Who says exciting things never happen in small towns?

hey thanks for the pix: observer dispatch

A cow on the lam found its way into the fountain of Veterans Memorial Park, which is in our (husband) hometown. #truestory

See you upstate!

And then this happened…

See you upstate!

Total non sequitur but happy to find this back in cable rotation

See you upstate!

A scene from the 2007 straight to video feature film: Lifeboat

You’re welcome.

See you upstate!

Came back from lunch, getting ready to open for service when we noticed this…um, right out in front our shop. Gives new meaning to the term tree hugger.

He/She moves too, apologies for the Blair Witch effect but just because we own a smart-phone doesn’t mean we (husband) know how to use it.

And to think folks were concerned that the invasion of 7-11 would gentrify our East Village. Not. A. Chance.

See you upstate!

Our neighbor Michael put his studio on the market. The Daily News, a Mets publication wrote a feature story and CNN Money even shot this video.

hey thanks for the pix: david handschuh a la daily news

willing to battle it out with the doorman to score this bad-ass beauty

And of course we (wife) had to get in on the action. I’d let you watch, I would invite you But the queens we use would not excite you.

It’s crazy nice out folks an excellent way to end the corporate world working week. Think a little Herb Alpert is more than appropriate, wouldn’t you agree?

This grammy-winning song has been sampled by over 10 different rap and r&b artists. Not bad for a nerdy band geek. Bet Biggie Smalls Hypnotize is his favorite royalties rendition.

Waiting on beer deliveries this sunny morning, will have an updated draught list shortly.

See you upstate!

Last couple of days have been gross but looks like tomorrow will be the best day of the weekend. Probably should play hookie plan on leaving the office a little early.

Best way to enjoy the warm weather and sun while it lasts? Brown-paper-bagging it of course. And we know of the perfect wine to class up the occasion. #highbrow

Bohigas Brut Rosat Cava. Yup a pink drink, kind of like purple drank for grown-ups. Our sassy neighbor Tinto Fino carries it for only $16.

See you upstate!

Excellent #foodporn on the twitters this evening

@LeMonstreduVin was all: Simple is perfect.

Hey it’s no small feat wolfing finishing an entire bowl of our fettuccine and clams. In the immortal words of Nancy and Ann: But try to understand…try to understand Try, try, try to understand…..he’s a magic man

See you upstate!

Sorry folks, due to construction we will be closed today, Monday May 6th

can anyone find the instructions?

We’re installing new bi-fold doors to the storefront but of course the job is not quite as simple as we foolishly were led to believe. Apologies for being closed today but hey, could be worse – you too could be in the dog house with us (husband).

See you upstate!
