Yesterday I decided to give flying a rest for a few hours, and got a ride on the IKEA shuttle to Red Hook, Brooklyn in order to check out a neighborhood I had never explored before. After stuffing a few meatballs down with sugary juice in the cafeteria, I left IKEA to explore, what first appeared to be a crazy industrial sea town with abandoned houses and lots. Finally, I happened upon a quaint little street with some great stores and cafes... and one in particular that really rocked my world. No bat merchandise, but other incredibly cute stuff. It's called Foxy & Winston. Red Hook proved to a be a town I can't quite describe, other than to say- check it out yourself and don't be surprised if you find a few unexpected treasures like the suburban style plant nursery, and amazing waterfront views.

Film Biz Recycle Prop Shop
Hey All! I've been spreading the word this week about this awesome place I visited in Park Slope last weekend. Film Biz Recycle Prop Shop is located in Brooklyn off the Union Stop on the R train and is super easy to get to... You enter through this impressive looking gate, walk all the way through this old, warehouse looking building... and then finally arrive at a huge room of antiques, clothes, furniture and other rare finds. Super cool place for artists, as all the items are reasonably priced. I purchased this cute antique yawning dog, and they threw the moss in for free!! Awesomeness! Love & Liquor Chocolate Candies, LL
