Before one of us gives you an update on the weekend I should tell you about the theater performance we or I have seen.
Through a discount website for theater lovers under 36 (just!) I got a matinee ticket for 15 dollars for the musical ‘A Sunday in the park with George‘ on Wednesday 18th. [...]
It’s still hard to keep up a regular update process on this blog. I’m more and more impressed by the way Nicky and Viktor did that when they were in Munchen (and they’re still keeping it up, good work!). Anyway, this is just a summary of some stuff we did over the last couple of [...]
Today is the first nice warm day without humidity! A rare phenomena so I’m really enjoying it. It doesn’t mean you don’t sweat but you can go out without wearing buckets under your armpits…(yeah, my bucket’s got a hole in it…lalala). Sorry, almost burst in to singing in the middle of a Brooklyn Starbucks. So [...]
In the coming days I’ll try to catch up on some older stories.
Friday June 6th I dragged Jacco to a reading of two comics writers/artists, organized by the Museum of Comics and Cartoons. The first author was Art Spiegelman from the awards winning garphic novel Maus and the other person was Gary Panter whom [...]
This Monday I had an appointment at Crops for girls, a hairdresser in the Lower East Side that only does shortcuts. Well, that sounded like something I had to try! I already read on some website that he is the only one in NY who is that specialistic and that there was no point having [...]

Another dinner with Roland and Wendy, and this time we choose Mexican. There are many simple Mexican restaurants in New York, and we first tried to get into ‘La Esquina’. Although I tried a reservation two weeks in advance, I could only get a table at 23:45. That seemed a little late for us - [...]
Yesterday my bike arrived! I ordered it about a week ago, from bikebuyers.com, and it was delivered yesterday. Since it still needed to be assembled, I took it to a bike shop. They assembled it, today I went to pick it up. I bought a lock and a little horn, and I cycled back to [...]
When we decided to start a blog, I was convinced I would write about every restaurant we would eat at. I guess I did not expect to be eating out that much, and that writing blog entries is that much work. It really takes a bit of determination to write something. And to be doing [...]
With an almost three-hour delay, Wendy and Roland arrived in New York yesterday. They are our first guests, and it was fun seeing them here in New York. Of course, by the time they got to their Bed & breakfast place, they were quite tired, with the filght and time difference and all. But we [...]
Well, you probably already have seen the pictures. It’s a nice, tiny home but will do fine for the next couple of months. An advantage of a small apartment is that it cools down faster when you turn on the air conditioning, or as Jacco just told me it’s air con or ac. I’m [...]
