let’s hang out!
May 2nd, 2013
I’ve got an invitation that you simply can’t refuse. The Brooklyn Flea. A fabulous cause. These cookies. And me! Yes, I will be “working” at the Flea this Saturday, doing a shift at the NYC Bake Sale, to benefit No Kid Hungry. This is a remarkable organization, which I wrote about last year when I [...]
a few “flea finds”
July 11th, 2012
I’ve been to the Brooklyn Flea a few times already this summer, which makes me very happy! I’m so excited to share my latest finds; you know I’m always “on the hunt” for the handmade, well-designed and unusual. First up? This great tote from Flux Productions: I’ve been a fan since my very first Flea [...]

While these are five most excellent ingredients all on their own, they also happen to come together in the amazing kitchen of Liddabit Sweets (in – what else? – their Bourbon-Coffee-Bacon Caramel Corn, of course). My sweet tooth has been well-documented on this blog, and Liddabit Sweets is [...]
brooklyn bound: smorgasburg
August 10th, 2011
This is one of those times where I wish I could just transport you all to this place, rather than attempt to describe it in words: ……I mean, seriously??? I mentioned Smorgasburg (the name is a mash-up of “smorgasbord” and “Williamsburg”) in a recent post about Brooklyn Flea. Seems that one of the more unexpected (and [...]
brooklyn bound: brooklyn flea
July 6th, 2011
Where do I begin to describe one of my favorite shopping/eating/people watching destinations?? I suppose from the beginning…… In 2008 I read about a new flea market that was slated to open in Fort Greene, Brooklyn.
