We go hard

 

Monday night was a birthday continuation! We went to the Nets game at the new Barclays Center. And there was good sports and even better food to be had and I did my best to learn players' names. I had a beer! I got a team T-shirt! But then in the morning I read this article which made me feel like a BAD PERSON for having had fun and taken part in Brooklynsploitation.

"A Brand Called Brooklyn" by Norman Oder

But I think we'll go back.

My next book club pick, A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson. Trying out some nonfiction. I need to pick this up this week once I finish reading Fingersmith (which I think would have been a great book club pick because in my head when I'm reading, I'm thinking "Holy eff guess what just happened!").


I've been trying to be a good citizen of my neighborhood, supporting the small businesses etc., by buying my books at The Community Bookstore.

things that are great: corn dogs


Some occasions just call for fancy. Homemade, for the Super Bowl, using this nifty contraption.

Wouldn't you know this company also sells a pigs-in-a-blanket maker and a mini-donut maker?
