supposed to be its INTESTINES or something?

How to make a designer want to die





Sorry.

The devil made me do it



(No, not cut my thumb off—spoil my manicure!)

Thanks for the flowers, Mr. Rockefeller!

Or, rather—thanks for letting us scavenge them after your Annual Corporate Luncheon at MoMA.







They do add cheer to one's humble dwelling.

Assemble-your-own-sandwich night!



I can get creative with eggs.

I can't help it!

I just think this is really, really cute.

I am working on a hat...

...the exact color of my skin!



And I am getting not a little perverse pleasure out of it.

Mmmmm. Flesh beret.

Special package!





Once again, eBay rocks my world!

Later on Saturday

On Saturday, after VOLTA, we went to an opening by my facebook friend Rachel Beach in Williamsburg at Like the Spice. It was so rad!





I can has this one?

























Pink and gold:



Skorl art, starring acorns!!



It's called Burrow.

Yay Rachel! Um, and I think I'll recognize you next time I see you.

UPDATE: Much better pictures here.

Then we went to the Boiler, Pierogi's new space.

Things started to get blurry so I just stood in a corner and pretended I was cool.






















It tends to be a good strategy.

It might feel like spring...



...but if the ground is wet, don't wear your white jeans!

One week ago

Can you believe it?

Reason to go to Larry Lawrence



He's friendly.



And he's got his own reserved table!

Purr.

Two hand-drawn signs

Chelsea:



This is very nice.

Williamsburg:



This is . . . I dunno?! But it makes me laugh.

Greggy took both these pics.

Saturday!

What a beautiful morning—let's take our coffee to the park!

Oh hey, the farmers' market! Sort of forgot about this place.



Taters:



Apples:



Mushrooms!



Coffee two ways:



Also: hobo pants.

View from the bench:



Greg creates a work of art:



Then we went to VOLTA (it was pretty terrible).
