Tomorrow, I think I’m going to swing by the Big Brooklyn Pig Roast and Harvest Hoedown at The Yard in Brooklyn. What to expect if you come along: Sixpoint on draft, a special batch of cinnamon ice cream from Blue Marble, Tom Mylan roasting a whole pig, and dessert from the lovely Cathy Erway — along with music, dancing, and the Gowanus Canal.

This American Life’s follow up to their awesome episode on the housing crisis. I’ve also started listening to NPR’s Planet Money Podcast, which applies the same explanatory power - and Alex Blumberg’s voice - to breaking financial news.
Lykke Li + Bon Iver hang session! The world is so on my side today!

I just bought tickets to see Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo, another dance company I studied in college but haven’t yet had the chance to see live. Founded in 1974, the company performs a full modern and ballet repertoire en travesti. Their faithful renditions of classic works like Swan Lake, Death and Entrances, and Stars and Stripes Forever, are not only skillfully danced but deliver great satire of dance and dance culture. (My personal fav is The Dying Swan. It’s just too good.) Go! I promise, they’ll make you laugh. Read more on the Trocks here.

Now that the HCS office has moved downtown to Cooper Square, I’m loving not being in a work neighborhood for work. It’s fun to wander the East Village during *gasp* daylight hours. Today for lunch, I tried out the recently opened Porchetta on 7th btwn 1st and A. Get the porchetta sandwich with a side of crispy potatoes and a Boylan’s Birch Beer and you’re good to go.

The wonderful Mary sent me these beautiful flowers from Belle Fleur today. Yipee! I love ranuncula and sweet pea.
