This "mom and pop" store has been around since the late '80s, bought many cards here over the years -- even enjoyed many a haagen dasz ice cream in the adjacent cafe.
Wonder which bank or chain will take its place?

Master Cleansed
Day 11 was spent sipping fresh squeezed orange juice, grapefruit juice and water.
Day 12 I made a hearty veggie soup comprised of carrots, celery, leeks, onions, basmati rice and mung beans. Added some okra and forgetting its thickening qualities, my veggie soup turned into gumbo (an added plus)!
Today, Day 13 I started eating solid foods in small portions: raw fruit, veggie gumbo, wild rice and a delightful succotash made with okra, collard greens, haricots verts and stewed tomatoes.
Happy to report no upset stomach, metabolism is moving along well. It's interesting how a new awareness of digestion has surfaced since being on this cleanse, I can hear and feel the food going through the digestion process.
Overall, this experiment was challenging, insightful and I truly believe beneficial for my overall health. My cravings for pizza (Artichoke), beer (sweet action), fried foods (fried chicken and calamari) have subsided -- I'm leaning towards fruits and vegetables for sustenance rather than chips and simple carb food.
On a sidenote, my body has shed 13 lbs as a result of completing this cleanse. With a new focus in eating habits, I am sure I could lean out even more. My clothes fit better (pants are much looser) and I feel better.
Most important, I have a heightened sense of being...this whole process reinforces how important it is to "be" present in the moment and how your choice of emotions affect your present experience.
Looking forward to the next Master Cleanse in January 2009!

Master cleanse
Why are we going through such a drastic protocol? It's part of our seasonal tradition to cleanse - we decided instead of going through a 30-day cleanse cycle using herb extracts with Renew Life, we would see if we had the willpower and endurance to attempt an all-liquid cleanse using the Master Cleanse protocol.
Wish us luck! Stay tuned for updates!

The Best Tech Tools and Fitness Plans to Get in Shape
This isn't a "How to lose 200 pounds in a year" article, but it could be. Despite the proliferation of diet plans and expensive exercise equipment, the key to fitness is and always will be healthy eating, portion control, and a solid exercise routine. Here are some of the tips and tools we've covered over the years, many of which I use regularly.

Justice!: The Police caught this punk!
After reading the article in The Gothamist about this punk who mugged and punched a 62-year old woman outside of her work place in Marine Park Brooklyn and then proceeded to steal her car -- I was beginning to think NY is going back to its nitty-gritty. Glad to hear they caught the kid who allegedly did this heinous act.
Die Hard Yuppie Scum Protest
After seeing postings and numerous articles about the "Die Hard Yuppie Scum" protest against The Bowery Wine Company (a "wine bar"),land developers, ruthless landlords, and of course, yuppies...The protest took place outside the Bowery Wine Company bar, we thought to see what all the fuss is about.
