Met up with old friends at the Harvard Club (not my choice - a friend was a member). Stuffy, lots of portraits of dead white dudes. They made the most whack mint julep (mint and creme de menthe) - had to insist on one made with bourbon, mint, and sugar. Food was meh. But good catching up with peeps.
We took a Zipcar (a Prius!) to Williamsburg on Sunday for some tasty pizza. Probably wouldn't go back, but it was a decent meal. Their gin basil smash drink was awful though - tasted like apple juice from start to finish, hardly a hint of gin.
Kitty and I rode into Manhattan and had brunch at Prune. The eggs Benedict was perfect and the cream of wheat with buttermilk ice cream was nice and sweet. I really liked the bloody Mary (got the one with lemon vodka and pickled radish). I guess it was worth the wait!
Kitty got us nice seats through a friend who directs SummerStage. The event tonight was Met Opera Recital.
Had a tasty bacon-wrapped hot dog topped with mango guacamole at a picnic in Prospect Park yesterday.
Wook scored me a nice 24" Dell monitor off of Craigslist, so I finally get some more LCD real estate. Will productivity increase? Hope so!
Btw, the new monitor is much, much brighter.
One of the best movies I've seen in a while. Action-packed from start to finish, in a lean and smart way. Check it out!
