happy february everyone. not the most exciting of months, but for me of all the winter months it is my favorite. january is long, but it’s now over, and february usually goes by in a flash: our multiple anniversaries are tucked in here (we have the official day we got married before the...

maybe this is true in all cities, but in new york for the more utilitarian things there seem to be areas where these items are concentrated. for example, the wholesale flower market (smaller than it was) is located in the 20s off of broadway, the lighting district can be found along the bowery...
