oh, crab!

A sunny Saturday, lots of beer, mallets and Maryland blue crabs... All the ingredients for a chill afternoon with friends who came together to celebrate Jeremy's 30th at the Hudson Beach Cafe inside Riverside Park... Photos from yesterday's outing...

que sabrosa!

Here are some pics from my Deepher sister Arlene's bridal shower/ bachelorette outing this weekend... Starting off at Havana Central near Columbia and ended up dancing over at Latin Quarter in midtown... It was fun hanging out with the lady's saucy crew -- makes for a lively evening and an interesting preview of the wedding which is slated for October in downtown Orlando!

City transit to commuters: Stay home!

It's never a dull day here in the City, is it now???

I woke up this morning, took a shower, made some coffee and turned on the telly to NY1 News -- per the usual drill. It was surprising to hear that all the trains were either suspended or severely delayed and even more surprising that it's because of morning rainstorm and tornadoes (what the fondue???!!!). Bay Ridge, Brooklyn got hit pretty badly. Living uptown in Harlem wasn't any easier. It seems like most folks in the office got in relatively around the same time between 10-11 a.m.
