GREEN THUMB

This last week we planted out garden. Call us geeky, but we love it. I honestly look forward to spring to be able to plant. It makes me feel more at home to have a little piece of soil to grow something. It's nothing like an apple/cherry orchard, but it pretty good for nyc. We planted scallions, roma tomatoes, zuchinni, jalapenos, green peppers, basil, cilantro, rosemary and lavendar. We didn't have too much luck with the zuchinni last year so cross your fingers so we can be makin some good zuchinni bread this summer.

Check out the goods...

Cardon tilling the soil. Gettin her ready.

Cardon's got mad skills.

We planted most of the herbs and a few peppers/ jalapenos in pots.

HARLEM, FRIENDS, MODELING, DINNER AND A CRITIQUE

Kelly looking a touch nervous... I love it.
K.P. looking a lot more comfortable into the third session of 20 minutes (five minute breaks) at this time I was cooking up some delish chicken burgers and tofu dogs.
This is Greg a lost and found friend studying here in New York, I havent seen him in like a year and since our reuniting I have seen him already 4 times this week this might have to due with us becoming tennis partners. Side note he showed me the most beautiful courts free and clean in deep Harlem around 151 st.
Crit time around 11:00 pm
Everyones pieces look great and Greg gave Kelly his to say thanks. (stoked, small fist pump)

We caught a late bus out of Harlem only after and old black lady yelled at Kelly for five minute about how white girls got booty too! It was soo funny, with a dash of weird.

SECOND BEST

Just a few gems at Queens best thrift store, Second Best.

Cardon was diggin this jacket. Can you blame him.

We found some great old books.

It has been so nice having Cardon out of school. We have had so much the past few days. Eating yummy meals with the Doxey's outside in the yard, watching movies, going on scooter rides, thrifting and playing some ridiculous games of scattergories. Now if I could only get out of going to work...

REVLON 5K


Last Saturday was the Revlon 5K. It was so much fun to have such a great team of people to run with. I have never ran a race with so many people, i am talking bodies touching like a crowded subway car at the beginning. It started at Times Square running up through Central Park and ending at 105th Street. Thank you to everyone who made donations to support cancer research for women. Our team was able to raise over $8,000! I am hoping to keep running races through the summer and work my way up to a half marathon and hopefully someday a marathon. I am running another 5K next week. Thank you again everyone for your support.
