I passed this sign approximately 100 times pre-Sandy.
Now it’s a good reminder that people are still hurting on multiple levels.
If you want to help, here are a few ways to consider.
1. This book by Damien Echols. I enjoy reading memoirs and the less they are like my own life, the better.
2. A Bazinga lunchbox for my Big Bang Theory-loving Dad. Not sure what he’d do with it but still! 
3. These Stuart Weitzman boots. I’d kick so much a$$ wearing them.
4. This pink opal ring 
5. Items for people affected by Sandy. All is not back to normal, folks.
Fortunately my regular train, the L, is back in service now.
1. Kristen Stewart’s youthful good looks
2. …and her wardrobe. Nice work by fellow Cornell alumna Tara Swennen. I love this round-up from Fashion Court.
3. Anyone who has plans to go to this resort.
4. Shaun Robinson for managing to look like the also gorgeous Kerry Washington’s sister
5. This Sandy relief worker from Chicago who won the lottery.

Damage in my neighborhood was minimal. Continue reading
Whole Foods is slated to open in Williamsburg at the intersection of Bedford Avenue and N. 4th Street mid-2014. For now, though, the site is a more or less a boarded up, open-air, unfinished warehouse.
At least it was boarded up.
Sandy made an impact.
Is it any wonder this lamppost fell down?
Bedford Avenue is Williamsburg’s main drag so the city is very fortunate no one was killed as it keeled over.
New York City’s infrastructure is crumbling. This is the tip of the iceberg.
