tenement part 2

Since I ranted on about the state of the building I live in, I thought it’d be fun to post pictures of the latest incarnation of what my apartment looks like now (I know I keep saying MY apartment, but yes Mr Weiss does live here) he gave up his FABULOUS massive Brooklyn Heights apartment [...]

tenement

Yes people I live in a dump.  Whilst my country estate is, I think rather gorg, my city dwelling is a friggin nightmare.  I’ve lived here for so long I’m practically part of the wallpaper, if I had wallpaper.  I can also say with confidence that I have contributed to at least 15 of the [...]

a new york moment…

Yesterday, for the big THREE, we decided to have a New York vacation day… which means taking advantage of living in a city such as this… so we put on our “glad rags” and stumbled off into the day.. First stop,  we had a small breakfast in the courtyard at the MOMA… had to get [...]

buckwheat rules

raita

It’s fun cooking with friends… well at least it can be and it’s especially fun when you’re making a “joint” dinner and if your part of it consists of this ridiculously easy deliciousness and the other person is slaving away making the guts of the dinner, which by the way was utterly fabulous.  So thank [...]
