I let my membership lapse. I like it for the discounts and free shipping. I renewed, received a new card and number. It was a hassle getting the new # registered to my online account but finally was able to do it. I received a bunch of welcome coupons which will be used today. Books and DVDs seem likely.



Greenmarket still pretty sparse but picked up seafood for linguini.



Positively 7th Street for me today: Luke's lobster , Porchetta, McSorley's and a quick trip to 6th street to Mighty Quinn's.



Prices are from another era.



American Hustle looks up my alley. Getting it made my $5 off coupon viable. That was after 40% off as a member.



The Wolf of Wall Street,bought the book and the DVD.



Porchetta makes a small but very tasty sandwich.

Trip to Smorgasburg with a side trip to the Brooklyn Brewery. Lunch washed down with brews.

$6 gets you superior Italian Pulled Pork: Porchetta. Includes some crackling.

Real good mini-cheescakes : BiteMeCheesecakes. Their LIMONCELLO MERINGUE is fabulous.

Still one of the best sandwiches ever made : Bocata.

Brooklyn Brewery tasting room has five brews for $20.

Crazy four-eyed Dumbo Street Art in Williamsburg.

Lots of publicity for this book. Release is May 1. Will pick it up soon thereafter. The New Yorker excerpt of the day of JFK's assassination was riveting.
