this is what i do in brooklyn.
i say hello to this little block every morning.
i drink australian-style flat whites @ milk bar while mocking australian-style babyccinos.
sometimes i do cultural things like go to the opera @ BAM.
most times i eat my weight in brunch foods (preferably @ dean street).
i remark on the 'brooklyn-ness' of things like bird-houses made from organic grass-fed milk cartons.
i play bocce ball @ union hall.
and i instagram photos of semi-meaningful statements on saturday morning strolls.
this is what i do in brooklyn.

design inspiration
we just got word that we can stay in our current apartment, so that means i finally get to start redecorating plans! i need all the small space inspiration i can get for this teensy tiny 'winged 1 bedroom'.
apartment therapy has a great 'small cool spaces' series, like this williamsburg apartment.

home sweet homes #1-3
we've been moving around quite a bit lately. all the long-term leases we've seen seem too small, too old, or too far. but in the meantime we've had some amazing temporary homes that we've been sad to leave every time!
#1: we started out in adorable brooklyn heights with this view:
#2: then we had a brief stint on the UWS with this lovely puppy:
#3: now we've moved to this beautiful upper east side apartment where we're hoping we can stay for awhile!

sketchy miami
daniel and i spent a lot of time in wynwood this weekend: at panther coffee, the wynwood art walk and food truck rally, and my personal favorite - sketchy party #2.
sketchy miami is the brainchild of the beached miami blog, and has only one goal: to create a sketch of every person in miami. get it? sketches? sketchy? yeah. as part of this effort they have hosted two fantastic sketchy parties, where people from across miami can come to eat, drink, and be sketchy.
sketchy party #2 took place this past friday at the bakehouse art complex, which is amazing on its own. there were nearly a thousand people and what seemed like hundreds of artists there of all ages and backgrounds to sketch the people of miami. one woman even stitched her sketches into fabric with a sewing machine that she casually had on-hand.
we followed up the sketchy party with a midnight showing of 'troll hunters' at the nearby o-cinema. troll hunters is amazing and exactly what it sounds like - a film about norwegians that hunt trolls. epic.
