“In der Stadt” (In the city)
On a street in Brooklyn, NY. In a big city you have to coexist side by side with others who may be very different from you.

“Aufkleber” (Sticker)
Stickers on a pay phone in Brooklyn. For my younger readers: a “pay phone” was a machine bolted to a wall or sidewalk where you inserted “coins” (small metal discs before credit or Apple Pay) in order to make a “call” (like texting, but audio). This was before pocket phones and we could wander the city without being immediately trackable or reachable. We were free.😉

My favorite Brooklyn food spot on this trip has been Leland in Prospect Heights
For dinner, they very randomly have very good jook (congee) and eggplant fries. Everything has been good actually
And for brunch they’ve got an interesting menu as well
It’s the kind of place I like: culturally confusing but everything is good. A bit like the food I cook for myself but better executed.
It’s also been super convenient to meet friends who live in the area

“Nebel, Dunst” / Fog, haze
One of my favorite fog photos. I’m very fond of these shipping cranes on the Brooklyn waterfront — they feel like giant neighborhood guardians to me.

A bodega cat surveying their domain. I know pumpkins can be considered both fruits and vegetables, so I’ll say they’re veggies in this case!

Another pleasant discovery in my neighborhood yesterday. Defonte’s has been an institution in Red Hook for over a hundred years, family-run since 1922, and served me one of the best Italian sandwiches I’ve ever had. I’m kicking myself for not knowing about it earlier. We yearn for travel adventures, but sometimes serendipity strikes at home when you just leave your routine paths and turn left instead of right.

Three friends an I are going to see Chappel Roan later this week in Queens. I like her pink pony club, and have been making a variety of pink ponies lately.
I decided to make some tiny pink "pony"s that the four of us could wear as necklaces to the concert. They also could be clipped onto hats. I got the tiniest 6mm blue phosphor glass I could get my hands on and filled them to just 8 torr neon (normally 18torr at this size) so they are nice an conductive an the battery lasts longer. Pure neon fill- so I can fix em if they break.
I do have to double check the rules of forest hills. I guess I could lie an say they are LEDs 😀. One of my friends requested a heart tiara (I think the tour has hearts in its theme) so I made two lil ones filled for battery life 😀.
I sure hope we can dance with the neon as a pink pony club 😀
