Was able to get an arrangement to stay at A Little Inn on Pleasant Bay this weekend. (I’m hiding from NYC for my birthday for part of this week.) Here are a few super long exposure photos I took around midnight on the first night. You’d think I took them during the day if it weren’t for the stars in the sky:
Here are a couple interesting pieces I saw the other day while getting lunch in the ‘hood. Wall: Across from Cafe Habana and Quilted Bike: on Elizabeth near Broome.

mmmm, CSA day is Saturday in my neighborhood and it always seems to be a case of ‘how many CSA veges can we fit into our breakfast?’ This morning was a wonderfully fresh beet salad (red and candy-striped), and a sweet Italian sausage (thanks Staubitz) and CSA summer squash frittata with fresh CSA basil and eggs. Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm!!

Eating through Independence Day weekend continues: Incredible homemade dumplings tonight from Monique. (Made with the help of Andrea Nguyen’s Asian Dumplings book)
I just ate the best pizza of my life tonight at home. Fresh mozzarella and extra sharp provolone (from Caputo’s Fine Foods), oven roasted plum tomatoes, bell peppers, fresh basil (backyard), fleur de sel, and sweet italian sausage (from Staubitz) Independence Day weekend is starting out right!!
