Birthday tulips from Laura next to my bromeliad. Doesn't seem to be faring well this winter, I think it's too cold by the window. I love how the colors are a little hazy in the morning light.
Bright subway poetry - someone really took the time to do this lettering. The last and only time I wrote on a subway poster, I got a $75 ticket!!
Bonbon Oiseau at the Flea. I had to purchase a pair of earrings that I had my eye on (photo below). It's very hard to decide on what to buy because I pretty much want everything.
I've never seen this artist's work before. This is C215 who does crazy awesome stencils.
This morning I made this delicious English breakfast - it looks like a lot but it was pretty easy to make. I used B&M maple & brown sugar baked beans, which are DELICIOUS!! The beans are small and not mushy and the sauce is sweet and thick. Good.
The Hypnotic Brass Band at Union Square - great to watch and a really tight sound.
Some birthday presents I bought myself. New Bonbons, a ring made from recycled eyeglasses by Selima Optique, a Threadless tee by Miso/Ghostpatrol, and my one extravagance - Heavy Liquid by Paul Pope. I've been wanting this for a long time and it's been out of print until this edition.
Today we also watched Coraline in digital 3D. Visually beautiful and surprisingly frightening, with amazing animation. I liked that it wasn't completely CGI; there was still an element of tangibility. The 3D didn't really do much for it as the screen was pretty tiny - that was my only complaint. But definitely check it out if you can - very charming.

thanks for coming to visit A and i'm so glad you like those earrings! they're goingto looks so bad-ass with that cat woman with grazing bull t-shirt...
for real!
hmm, your bromeliad just might need more humidity. i keep mine right against a cold window, and it's fine all winter- but i water right into the leaf centers and keep the dish underneath it full of water.
it's a lovely photo.
d - i did wear the earrings w/ that shirt, on your suggestion!
a - the stupid instructions for the bromeliad said not to water it too much. dohhh. i do pour water directly into the leaves and i'll try your trick tonight.
