8.1. the red tailed hawk of east williamsburg/bushwick...he makes my days more mystical when he comes into view..really a beautiful sight in the doldrums of this long bitter cold winter...i have yet to name him-any+all suggestions welcome.
2. my newly acquired 3D galloping horse picture, of which i am terribly fond...accented by the prism effects of a new favorite feng shui addition to our window. (i got this awesome gadget from my sister+her hubby for christmas-so rad!)

7.cedez got scolded for this frozen weiner by a waitress at hotel delmano..she thought it was absurdly rude while we found it utterly hilarious! (not sure we'll ever outgrow this juvenile winter tradition)
8.galpals at claire's birthday party+a touch of rodarte for targay.

our pockets were full of champagne+our lungs with laughter.

we had such a f-ing blast at my brother+sister-in-law's 5th annual global warming party....so much so that we almost had a forced park slope slumber party...but after a group hike in our party clothes, we managed to pay an off duty taxi a pretty penny to bring us home.
thanks to my dears for making saturday an adventure never to be forgotten.
blizzard'09, you got nothin on any of us...party shoes be damned. (okay-i did trade out my comey leopard pony hair pumps for borrowed boots but cedez+claire hoofed it in their pretty lady shoes-radical chicas indeed.)
