Happy New Year…google…311 !!
Happy Rosh Hashana! I just realized in typing the last sentence that, without the internet, I would have spelled the Jewish New Year “Rosh Shashana” but thanks to the fierce search engine that is Google, my gut feeling that I was incorrect was confirmed and my spelling was edified…
Earlier today, I ran into a neighbor on my way to repark my car after street cleaning. As I remembered too late to wish him Happy New Year (the elevator door had closed behind him) I did remember and hope that alternate side parking might be suspended due to said holiday. I dashed to the phone and the city’s recorded hotline confirmed it for me. Yes!!
Ah, the information age is wonderful…

Strawberry Fields
Yes, I am a Beatles fan, but I am talking about the cereal. I am addicted to the cereal. I just bought my last box and I plan to refrain from buying it anymore. It has the guise of being healthy with its freeze-dried strawberries and raspberries. The first ingredient is organic long-grained rice, and the second…”organic” cane sugar.. Even the box is 100 percent recycled cardboard. Boy, do they know the food coop consumer.
The food coop is a place where one overhears things like “What’s going on with that raw food love triangle?” The kind of New York conversation snippets that really are overheard…the kind that inspire captions for New Yorker mag cartoons…

Our Mac is in the shop and with it, our Itunes. I’ve started singing to myself my favorite songs that are in my broken computer.
Lucky for me, this week kicks off the 10th anniversary at the Living Room! Each night for two weeks there will be Living Room favorite performers. Suggested donation is $10.
If you are looking for something to do, go check out some great live music. You are bound to be glad you did.
We are going there next Thursday, March 27 to hear some of our favorite musicians including: Chris Brown and Kate Fenner, Ron Sexsmith, Tony Scherr, and Ana Egge.
THEN, we will return Saturday, March 29th to hear the one and only Crescent and Frost!
Both shows kick off at 7:30. If you want to go, I suggest to get there early as it will certainly be packed.

Collegiate Brooklyn?
My husband will be happy to learn that, according to the Daily News, Brooklyn is becoming more of a college town.
Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too?

Ruby winning the best costuming award at the omegacon convention her parents took her to, (yes, they are big Star Wars fans), has prompted me to finally start my blog. She is not even one year old and has won her first trophy. She dressed as Chewbacca and got to meet IN PERSON the real chewbacca – Peter Mayhew (the man’s 7’3″!!). Apparently he tours and signs autographs at sci-fi conventions for a small profit.
Ruby’s parents are proud.
