It’s great when friends from Singapore visit. Alv, Aud, Feli, Ang all brought a piece of home to NY. We squeezed yummy brunch, bargain shopping, hilarious moments in VS changing room, rain clouds in SOHO, cloudless day on brooklyn bridge, backyard dining, encounters with old and new friends in one weekend and it feels pretty [...]

Being in New York has brought us many steps closer to one of our favourite singers, Suzanne Vega. So of course we thought it nothing to have to drive 2 hours to the pretty little town with the pretty little name of Poughkeepsie to hear her sing (for free!) at the Hudson River Arts Festival. [...]

To take advantage of the beautiful weather we are having, we went down to Fort Greene to catch some music, food and beautiful people. See the Fort Greene Fest through Ken’s eyes.

An impromptu party, a raincoat patchwork tent, an inappropriate goodbye speech, a mother’s irreverent words of advice and a kiss that tells us everything will be ok. Bye bye Gilmore Girls and thank you for the reruns.

To continue our weekend of no labour, we slept in again. But the day was too lovely to stay indoor so we walked out into the breezy sunlight for a cup of Joe’s coffee, supposedly the best coffee in New York. I am no coffee person but I could see myself returning for its carrot [...]
A Weekend of No Labour

After the yesterday’s highs of finally getting Shakespeare in the Park tickets and watching Midsummer’s Night in Central Park (no better way to watch it), today seemed like a great day to take it easy. We woke up late, called in Chinese, watched TV, slept some more and watched even more TV.
