Had a happy pi(e) day?!?

Yesterday I found out, by chance, that March 14th (3.14 that is) is National Pi(e) day.

A pretty obscure and nerdy thing, I guess, to celebrate the mathematical constant pi (π), which leads to pie.

OK, either you are completely lost or amused by the whole thing... of course I found it amusing :D

And this is how I have celebrated, with an apple crumble pie straight form the Green market!

Hula hooping in the park

How did this handsome guy know I want to learn hula hoop?

And he was rehearsing blindfolded... sounds good to me, as long as I can see what I am doing!

Wit on Broadway!

Exceptionally good show! Cynthia Nixon is a spectacular actress! I cried, sobbed and laughed.

The one downside? Only a few days left to see it. Go, if you have the chance!

Unexpected melody

The weekend had wonderful ups and a couple of downs... i.e., running an anti-virus scan on my MacBook, inconceivable!

As you can imagine, the unexpected concert on the riverside counts as an Up!

Happy weekend

What are your plans for the weekend? Things on my list: Broadway show, party, brunch... 

I'll be back soon, in the meantime, happy weekend folks!

How to cheer up a Gemini - 102

This is a fairly simple trick... although pretty weird, I have to admit. 

1. Show the world how miserable you are, until someone as crazy as you shows up at your door with a humongous Hello Kitty balloon. 2. Share you daily routine with the kitten... making sure that the giant inflatable does not scare you to death when you wake up in the middle of the night and you see it floating above your head!

Wildlife in New York... always breathtaking!

Looking up is always worth the danger of falling into sidewalk basement doors left open!

This naughty cutie was hunting a squirrel... after all, one has to make a living ;)

Music for the weekend

 

Finally I have found out their name... instant LOVE! Highly suggested, and the video is also interesting.

Art Gallery Crawl NYC

People making art for other people... and drinking wine. Can you think of a better way to spend your night?

More photos here.

And now... a donut! hahaha

Leap day... meh

I have to admit, I was full of hopes for the 29th of February. An extra day to play with, no reason not to be excited about it! 

Well, it turned out to be an annoying pain in the neck. This has been the highlight of the day, a relaxing-yummy break at my favorite Japanese bookstore and cafe.

Welcome March!

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... ;)
