Hello everyone!
My first post on Posterous in ages and actually, you'll see I've taken my other posts down. So in some ways this is my first Posterous post...
A busy week. I'll attempt to tell it in pictures.
There was an iittala sample sale earlier this week at their showroom on Madison Ave. I snapped up several items, one being this beautiful plate. These plates, btw, aren't just decorative. They are freezer-, microwave-, oven- and dishwasher-safe. They are meant to be used and enjoyed!
I found myself invited the next day to an incredible lunch prepared by a chef from Helsinki. We *could* have been dining on iitala plates there too, who knows. The full details will be seen in the December issue of the Finnish-American Reporter. In the meantime, if you'd like the answer to the question: Did you have reindeer? It is: Yes!
Next up: The wonderful Brooklyn museum was having a members' preview and reception for their latest exhibit Who Shot Rock n Roll? This exhibit runs until January 31st. Excellent. One of the highlights of the evening was a performance in the museum by Blondie. Here's Debbie Harry wearing a black wig:
Actually, I know you want to see the video of her performance of Rapture. Here it is:
But wait! This week was also Halloween. You know I was out with my camera, snapping pix of this, the most spookiest time of the year.
Skulls and even skeletons!
I enjoyed the steel drum band a lot...
A wonderful weekend. And to all, a Good Night!
