This cold snap sucks!
On other fronts, We've been to Keuka Kafe; Nick's Mediterranean (not to be confused with Nick's Pizza); Sunswick; a weekend in Montauk; MOMA; the shops at Bryant Park and Two Boots Pizza.
I've also cooked: Big pot of sauce with meatballs and hot sausage; Turkey London broil baked with sauerkraut; Filet Mignon roast with pearl onions; and macaroni with red clam sauce.
I had the tattoo on my foot fixed. It never really took this summer. Probably the sun, sand and sunscreen issues. Hurt more than hell, but at least it's over now.
Montauk with friends was a great weekend. First time Michael and I have been away since Italy in 2008. We were due.
Thanksgiving is almost upon us and I am so ready for days of prepping; baking; cooking; table setting and most of all, having our family here! It's the greatest day of the year when we are all together.
Happy Turkey!!

Totally Slacking Off
That's what I have been doing with this blog. I admit my laziness. It's summer. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
We've been out to eat tons: Lobster Joint in Greenpoint, Sunswick in Astoria, Sato in Forest Hills, Agora Taverna in Forest Hills, Keuka Kafe, a wine bar, in Forest Hills, Don Peppe on Lefferts, Dirty Pierre's in Forest Hills, El Quijote in the city, Gypsy Wolf Cantina in Woodstock, Cafe Ole in Astoria.
Especially liked Keuka Kafe, it's on Queens Boulevard past Ascan Avenue towards Union Turnpike. Nick, the bartender/host/waiter was great. Jill and I sat at the bar, had wine and appetizers and loved it. Salmon carpaccio with mango salsa was totally yummy. I must have more. So much on the menu I want to go back and try.
Grilled octopus at Agora Taverna is still my favorite. Went to dinner with Jesse and he loved it also. I had shrimp saganaki appetizer and he had seared scallops. We shared octopus, salad and soup too. Fun!
Tonight I am going with Jennie and Barbara to Barosa, then we are going to the casino at Aqueduct. Never been and hope to strike it rich at the penny slots :) :)
