Careening between high and low culture.

Navigating a career in the arts. Leafing through cookbooks. Collecting art. Hand writing thank you notes.

Throwing dinner parties. Farming out dessert. Hockey.

My voice.

-I loved Blood, Bones & Butter. Wrote Gabrielle Hamilton a letter and she wrote me back. Six months later, and i'm still pleased. Voracious reader.
-Crimes and Misdemeanors, Manhattan, On The Waterfront, Last Tango in Paris, Apocalypse now, Life is Beautiful, always get teary when the fat kid gives Roy Hobbs his bat in The Natural
-Prime Minister's Questions on C-Span, 30 Rock
-Musical omnivore, with a particular weakness for esoteric 80's tunes. I'll make you a mixtape, you'll dig it.
-Lupa, Perry Street, Buvette, Red Farm, EN, 'ino, Blue Ribbon Sushi, Raoul's, and Torrisi was really goddamned good. I love restaurants and the culture of food. I miss Sifton. If you know who that is, we'll probably hit it off.

Iced coffee. Pinot noir. Books. Time at the beach. Hockey. Heirloom Tomatoes. The New York Times. Architecture. Intellectual Challenge. Rooftops with water towers. And my apartment's pretty cool.

The growing transactional nature of culture

It's suddenly occurring to me i work way too much.

Effort turns me on.

You're lovely and can change my mind.
