A taste of NYC

Tuesday, August 7, 2012

NYC I finally made it to the Big Apple. What a damn interesting city, you could visit for years, and discover something new each time. I was on the fence, about actually being able to live there, we'll see if that ever changes. For now, I'll share a few photos from the trip and mention a few "must sees" I stumbled upon in the city. Word of the wise for those Alabama trippers- dudes specifically, you WILL stand out if you choose to sport the typical polo, KAVU shorts, croakies & loafers- and not in the way you would like. On the up side, I found myself staring @ all the beautifully bazaar dressed ladies and gents. Not to mention the occasional curly haired kiddo & dog with a T-shirt or stud collar. Seems almost like pups were stretched as an accessory of sorts. You know... I'll wear my sneaks, bow tie & sneezing pug today. People watching on the subway will keep you entertained for hours. I will share some sneaky ritzy outfit posts later next week sometime.  

Lil Dilly bean accompanied me, and I was thrilled to catch up with best friend Emmy. I seem to follow her to all the interesting cities. 

Alright- roughly top to bottom here were a few of my favorite sites/areas. 
2. Greenlight Bookstore on Fulton Street - bow ties perched right outside. 
5. The High Line Park - Manhattan 
6. Tomoe Sushi- Manhattan 

That should be all for now. Like I said, all of this was done in one day.. Imagine what you could do living there! Heres to hoping for another visit very soon. Always more to explore.

CINDO-ATL 
CINCO de MAYO celebration in Cabbage Town, GA. Festivities: watermelon margaritas, full roasted pig, more avocados than you can count, pink lemonade hooka, cut off shirts, the biggest pot of beans I have ever encountered and one sassy 3 yr. old named London whose dance moves rivaled MJ.
It was a beautiful weekend filled with friends, exploring street corners, jazz in the street and some killer salted drinks. 
Always nice to get out of the city, and explore a new nook with some dear friends.
 Kuddos to a beautiful weekend. 
ATL...I will be back !

Doo Nanny- Seal, AL

DOO-NANNY
One large tambourine calus, a burning vagina (wooden sculpture that is), talented new friends, vivaciousrain storm, cappuccino and caramel rum, and some dancing tunes started off the weekend @ Doo Nanny.

This festival never fails to impress and amaze me. Being only my second year to visit, the Nanny sprouts, and quite frankly boasts, an incredibly engaging and talented group of southern (and northern ha) folk. From the raging artists and cooks, adorable kiddos in overalls and duck boots, wigs and feather clips, and some filthy feet, I left Seal, Alabama energized in anticipation of next year.

It seems like escaping the daily routine really jump starts your thoughts and creativity. Lily and I were surrounded by some quirky and sincere friends this rainy weekend. Here are a few photos to prove it!

If you do not know of Butch Anthony, or the Doo Nanny, I invite you to take a peak, and even tag along for a weekend next year that you will never forget. Not to mention Butch's house...everything seems to have it's perfect place. The overlooked, the discarded, the forgotten- it all gets transformed into a handcrafted colorful oasis. Something you simply have to see to believe.

This was a little taste of my excursion a few weekends back.
We thought it fit nicely in this field on our way back to Birmingham, the pond and fog was irresistible to snapshot. We walked a solid 300 or so feet carrying this large head, across a field, to a pond. If they were to look out their window, a confused fright would have set.
