ODE TO THE G TRAIN
Your metal doors do not like diamonds glow,
And few admire your bright green neon face
You travel not where I most yearn to go,
And at a slow and steady snail-like pace.
Our schedules seem forever out of sync,
When I arrive of course you will have gone,
I patiently await you on the brink,

Recipe: Gorgonzola Walnut Crostini with Pear Salad →
Verdict: tasty. Don’t be disappointed if your Gorgonzola won’t melt. Serve with soup! Preferably butternut squash soup. Add some baby spinach, crushed red pepper, some of the excess caramelized onions, and a dollop of Greek yogurt (or creme fraiche if you’re fancy).
Warning! The crostini gets REALLY crunchy depending on what kind of bread you use (I used ww sourdough).

Lost Weekend NYC →
Bro friends, might I recommend Lost Weekend NYC? Blue Bottle coffee, men’s clothing, Malin + Goetz products. On the LES (and tumblr). The current Patrick McMullan photography exhbit of SoHo in the 80s will probably appeal to everyone.
