Priceless Picks
They found food pictures I took at Nougatine on Flickr, sent me an email asking if I'd like to get paid. I said sure. They told me which pictures they wanted to use and told me to write a small blurb about the place. After they edited my copy, they gave me a bunch of release forms to sign. A month later, a check came in the mail. For my vanity's sake, I've been checking priceless.com every now and then to see if my entry has been posted. Sure enough, a few months later, here it is:

NYC Waterfalls
Last night of the NYC Waterfalls art project.
Of course, they turn it off 5 minutes early, so I couldn't get the shots of the waterfall north of the Manhattan bridge.

LVHRD BR CRWL
LVHRD BR CRWL
It's been a couple of months since I last went to a LVHRD event.
This one is a pub crawl in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
We started with some food and a beer tasting at the Brooklyn Brewery.
As we leave each spot, we're handed a drink ticket for a Dewar's cocktail. On the back of the ticket is a map to the next bar. We also received text messages of the next place. The theme for this event (there's always a theme) was summer whites.
The whole group (probably about 30) were mostly in white.
Good times, good friends, too much walking.
Starting Point: Brooklyn Brewery
Bar stop #1: Royal Oak
Bar stop #2: Larry Lawrence
Bar stop #3: The Bushwick Country Club
Glasses that fits in pockets are awesome!
We smelled this about 2 blocks away, while walking to the Bushwick Country Club

Gabe's Bachelor Weekend
Highlights from Gabe's bachelor weekend:
Fen Chiew - Chinese liquor bought from Chinatown. Has a hint of molasses and a very very potent burn (53% alcohol).
Beer Pong - pink cups, drunkenness
Lake - almost drowned. thanks for flipping over the canoe Colin.
" Colin: My deepest sincerest apologies for almost drowning you"
Fire Pit - I like to burn things.
Brats - sauteed and carmelized onion, deglazed with new castle, boiled brats till cooked, grilled to crisp
Conclusion: lake side cabins are fun - even though there were no strippers.

Food blog update
We went to a Chinatown staple for Simon's birthday. He even made "reservations". They sat us under the giant nylon orange lobster in the back. Everything has a tint of orange, except the Sunkist - that looked less orange.
Simon's cousin Kenny, Simon and the lobster.

Karma?
it's a known fact: parking in new york city is cutthroat.
it's gotten worst since gas prices have sky rocketed. it now cost more to drive around aimlessly looking for a spot that's not on the street cleaning side the next day. parking on the alternate day street cleaning side means car-sitting for 1.5 hours in the morning.
less know fact: people drive away mostly at the quarters of the hour. i've studied this (while waiting in the car for a spot).
yesterday: at around 10:01PM, after i sat around for 7 minutes, i decided to go around the block. when i made a circle around 23rd and got back to my block on 24th, i saw a car leaving. i put the pedal to the floor and raced up the block to each it. i saw a guy running to his car. i chuckled and said haha not fast enough. as i'm grabbing my bag from the trunk, after i parked, the trunk door comes down and chops me on my right tempo.
still hurts.
