Here are shots of Kirsten and I running around NYC with our pals Naowna & Annie in October ‘09. We stayed with them in Bushwick and ate amazing food…some highlights include Roberta’s pizza, Diner on Grand St (their bone-in ribeye killed me, ah so good with a shot of Gosling dark rum), brunch at Moto and arroz con gandules from the restaurant around the corner from the apartment. The taxidermy-wolf-pictures are from Nan’s place of employment, Alexis Bittar. We walked across the Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges, checked out Brooklyn Flea, walked some more, ate, walked, etc. I had a great time and I think I can sense why Brooklyn has pulled so many friends into its orbit over the years. I don’t have a great description of this feeling yet…

Our pal Naowna took us out to Diner on Grand last night…I died from pleasure sharing a bone-in ribeye while Kirsten dined on bass. Our appetizers were also amazing…roasted Brussels sprouts with a maple syrup & bacon fat glaze, muah ha ha. This was a nice way to end a rain-soaked evening…the finest food & catching up with old pals. Now we’re having brunch at Moto in Williamsburg…Naowna loves their grilled doughnuts. I am excited about a breakfast beer (Guinness & a shot of espresso).

If I moved to Brooklyn I would eat arroz con gandules every day, damn…muy sabroso. Then again, I could just buy some Goya gandules at Safeway back home & make ‘em every day. Having ‘em available at a corner restaurant is quite romantic & convenient, claro que si.

Bugged-out with Flying Lotus’ “Los Angeles” record, en route to Chicago, grateful for catsitters, wish I’d skipped a doughy bagel & had spam sushi instead

The biggest regrets I have in life are generally the things I didn't do.

Jeff LeMire’s “Essex County Vol. 1: Tales from The Farm” is excellent…a moody break from superheroes & gekiga.
