Oh yeah… I went and had some MORE cupcakes from Butter Lane… I know.. I know… It’s an addition.

I’m still obsessed with the music on their website.

My NYC summer is almost over..wait what?

Where did the summer go?

Twin & Mom are in town, so I apologize for being behind on posts. More to come!

A good friend of Louis’s and now mine, Julien, is now a part of Juris- the group collaboration between him and Marcus Johnson, the ever-so-talented jazz pianist from DC. I had seen him a few times live in Paris, but now that they’ve kicked off Juris – Julien and Marcus are creating a whole new genre of music and spreading it across DC & ses environs at the moment.

Louis and I went down to DC last weekend, and came to find that it is quite precious! (I had been in 5th grade, but that doesn’t even count as a trip as I hadn’t really completely developed my consciousness and hardly remember the main things I did or saw). We went to the Marcus Johnson show at the famous Blues Alley hidden in the quiet streets of Georgetown. Sunny by day with quaint shoppers, but by night the alley cats came out and lined up to see Marcus Johnson rock out on his piano (in addition to the musical stylings of Juris and Alyson Williams).

Here are a few photos to document the weekend getaway:

‘Twas the perfect weekend getaway out of the Big Apple.

For more Anna Sui make-up, you can check out their store at 113 Greene Street in SoHo. I highly suggest the lipstick….. Just sayin’! They also sell some Anna Sui make-up at Urban Outfitters, and the new fall ’11 line at Anthropologie.

In most of my other posts, I’m wearing this red lipstick (above).

If you scroll down more you’ll see that we found a Photobooth at Union Pool. Now we need to make it over to Enid’s.

This weekend I’ll have a visitor.

I love my new make-up…what is your favorite new thing this week?

Today was filled with gloom and rain… ENFIN. It cooled off the city a little bit. Along with our wandering [and eating] through Bedford & Billyburg we stumbled upon Union Ave….. aka… near Union Pool where there is a Photobooth. Liz and I popped in to enjoy a Red Wine Spritzer, which reminded me of Vienna, and to let the rain pass before heading westward to the West Village. La vie est belle.

For a Monday, today was stuffed. And I am definitely enjoying this cooler weather. Tomorrow I’m sure it’ll spike again.

Enjoyed a delicious linner & milkshake at Jimmy’s Diner (I suggest the Buffalo Chicken burger!).

Sipped an espresso at Ella’s on Bedford.

And off it ’twas to Manhattan for a cheese-filled evening with my favorite Texan.

Also, did you see the Photoautomat Daily today?

Woo!

The perfect Monday…. with a milkshake and a photobooth with a lovely gal.
