January 19, 2015



MLK day, Alternate Side Parking suspended but you must feed the meter. Learned that one several years ago. My new place makes me park at meters, working out so far because I arrive home when they are near expiration and I leave for work before they start. A day like today, you have to look for a good spot.



Raffetto's was closed today so I went to Fairway for some Red-Pepper,Mozzarella & Basil Ravioli.



18 seconds, a new record.

Beautiful day on Saturday. Went wandering around.



Had to go to a Lunch in the Village, passed by this statue of Garibaldi in Washington Square Park.



Villa Mosconi on Macdougal Street was the destination. Old School Italian place, food was very good. Macdougal Street is so different, but the "Cafe Wha?" is still there. Wiki tells me the street was named after Alexander McDougall. The difference in spelling is attributed to Scottish variances and the fact his father went by Macdougal.



Since Raffetto's was nearby, had to pick up some fresh ravioli.



Next was the High Line. Lots of places to eat and drink including Delaney BBQ. The street performers were different, a little artsy.



Place was packed. Still, some nice things to see.



Unusual sculpture.



Road to nowhere.

Trip to the new Fairway in Douglaston. It is a Country Store, Whole Foods and Balducci's all in one.



Picked up some Raffetto's Red-Pepper,Mozzarella & Basil Ravioli. I used to go to the store ,144 W Houston St. between Sullivan St. & MacDougal St. It is still there and has a Facebook page.



Concert tonight at Queens Theatre in the Park: Melissa Manchester.



If you want me, you can have me. And, if you need me, I'll be there.
