Opening Day of the Seasonal Farmer's Market at the Hattie Carthan Community Gardens

Okay. Most of these photos are of the bicycle-powered smoothie blender. This young lady is making me a watermelon-pear-honey-mint smoothie. A bargain, full of Vit. C, for $3.




The altar at the Garden. This is where the majik happens, literally.

The clay and brick bread oven. More magic.

And the long table full of veggies and home preparations. The farmer's market is open every Saturday. It's on Clifton Place at Marcy Ave., right near Lafayette Ave. Easy to get to via the G-Train or the B38.

Lately, of late



Going to the Sugarhill Supper Club for an Obama Fundraiser
Sugarhill has a mirrored stairway going up to the supper club. Not quite Versailles, but a bit like the old Tavern on the Green.


Once inside, it's dinner and a show



A hallway somewhere on the East Side

Late at night the trash cars come through the station

And a mural going up across the street at the Mark Morris Dance Academy

Please forgive the proliferation of subway station shots, but I just had to say that the Bedford-Nostrand G-train station is really a block long. This view looks towards Bedford Ave. from Nostrand Ave.

On my way to the Park Slope Food Coop and this worker from the coop gets out of the subway station and then walks ahead of me with a shopping cart that he had parked at the variety store at the top of the subway stairs on Flatbush Ave. Taking a ride on the subway must knock off a good half hour from your shift, right?

No one riding in the back. A lonely night on the No. 38 Bus, then once off the bus, walking past the laundrymat, the little Christian Center, and the Van Buren Deli on my way home.
