Getting home

Ernie will no doubt post about the house concert we went to. I enjoyed it highly.

Afterwards we went to Mexicana Mama, a great restaurant in the Village. It's tiny:

Mexicana Mama

I posted a picture last night, here are two more. Growing up in So Cal where everything is all neat and clean, I love funky NYC restaurants. Besides being tiny, MM's bathroom is in the back of the space which requires you to walk through the narrow, busy kitchen. Here's the view the confronts you when you come out, the gauntlet through which you must pass:





And what would a mexican restaurant be without large clusters of resin grapes?





The food is wonderful as well. I had huitlacoche quesadillas and chiles rellenos - the chiles are simple but perfect, roasted poblano peppers stuffed with corn, tomatoes, and cheese and baked (not breaded or fried.) Served over rice that's cooked with cilantro. So fabulous that you forget you're not eating meat (which is on the menu, of course.)

Highly recommended.

Something I found on eBay

I'm in one of those moods where I'm cleaning out stuff that seemed important enough to buy but has sat in drawers for years.

This one I think I'll frame. I don't know where it's from (it looks like it was torn out of a book) but I think it's way hot.

Early 90's

My lover died, I got connected to the Internet, I found out about soc.motss, I was on the bears list, and everything changed.

This is one of my favorite pics from that time:





Jeff Dauber. I was so naive back then.
