I'm totally dating myself here posting these, but I love these photos my dad shot of me and my sister in the 80's. My sister and I had my mom's dresses on that for some reason we ripped open the side of one leg, we must have thought it looked sexy. Very sexy with your grannie panties hanging out, hehe. Full face of make-up, summer tans, frizzy hair and doing the hustle. Yeah! Check out the 45's with Xanadu being in the front, my favorite!

Adopt or Foster Moose!

moose_smiles_bw

I generally like to keep my animal posts on my separate blog tinybeasttown but this is a very special case where there are three lovely dogs who need homes at least foster ones. So today I would like to feature Moose:
Moose is a doll! She loves to play and get belly rubs. Her favorite activities are: couch surfing, butt scratching, making sure you are never alone, and tail wagging. She's a little shy for the first few minutes then she can't wait to go on walk with you and hang out on the sofa and watch little Breaking Bad with you. Almost everything is new to her at 9 years old because her previous owner kept her locked in a basement with barely any food, but still she acts like a pup and loves everyone. Moose needs some serious fattening up which is what her fosters have been trying to do slowly, although she has a great appetite and can eat all day if you give her the opportunity, but we gotta take it slow. This sweet little lady has gotten along with all her foster siblings, including some of the more grumpy ones, so she'd love a roommate especially a real chill one. She's cool with older kids. This gentle pup needs a mellow place to settle down in but really like for someone to play with her, take her on walks, and even the park. Moose has had a really sad and hard life and is ready to start a great one with her new loving family. To foster or adopt please visit Amsterdog.org and fill out an application for "Little Sister"

Maison Premiere and Other Brooklyn Lovelies

Maison Premiere has become my new favorite bar. They have the best oyster happy hour from 4-7pm, $1 oysters from a huge daily selection of east and west coast oysters. Beautiful cocktails prepared by their dapper mixologists. The whole bar feels like you stepped into a 1920's Parisian bar, from the decor to the impeccably dressed staff and beautiful garden. Located on Bedford Ave at Grand St in Williamsburg Brooklyn.

After a dozen oysters and a delicious beverage I rode my bike down to the N7th pier park and watched the sunset.
