Dead Horse Bay treasures

After more than a month from my last trip to Dead Horse Bay, I am still cleaning my finds and thinking about ways to display them.

The butt is still my favorite tho, it makes me laugh all the times!

Photobooth with (reluctant) cat and a link

I haven't posted a photobooth in a while. And if you want to know the secrets behind this one, I have a precious link to share with you http://photoboother.com/
Photoboother lets you create your photobooth strips from your digital pictures! A bit less charming perhaps, but fun fun fun!

Oscar party tonight!

Are you ready for the betting and the drinking contest? I am, let the red carpet parade begin!

The Meal, self-portrait with food

Today at 12pm EST I took part to The Meal, a global snack project organized by the Art House Co-op.

And this is myself with my meal: linguine with mixed vegetables, olive oil and herbs.

Ah, the book is Poe's "Complete Tales & Poems", a suggested reading to expand your thesaurus (hello, old English!).

Drinks lately

Alternative cosmopolitan and Aperol spritz. Of course, I like them only for the way they look, not for their taste... ;)

UpGemini featured photographer on OneNewsLive

It is with pride and with a great deal of emotion that I share this link with you!

This is what Mr. Eric wrote in his article on OneNewsLive.com
"Even though Whitney Houston’s funeral was an exclusive and invitation-only event, that didn’t stop hordes of fans and news crews from making the tribute pilgrimage towards the Newark, NJ neighborhood where the service was taking place. Some congregated in the public spectator areas with binoculars in hand. Others came together at local places of business to watch the service unfold on television.
OneNews user, “UpGemini” was on hand at a burger joint just outside the police-restricted funeral area -- a vantage point from which she was able to document some unique details of the day.
Here is the conversation I had with her..."

Spider-man in action

After spotting Spider-man in Times Square a few days ago, I feel much better about living in the city.

"Go, web! Fly! Up, up, and away web! Shazam! Go! Go! Go, web, go!"

Tribute to Whitney Houston

Today I have witnessed how much she was loved, at a gathering in Newark, NJ, in the occasion of her funeral. 

She will not be forgotten.

The Year of the Dragon

Parades are one of my favorite things. You get the chance of being in a noisy, colorful and smiley crowd. Loneliness? Ah!

The atmosphere at the Chinese New Year Parade was so warm and cheerful.

Hello, cute little blue dragon :)

Let's just do it

Talking about Valentine's day, that is.

AWWW

OK, done! We can move on now ;)

And yes, they were truly in love, I have spotted them at Grand Central, NY.

Way way too lazy

Brooklyn, Sunday morning, drinks last night, freezing cold out now...

the only effort I could make today is to reach the local donut heaven! hehe

The funny side of jazz legends

Bucky Pizzarelli and Howard Alden giving an amazing performance at The Picture House, Pelham, NY.

Ahhh, I love when musicians enjoy themselves and let their silly side shine! :)

I will be right back

After three days of photoshop, almost non-stop, this is how I feel...

I will try to be more charismatic next time, now I need eye drops!

The dangers of facebook...

I am so glad my paleolithic cell phone does not connect to internet

hehehehe

Street art happily spread throughout Dumbo, Brooklyn. You might remember the horse sign...

Chinese New Year, the party is not over yet!

 This is the scrumptious dinner my bestfriend made for a restricted number of lucky gourmands... I was one of them!

The Three Cups Chicken, a Taiwanese specialty, was exceptionally good. Fresh basil and ginger? A win-win!

Two weeks of celebrations, eh? This is taking the holidays pretty seriously, I like that!

Wearing egg pants to lunch

Premises. 1. I am IN LOVE with Liz Kinnmark's Egg Pants. 2. Soft-boiled eggs with soldiers are one of my favorite comfort food... and the term just cracks me up!

I am telling you... egg pants are FUN! You'll see them again (maybe not just for eggs, but don't tell Liz).
