although i have gone up and down atlantic avenue a zillion times, only this weekend did i finally venture into girlcat. i have clearly been missing our or on the bright side saving money. this little shop, basically a shrine for all things designed by the very talented anya ponorovskaya, is a...

s. and i are off to chicago saturday morning, and in the rush to try and get ready for that (3 travels in one week make for one unhappy clam), my post lagged today but alas, here it is before we head out. in god we trust is one shop that i really cannot believe i have not discovered until now, and...

j and i have been going to café gitane for ages, maybe since it opened about 10 years ago or so. the super euro “elite” nolita spot with french-moroccan food has become a bit overrun and maybe overused (at least based on a lot of comments i read), with lots of tourists, reflecting perhaps...
