only in New York,

will you find a weenie dog walking in the park wearing a hat and sunglasses! Notice, if you will, the onlookers gazing in astonishment in the background.

[Thanks for the picture, Pamcakes.]

no turkeys

No one had any turkeys but I did bowl a strike! And I did beat a few people...

Brendan and I went bowling a few weekends ago with some friends in my small group, Monica and Kevin. (Or rather, Monica is in my small group and Kevin is her boyfriend.) We ventured over to Leisure Time Bowl in Port Authority, which (surprisingly) is a really nice bowling alley. We had a great time until we were kicked off our lane for the next incoming reservation. But, luckily, since the night was still young we decided to stroll through Times Square and act like tourists, hence the picture above of Monica pointing to the beautiful lights. This gave bowling a run for its money... Brendan suggested we ask a tourist for directions somewhere, but I couldn't stop laughing long enough to do it. Next time....

save the animals...with dawn!

In light of the oil spill in the Gulf, I thought I'd post this adorable (and sad) commercial from Dawn.

[I copied it from my friend Dana's blog here.]

costco trip

It really is amazing what you can do in the suburbs, such as buying chocolate chips in bulk. However, getting it all back (and stored) in the city tends to create a puzzle...

is it spring?

Yesterday, I would have said yes because I was relaxing in the sheep's meadow on a blanket in shorts and a t-shirt. Today, I've been cuddled up in my apartment all day wearing pants, a sweater and a puffy vest. Warm weather, please come back to stay!
