I was on my own this Saturday and the weather was beautiful, so I decided to head to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. I've been to the New York Botanic Garden, but have heard how beautiful BBG and knew this may be one of the last really gorgeous days before it got chilly and fallish. I hate being cold.
It was an easy train ride and a short walk to BBG. I just wandered around with my camera, people watching and taking pictures. It's nice to go exploring solo sometimes.
P.S. Tom made the Yankees lose.

What Brings You Here
It's funny - the main search terms that bring people to my little photoblog are "pissing", "arepas" and "Hog's Head". I think that's funny and random anyway...
Search terms I would prefer - "awesome Chrysler Building shot" or "I want to buy photographs of New York City reflected in things", but I'm a shameless self-promoter that way.

Saturday
My friend Stephanie yelled at me for not posting pictures last week. It turns out that she checks-in to see what I did over the weekend and make sure I'm still alive. haha
So I've posted my Saturday in excruciating detail for her enjoyment....
I woke up around 9:00 a.m., sliced up some strawberries for breakfast. They were delicious with a nice cup of coffee and a piece of chocolate from Kee's. I did the usual morning stuff and then Tom and I had some errands to run and so we decided to use them as an excuse to try Rickshaw Dumpling Bar, which has been on our "To Try" List for lunch.
We started out intending to walk to Rickshaw, which is located at 23rd and Sixth, but after walking about ten blocks in the oppressive humidty we jumped on the subway instead. It was a good thing we did because we got to Rickshaw right as we were getting really hungry and thirsty.
I ordered the chicken and lemongrass dumplings, steamed. Tom got the classic dumplings, fried. He was so excited to watch the cooks make our food and had no interest in sitting down until the food was in his hands. Lunch was awesome and reasonably priced. I highly recommend Rickshaw.
We crossed the street to pick up some screws at Home Depot. I happen to love hardware stores and Tom had to drag me out after I had taken a bunch of pictures and tried out the doorknob displays. No, I'm not kidding.
We walked home, working our way through Union Square, Washington Square Park, and NYU.
Enjoy, Stephanie!
