brooklyn highlights

brooklyn’s growing on me… like a fungus it’s spreading pretty fast. we went out to a friend’s house last night and he showed us around his ‘hood and cooked up a storm on our return. i guess i can say that i was pleasantly surprised by the part of town where he lives... it certainly had “character”: old houses, terrific grocery stores and even a quintessential bookstore. all that being said, i still can forget about my dream of living in a manhattan loft. something about the unconventional design, high ceilings and an exposed brick interior gets me very excited. but i’ll have to hold off for a while... in the meantime, brooklyn may end up being an uber-cool experience.
