This time last week in Nebraska, I had the joy of morning walks to a lake. Surprised to be greeted by a young deer one morning. Take me back....

Ode to vacation coffee~ Will savor the last drops of vacation time today, like the last drops of these cups. #Coffeesky The Mill and Crescent Moon coffee in Lincoln, Nebraska (Haymarket area).

Friday Coffee Cheers~ The start of my vacation is tantalizing close, beginning when work ends at 6:00pm. My June Joy is traveling to visit loved ones "back home" : )

An exhilarating Twin Tribes show last night at Webster Hall in NYC. Luis & Joel are just the coolest musicians who are also down to earth. Great energy at this show~

Strolling in perfect weather to the Brooklyn Museum on Sunday. Ahhhh.

I will take a 10 ounce human heart and a 3 pound human brain over a 100,000 square foot data center any day of the week.

Exciting motherload of new coffee beans to try. My loved ones got me a great gift card from @queenbeancoffee.bsky.social : )

Flashing back 2 weeks ago to a delightful (and purposeful) pit stop at Traveler Food & Books in CT on the way to Boston. Three free used books with every meal-so much fun!

My goal for the Holiday weekend was to try one new coffee place each day. Goal achieved; let's just say they all aren't going to knock it out of the flavor or vibe park. Oy.

Heavy rains changed plans a wee bit, but I found I could enjoy my coffee outside under the delightfully decorated overhang at IX. It actually turned out to be very pleasant. #coffeesky #glimmers

#Coffeesky Tried the cutest, most hallway like, coffee shop today: Loud Baby. Great cold brew & vibes after a big walk in Brooklyn. Friendly barista for bonus points. : )

Just me enhancing an NYC subway commute with @elimccann.bsky.social cosmically delightful "We're Thankful for the Moisture". These tales brought me outloud laughs and teary eyes in equal measure. Thanks Eli!

Monday morning was coffee on a log in Massachusetts...today, back to work. #Coffeesky

Hi from Brooklyn, NY @garethlpowell.bsky.social just finished "Ragged Alice." Ordered from my local Indie Bookstore, of course. It conjured vivid images : )

Reading on the roof before the rain comes. : ) I love the cover art on "Head Cleaner" a novel by David James Keaton.

Morning trek to a waterfall in Prospect Park & trying a new coffee place in Brooklyn. #coffeesky #glimmers Happy Saturday~

Nostalgic for last Saturday's walk in an unexpected torrential downpour. I found a dry overhang at the boathouse where they kindly had coffee. It turned out to be very peaceful and zen, never mind the deluge : )

Bluesky serving up delights! That middle cheerleader seems so familiar...can't quite put my finger on it. ; ) Go Tecumseh Indians!

The weekend thus far is shaping up to have a Strong Yellow theme. Art from the Sakura exhibit at the Romanian Cultural Institute, yellow Magnolia blooms and Grand Central lighting that always captures my fancy. Happy Saturday~

Release the Epstein Files

Saturday sushi lunch date with "King Sorrow" by Joe Hill. I made the bold choice to try an Umami Martini. Oh my goodness, it was one of the best cocktails I've had in awhile! Who knew I enjoyed mushroom Liqueur?

Farmer's Market score today, Knish with sweet potato & corn and Blueberry cheese Danish. Having half of each today and saving half for tomorrow (which is most likely a lie I am telling myself) ; )

Random round up of recent happy things. #Glimmers Delightful friends & loved ones, vivid sunset, spitting celestial fountain spied through a fence and tartufo for two. : )

Saturday morning off to a great start: Library reserve pick up of "King Sorrow" by Joe Hill, Farmer's market tart and a spring time treat of Turkey Eggs. On to the next-

Off to head out for some adventures, including the library and a bookstore ; ) Happy Saturday my Bluesky friends~ www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnZQ...

Coffee cheers on (Good) Friday Blue Sky. I'm the geek who is always excited to flip the calendar to the new art. : ) April has a messsage. : )

Time for another round up of recent reads. Spider Robinson (2) , Mariana Enriquez and Kate Winkler Dawson. With pairings of chai, cider, sapporo and sunshine as the good lawd intended. ; )

Sometimes theatre is meant to unsettle you and make you uncomfortable-"Giant" with John Lithgow achieved that this weekend.

