beautiful fall day in Ohio

Today we celebrated Isaac's birthday and my niece's birthday in Columbus. Isaac wanted to go to Tanuki to wear the birthday head. We went to an apple farm and picked Melrose and Suncrisp apples. Me Ha and my mom made apple tart when we got back...yum.

On the water

We also visited the Brooklyn Flea. We've been to the location in Fort Greene, but really wanted to visit the Williamsburg location right on the water.

And then took the East River ferry back to Manhattan. I continue to be amazed at how beautiful New York is.

On the other side of the East River, South Street Seaport is another area we love. The buildings and streets are brick, and all of the businesses have a similar refined industrial theme.

Keg 229 is a fantastic little bar/restaurant with a great interior.

I love the red barstools!

Boardwalk Empire Train

A couple of weekends ago, we got the chance to ride on a subway car from 1917 in New York. It was to promote the new season of Boardwalk Empire. We had to run to catch this train, but it was worth it!

New Immigrants to Youngstown

Thought you all might like see Ely being honored recently at a local event focusing on New Women Immigrants to our area. The event was held at a local museum of history and featured about 18 women of various origins. Each woman had photos exhibited and a brief history of their arrival to the area and their life now. It was a nice event.

Birthday present

Last night was my friend Lisiane's birthday. We made her a book like those books for kids where you can change the fore head, the eyes and nose and the mouth. She can mix our faces ! It's so fun to make !

This is how I was dressed up last night for the party :)
