Meeting Elmo /
A few months ago I went with my brother and his family to "visit" Elmo. We thought the kids would be elated to meet such a celebrity, boy were we wrong. When we stepped into the room Oliver and Abby scurried to the corner of the room screeching in fear trying to get as far away from the giant red monster as humanly possible. Elmo terrified Abby so deeply that she spent rest of the day looking over her shoulder to make sure Elmo wasn't following behind. I love these shots, the kids huddled in the corner while Elmo looks strangely concerned.

What is it about peanut butter in the middle of the night? When ever I can't sleep I always shuffle into the kitchen, dip a big spoon into my crunchy Adam's Natural peanut butter and eat it very slowly until it hits the right spot (whatever spot that is). I thought I was the only one until tonight I walked into the kitchen and saw my roommate sitting with an exhausted slouch on the kitchen counter with a spoon full of peanut butter in her hand. Not much was said, we just nodded and smiled, this need must run deep in the blood of sleepless girls.

Beginners = Bueno /
If you are craving something extraordinary go see the movie Beginners.
By far one of my favorites of the year.
reasons to go see it:
-you simply like good films
-you enjoy beautiful cinematography paired with an perfectly appropriate soundtrack
-you appreciate good story telling and emotional lyricism
-like dogs, or don't like dogs but would like to one day like dogs
-feel like laughing, but in the deep dark way
Press until broken. /

Mermaids on Parade /
I mentioned before that I went to the Coney Island Mermaid Parade last weekend...
We somehow got sucked into the parade and somehow never got kicked out.
These two ladies below were my favorite, they were so excited to have an excuse to walk around without tops (I made some neon censors for those who need them... too bad everyone at the parade didn't have the same luxury).
Where is Charlie?
This was his highlight I think.
T'was a good day.

Coney Island: Mermaid Parade /
I have been looking forward to today for a long time.
It was the Mermaid Parade, really can you think of anything better?
Here is the crew.
We arrived a little late to Coney Island so all the good spots were taken, I am not going to lie, my heart was breaking to know that all of the action was happening feet from me and I couldn't even see it.
Luckily my impatience and frustration causes me to do ridiculous things to get my way and we decided to join the parade. It was an easy thing to do since we had Charlie with us (thanks Charlie!)
We made it through the entire parade, just as loved as the topless mermaids and men dressed as lobsters.
It really was a dream come true.
PS I will post more photos soon.
The train ride home, happy as a clam.
