With a mixed tape itinerary…

In a Little Miss Sunshine VW…

Across the countryside of South America…

2. .WEARING HEARTS ON SLEEVES.

3. .INDIE BACKSEATS.

Which pretty much describes my old obsession: the Black Cab Sessions.

4. .PICNICS.

Had the first (of many) picnics on the prettiest Saturday in Boston in a while this past weekend.

10 Things I Love Tuesday: St. Patrick’s Day Style

1. .RANDOM POPS OF GREEN.

2. .GIFT OF GAB.

Nothing like a good long-winded Irish conversation.

3. .RED HAIR.

Such as this gorgeous undone braid and the lovely Jane Asher with Pattie Boyd.

4. .IRISH COFFEE.

5. .SOAKING UP THE IRISH COFFEE.


[source]

6. .IRISH ROMANCE MOVIES NOT INCLUDING HILARY SWANK.

Granted, I did find this movie (Once) to be a bit boring. However, the amazingness that is Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova’s harmony in “Falling Slowly” makes it all worth the while.

7. .FORTY SHADES OF GREEN.


[source]

8. .FASHIONABLE EMERALD.


9. .PUB-CRAWLING.

Or staying in with Irish car bombs and green beer, whichever.

10. .IRELAND.

I’ve been there thrice, would kill for a brogue of my own, and will never cease to be amazed by how much beauty this little island country has.

Have a happy, safe, and green St. Patrick’s Day!

Peace,

On The Corner Of Bleecker And Nowhere

[photographer two]

As promised, here are some photos from a recent New York/New Jersey trip. My friends have some damn good cameras that framed the beautiful weather perfectly.It was so lovely, in fact, that my trench coat was able to be sported for the first time. Greenwich Village, Soho, Washington Square Park are all such magical places. I live and love Boston, but New York City has a pace and a lifestyle all its own. Maybe one day I’ll brave it!

Peace,
