rows of stuff

*blurry* pic of appetizers at koreana [aptly named restaurant] in hicksville. clockwise from top left: soy/tea egg, sesame bean sprouts, bok choy kimchee, various animal innards [delish], weird cold noodles [personal favorite], horseradish veggies

rice ball snackies at h&y market. i cant bring myself to buy these as i think i would enjoy half a gooey little guy and then..have 14.5 remaining.

antiviral tissues at target [pronounced tar-ghett not tar-jay]

niko's mediterranean grill & bistro

after a failed attempt to dine at fatty crab, malaysian food, we crossed the street to niko's mediterranean restaurant. turned out to be an amazing choice. and it was the basis of my mardi gras meal.

2161 broadway [corner of 76th]
$20-35 [including app, drink, and dessert]
casual dress, very crowded, good wait staff
mezedes [greek tapas] are average priced $5-7 and well worth it

greek lager. delish

biftekakia smyrneika platter

penne artemis

chinese new year

last weekend a buddy from school, the sister, and i ventured into chinatown for the day before chinese new year. mostly in the hopes that the maddening hordes would wait a day for the official start. eeeeeh its chinatown. so no dice.

reminiscent of the st peter's piaza

at the flower festival tent

amazing cherry blossom painting

$5 pepper decorations = AWESOME. i bought a $1 pineapple.

custard from tai pan

seen at the flower show: a personal washing machine

apparently i could do a small load of wash at work! sweet!

lots of outfits

shirt dress: vintage [?]
black dress: delias
leggings: nz
knee socks: macys
