my friend Crystal is helping me create my newsletter for August and bless her heart she picked the sandwich stock photo while attempting to learn HTML coding.
I’m kinda digging it.
Dear Neighbors,
There is a wrong way to eat muffins. This is how my friend Alisha eats muffins, and it is one of the wrong ways. It hurts me to even think about it. She scoops the inside out with a fork leaving behind the crispy edges of the muffin top and the ridged sides of the muffin base and basically leaving behind a sad, deformed carcass of a muffin. Please do not try this at home. Evey time this happens an angel loses its wings. Or something.
Dear Alisha: You are a muffin murderer.

(Please note that the pieces of muffin top that are missing were eaten by me.)
HATER.
adult life
- Alisha Miranda: same with me! yay struggling!
- Sarah Neighbor: one day we will be adults!
- Sarah Neighbor: adults take naps and eat cookies for dinner, right?
Dear Neighbors,
This is the only photo I managed to take during the Bed Stuy crawl on Saturday. I will admit that this was not actually my sandwich, because by the time I decided the pulled pork and gingered slaw was delicious enough to warrant a photo, mine was already gone. Frenchie kindly obliged and let me take a picture of his instead. I really want to go back to Bedford Hill and try their herbed grilled cheese with prosciutto. Yum!!

reasons I love this photo:
1) it’s Sara! and she was drunk!
2) no really she devoured the sandwich in like 3 secs
3) the only pics ever shared of the boof are always just his shirt
4) yay friendships at Bed-Stuy Crawl!
5) you should all def go visit Bedford Hill
adult life is dumb.
- Alisha M.: adult life is dumb, is my conclusion haha
- Nick R.: it's pretending that things that don't matter do matter and telling you it's no longer okay to jump in puddles during a spring thunderstorm. fuck adulthood, right in the ear.
Spring picnic with Alisha et al. We throw things. We grill things. This will become a regular occurrence; y’all should get on board.
I mean, honestly, Prospect Park Sundays are the bees knees.
Hey Neighbors,
Pictured above is Smooch, a lovely little organic cafe in Fort Greene where I met up with a fellow tumblr user last weekend. It was lovely. I think that recently I have been really blessed and have been meeting a lot of passionate and fascinating people. They each keep inspiring me to do new things and improve my life. Alisha was great and really reinvigorate my desire to travel and reminded me about some great things that I love in Brooklyn (like independent books stores and delicious food). It was really a great experience and I can’t wait for my next trip!

if you let me, I will fill your days with talks of Brooklyn, food, and travel. it’s just my life these days, and I love it.
TREATYOSELF to a Sunday dinner with ingredients picked by your friends window garden after celebrating a victorious frisbee game in the park with your French boyfriend and ‘hood mate to which I will now rest and plan out Portugal vacation.
I will absolutely write a blog post about it. Yay book dates in Brooklyn!Hey Tumblrizers,
I have an IRL date with a fellow Tumblr user and I am pretty, pretty excited. (I hope she doesn’t turn out to be some evil, murdering, serial killer, which is what I always worry about before dates. If she eats my face do you think she will write a blog post about it?) Also, I will get to check out Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene. Then it’s off to the Greenpoint Gallery Tour. This is going to be a good weekend!
See you around town!
