Die Nächste Tasse Kaffee

In case you haven’t noticed we have been a bit lax sharing our blog this year.  Perhaps we have been distracted by the addition of a new family member, perhaps we have been chasing other butterflies, but whatever the distraction, we love those of you who have been following us these past six (yes six!)...

The One about Friends

Twenty months ago, we drove up Highway 495, through the Lincoln Tunnel and into our Wonderland.  We were seeking our pink flamingos.  We were making New York City our home for a year and we knew no one. Our year turned into 20 months and we have made many friends.  We want to take a... Continue Reading →

I’m Shameless

Okay, I’m guilty, even before we get started, but I am an artist, and sometimes we are shameful self-promoters. For those of you living outside The City, the first Thursday in each month is known as Gallery Crawl.  Most galleries in the area open their doors, provide offerings of cheese and wine, and promote their...

Monday nights offer Jim Caruso’s Cast Party, open... Continue Reading →

Once Upon a Springtime

The Snow Queen has locked Dagny, the flower breathing dragon in the dungeon and trapped Princess Spring in her quarters to rule all four seasons.  Sir, Dillon, the knight in shining armor, riding his trusty green steed comes, to the rescue to release Dagny and melt the snow so Spring Princess can rule her season....

Puppies!

This week we celebrated National Puppy Day.  Our plan was to celebrate it by hiking over to Saks and checking out their adoptables in the famous Saks windows. We made it as far as 6th Ave and ran into a parade.  Like a dog spotting a squirrel we were off on a new adventure and... Continue Reading →
