Tuesday August 9: the lobster night of all lobster nights

I was in Montauk earlier this week for an abbreviated beach trip which coincided with my future father-in-law's birthday... could there possibly be a better way to say happy birthday?

J'aime mes amis

I needed to find some French images for a work project and while doing so I took a quick sentimental time-out to remember my reunion in Paris with my dear friends Jenny and Tom for our 52nd Tuesday shot in 2009. I can't wait for our next reunion come September 24 when Jenny will be photographing my wedding!

Now onto finding a location in Raleigh so that Jenny can recreate this shot for me. Any thoughts?

Celebrating my 155th Tuesday since moving from NYC

One of my most favorite personal projects is a photo blog that my long-distance friend Jenny and I have been working on for the past three years (which started my last Tuesday living in the West Village). And in honor of our 52nd Tuesday of this year, I hoofed it to the Asian market at rush hour, bought the best looking 2 lb lobsters for Mike and I to enjoy, and even got up the courage to put those suckers in the water myself. Jenny + Tom, I love and miss you, and most of all am thinking of you tonight.

PS. And as a great rule of 'friends don't let friends boil lobsters in pots that are too small' I owe a huge thank you to my dear friend Paola, who has probably seen me the most in these last 155 weeks.With and without lobster.

Merry Christmas to moi!

I love supporting my local vendors

Especially ones who share my taste in seafood.

Unlike Bright Eyes, I will never have any Land Locked Blues

Water or no water nearby, I can now get my fix whenever I need it...

Mickey Mouse SO lost out in terms of Florida's entertainment options

Montauk love, part 2

Lobster girl lives on.

My heart (and my lobster) was left in Paris

So, I'm $75 richer (and per my parents, smarter) for having left Lobster Girl for someone else at the Paris Flea Market, but even now–4 months later–I still get a little sad about not having bought her.

My friend Jenny would have approved of the purchase.
