I generally don’t like to lift other folks blog posts,and the posts on cuteoverload are so hard to resist. Just this once I’m going to have to give in and post this cute youtube movie of kittens.

2006 West Indian Parade Brooklyn

Tuesday, September 5th, 2006

We went up to the West Indian Parade yesterday along Eastern Parkway- great music – great food and some excellent costumes. We’ll be heading to Trinidad Tobago in February to visit my brother for Carnival so this was a great introduction. My brother tells me we are going to join a band for carnival, which entails wearing excellent (and barely there) costumes. Which outfit should we order?

great NYC store concept

Tuesday, September 5th, 2006

I happened upon a shop in the east village this weekend called Tiny Living. What a great idea! While I love traditional furniture – a standard round coffee table just isn’t going to fit in my 8ft wide living room – unless it is the only thing in there. Tiny Living has all sorts of nifty space saving do-dads, furniture and what-nots. In fact, I think I’m going to get the coffee table shown on their website. I have been searching for a narrow, bench like, coffee table for a long, long, long time. They don’t have a much of a site just yet, but when it does launch (summer 2006) we’ll let you know.