Caught the Wed. matinee of "Every Brilliant Thing" with Daniel Radcliffe and it really is Brilliant! SO much to love about this production (I don't want to ruin any surprises). Go see it if you can. Also, pistachio martinis seem to be a new trend and I'm not mad about it. (#9,871, lol)

This is who runs this account.

We picked Scottadito last night in Park Slope as a new place to try. Surprised by the fireplace upon entering-so lovely! I could sit by the hearth with good company all night, if they'd let me. #Glimmers

“I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues.” ― Dr. Seuss, The Lorax Imagine my delight stumbling upon The Lorax at the pub...in March ...and getting to toast with him. Speaking for the trees is thirsty business ; ) I love you New York, never change.

Good morning Bluesky. Coffee and mint tea on the agenda. My calendar sentiment of "I make my own Luck" is true. Or maybe it's just a matter of always thinking to myself "I'm a lucky girl" in gratitude. Start of a 4 day weekend for me so I'm extra peppy. : )

Generative AI is where creativity goes to die

Every March 4th, Kaiser Cartel are in my thoughts. Hope your Wednesday is "Okay" as found on the their March Forth Album. Lucky to have been to a few of their live shows many moons ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc2O...

Just because I thought it was pretty, with hints of Spring around the corner. Last weekend, tropical cocktail (Amy Island) and lychee martini. So lucky to have a fantastic Thai place nearby.

Each apartment dweller only knows their chosen hue. But I get to delight in the full array from my window when darkness falls~ City Stained Glass 2.28.26 Brooklyn

Happy FRIDAY!!! Getting thru to 6pm EST to greet the weekend. : ) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa3q...

Saturday evening, we wisely went out knowing the next day's blizzard would prevent much frivolity. French martinis to celebrate a birthday for one of us and a promotion for another. Magnifique!

Blizzard still doing it's thing in Brooklyn this morning while I have coffee. Hard to see the actual snow accumulation so far from my 8th floor windows... #Coffeesky

Espresso with my Valentine this past weekend at our absolute favorite East Village restaurant Lavagna.~

I missed Prospect Park SO much! Getting around is still treacherous, but it was a balmy 37 this morning.

Braved the Arctic temps on Sunday and we were rewarded with an exhilarating play "The Unknown" with impressive performance by Sean Hayes. Led to lively convo after with our theories.... : )

My timing is off. I need an espresso on this Tuesday morning...but instead I had late night espresso on a Saturday night. Sigh~

After 3 weeks, Friday back out and about! Strawberry martini with our Thai place gussied up for Valentine's Day. #Bloomscrolling Currently watching my curtains blow around like crazy (windows are closed) with the beginning of today's "Extreme cold warning" & "Wind Advisory."

#Coffeesky Unboxing my latest haul of coffee beans (aka nectar of the gods) from @queenbeancoffee.bsky.social Adding to my delight is the wonderful packaging. Do I deserve a present from myself AND coffee beans? Yes. Resounding yes. : )

Battling flu, but here are recent Book club reads, stretching me out of my comfort zone. Both did not believe in paragraph breaks; which my brain was not fond of. Both translated into English; "Satantango"(Hungarian) and "SmalltownNovella" (German). (Gin & Tonic to offset the bleak trudge, pre-flu)

Long weekend has been shaping up nicely. Friday Art Exhibit in Manhattan. Saturday post snow trek in Brooklyn for amazing pasta and cocktails. I hope your weekend is whatever level of cozy makes you glow inside.

Friday Coffee Cheers to #Coffeesky peeps. Pink skies and One World Trade in the distance in Manhattan earlier this week at daybreak. Long weekend so close I can taste it.

So pleased we got to see the delightfully feisty (and 96years old!!) June Squibb in "Marjorie Prime" on Broadway. Dealing w/AI, aging & the intricacies of relationships and the temptation to rewrite our stories (memories).
