Dossier Store


This past weekend, Dossier Journal opened up a store in Ft. Greene Brooklyn (244 Dekalb Avenue between Clermont and Vanderbilt Avenue.) Check it out. And buy my vintage designer duds. Or come upstairs and say Hi, because I live here too.

Redhook

Every week I make a trip to my favorite grocery store, Fairway 
in Redhook, one of my favorite destination neighborhoods in Brooklyn.
Fairway is mecca holy land for people who like to cook with fresh ingredients, or
for those who love to stock up on a week's worth of breakfast, lunch and dinner without
breaking the bank. The selection of organic and farm raised poultry is impressive.
And instead of making trips to a local cheese shop or butcher, Fairway houses a knowledgeable helpful staff making your trip a one stop shop.

My favorite items to get are: 
1. cheese- because a woman isn't really a woman if she doesn't eat cheese.

2. olives - i heard that Mariah Carey got skinny on a diet of olives and champagne 

3. truffle oil - drizzle this and honey on a round of brie, then bake in the oven. A spiritual experience.

4. coconut water - historically used as intravenous fluid, which has saved lives among wounded soldiers, perfect for this accident prone walking disaster freak on two legs.

5. dark 85% chocolate - unlike any medication or glass of wine, chocolate has the power to lift me out of a K-hole.  Cocoa improves cardiac health, reduces risk of cancer, lung disease and diabetes. Way!

Bill Cunningham


I particularly love this illustration of New York Times's style 
photographer, Bill Cunningham, who I wish was my grandfather
well, because he reminds me of my grandfather! I have a deep 
appreciation of what this man does every week, every season.
