I got this luscious ruby red grapefruit from Wholefoods. They had samples to taste and I knew just by looking at them that they would be AWESOME! They have a natural sweetness to them so each spoon full of pulp is like swallowing Gummi Bear elixir. I only got two though because at $1.99 a pound the five dollars I spent on them could’ve been used on twice the number of grapefruit from the Chinatown fruit stands which are just as fresh and good but not organic and don’t have an electric color.

This year I got sports socks to use as stockings so that we can give each other more random stuff and junk food that we probably don’t need in the apartment. Pill’s is on the left which he decorated with old boxer shorts, mine is second from the left and the cat and dog’s are on the right. Mia has one stuffed eyeball glued onto her stocking because that’s the eyeball that she ripped off Lulu’s shrimp toy, that craazy dog!

Saw this discarded postcard on the sidewalk when walking down the Bowery today. The postcard was actually on the ground and I picked it up because I wanted to see if anyone had written anything on the back of it. Unfortunately it was blank so instead I stuck the postcard on the emergency box on the street corner.

This snowglobe sat atop a wooden mixer at an Audrey Chen performance, who is a cousin of my friend. She’s classically trained in opera and cello but the music she performs now is… experimental to say the least.

If anyone was following this blog, they will undoubtedly remember that on December 6th, I posted a picture of my newly sprouted basil plant. In an effort to maintain it’s life I put a little glass wine globe over it to keep the moisture in and some of the cold air out. Today when checking on the plant’s status I noticed these other little dudes/dudettes/tranny dudes/tranny dudettes/boi dudes/gay dudes whatever, growing on a dead leaf. eek! Now I have to fight these spores that have infiltrated the safety zone. Any ideas on what to do? I guess it’s interesting to see this little microcosm growing on my window sill, it’s like a 3rd grade science project without the threat of failing. Maybe I’ll move the spore colony to another section of the pot… but based on experience of leaving month old food in the refrigerator my sense is that I will probably regret this little side show side project. They look cute and smurfy now but after a few weeks, yuck?
