It’s true. I made cookies one time. But this is actually an old picture. I think I’ve made cookies once since I’ve lived in this apartment, which has been over a year. I just never really think about cookies. Except Momofuku. I think about those. These cookies really have nothing to do with my weekend, [...]

Okay, here’s the deal. Went to an ice cream tasting at the New Amsterdam Market last weekend and met up with Hagan, who is a “real” food blogger. Not sure what I mean by “real,” but he definitely takes it more seriously than I do. Don’t get me wrong, I love you, City Mitten, but [...]

I love birthdays. I love birthdays where friend’s tell me what they want to do and where they want me to meet them. I’m always the planner and I know all the places I want to go to, so it’s nice to see some stuff on other people’s radar. The Jane Hotel. Strange. Eclectic. Old? [...]

Ok I lied. This post is not about ice cream. It’s about CRAB! Last night we went to a crab boil at Back Forty. Oh man. I had never been to a crab boil before and it was so much fun. And a lot of work. You gotta rip these babies apart and hit them [...]

Don’t you wish you could have brunch every day? That would be so nice. This particular brunch was at Roebling Tea Room in Williamsburg and I will always support and suggest Roebling Tea Room because it’s typically fantastic – especially their mac and cheese. And it’s really cute. In other news, went to the Yankees/Tigers [...]

I can talk about my professional life in my blog a little bit, right? Here’s the story: I’ve loved The Big Gay Ice Cream Truck for awhile now (Doug is awesome, for one) and when I started working with The Mermaid Inn, I thought, “Hey! Let’s do something together!” And so we did. :) BGICT [...]

It’s story time! Once upon a time, I lived in this tiny little craphole in the East Village. It was the East Village and that part was nice, but it was a craphole so it wasn’t. I rarely invited friends over, because it was a craphole AND there was nowhere to sit. I had guests [...]
