Yesterday was quite the adventure...
We started the day off right with a delightful brunch at Tom's. Lisa was up visiting Brooklyn for the first time and after a night of drinking wine - pancakes, waffles, sausage, and coffee were greatly needed.
Mike and I then ventured to the indoor farmers market in Park Slope. GO!!!! Every Sunday from 11am to 5pm (I think) this indoor market has live music, artisenal food, clothing, jewelry, and other fun sites. We purchased a variety of cheese (young gouda, gouda with thistle netty, pecorino toscano, and manchego), some olives and pickled tomatos from Doc Pickles (YUM!!!), Motley Cru wine from BOE, and a few sweet potatoes. We even had a cup of soul warming tomato soup!
Seriously, go if you can.
Then we decided a cold day was deserving of a brisk walk over the Brooklyn Bridge. Once we got into Manhattan we found a cigar bar and settled up to the leather bar with an "Astor" torpedo. I think I finally have figured out the basic art of cigar smoking: don't inhale!
The evening was rounded out with a little Iron Chef America Super Chef Battle. Thank you, WPIX 11!
Ciao!
