This President's Day weekend, I:

*Saw Jesse read from a wonderful story at an old can factory, as evidenced by this photo. Afterward, we took a windy walk from Gowanus to Park Slope to get some pizza.

*Finally went to the abstract expressionists exhibition in the MoMA, which had a bonus room of pop art. (Did I ever tell you that the big sandwichRead more... )

I hadn't seen it since I was a kid and I was actually a little bummed to realize that it doesn't go out of its way to include all of the different supporting characters from the show. No Gyro Gearloose! No Beagle Boys!

Also, a sign of the pre-Aladdin voiceover times: the genie is voiced by Rip Taylor.

Buttermilk Channel AND Baked? So awesome. I went to Buttermilk Channel last year for dinner on my birthday, it was fantastic. I've heard their brunch is amazing but tough to get into.

I have the (first) Baked cookbook, but I've never made anything from it. Is it as delicious as it seems?

I've only been to Buttermilk Channel for brunch, and it's really, really good. We had to wait a half an hour, but that's not really a big deal for good brunch.

I had a "monster" cookie at Baked, and it was delicious, but it might have been better if I wasn't full from brunch. (Or I might've tried more/different things.)

I was fantasizing about that cookie today, because it was delicious, but obviously I'd appreciate it more now, not having just eaten pancakes and biscuits.
