Even the boxes are gleaming.
My new Ginghers arrived today! (spring-action dress shears, snips, and leather scissors.)
Marco and Tiff go to Brooklyn, Part 2 (see Part 1)
With a more in-depth tour of Park Slope, we saw our first apartments and narrowed down the parts of the neighborhood that we prefer. We also learned some useful information from realtors.Most 2-bedroom units are priced with the assumption that they’ll be split between roommates, and they don’t tend to be significantly larger than 1-bedrooms. This is in line with what we’ve seen, even in Westchester over the last few years — we’ve never seen a 2-bedroom that seemed spacious. There are too many walls and doors and hallways. Even the 1100-sq.ft. 2-bedrooms we’ve seen have been cramped and poorly laid out.
We only wanted the second room for an office/guest bedroom, but many 1-bedroom units have enough space or extra alcoves to accommodate that. So we’re broadening our search to large 1-bedrooms, and the listings already look significantly better. Hopefully it turns out that way in real life, too.

The camera gets better, but the purse stays the same.
And I switched purses three times this morning before choosing this one.
All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt.
Red sky at night, sailor's delight
Tonight there is a red sky…
“When we see a red sky at night, this means that the setting sun is sending its light through a high concentration of dust particles. This usually indicates high pressure and stable air coming in from the west. Basically good weather will follow.”

I was analog all day today. When I got home I was about to get my camera out to dump the pictures onto my computer. Oops.
And I just bought a dress from the shop next door (teddy). I love Brooklyn!
This is offically my new favorite coffee drink (maple latte) and new favorite clothing store. We need to move to Brooklyn right now.
