Its a great Saturday after museums visit, a Viennese Cafe, for a clear white wine and apple strudel.

A masterpiece of LGBT art has been restored in what may now be the most valuable restroom in America.

I discovered the Frick my first week in New York, during a heat wave in August. The galleries were surprisingly empty, with only the occasional visitor strolling through the rooms, gently creaking the floorboards. I stood for a while in front of the Bronzino, a portrait of a boy standing against a background of green drapery, and then sat in the courtyard for a long, cool hour.

Delicious soft scrambled egg, cracked pepper and speck for breakfast or lunch :-)

Summertime in Bushwick, means the locals will be barbecuing on the sidewalk, and playing in the hydrants. It's the perfect time to grab some shorts, and run down the street. If the one outside Mckibben isnt going off, one of the other 15 hydrants in the neighborhood will be.
