There's a new Catholic in town, and he has a badge.
I met Father Rich Hasselback at a wedding this weekend in New England. A traveling Wedding Officiant with Catholic credentials, and he travels! What a cool guy, lite, bright, and personable, but best thing is that he will do inter-denominational weddings. Catholic-Jewish, Hindu, Protestant. His very warm liberal views are refreshing these days and really supports the need for a man of the cloth to not be so ridgid in the Catholic regulation.
He can be reached here
Digital Picture Frames
Who buys these things? But think about it, with the ability to download 3000 photos it's a great way to liven up a boring and lifeless store display, or one can even take one along to a bridal show. I use to think they were a bit cheesy but I am captivated when I see them. You can find this one at Walmart for $46
Finally the Book is out!
I really never cared for Farmer's Markets until I my wife and I went to Paris with Karen an James, a place they visit 3 or 4 times a year. Of all that Paris offers, visiting the markets and selecting this and that's for dinner was etched on my memory banks not to mention my taste buds for ever. What a lovely way to spend a few hours not only gazing on the fabulous displays of local foods, but observing colorful characters. This passion for Markets inspired Author Karen Seiger to write a book that will show you every nook and cranny of New York Cities unique and colorful farmer's, flee's, artisan's, and fashion markets that according to Karen, rivals any in the world.
The book "Markets of New York City" is published by Little Book Room and is available on Amazon here. Not only will it give you a new fondness for local Markets as only Karen can energize you in a colorful and informative way, but she is the photographer for all the shots too, her sight for the candid ranks here up there with several documentary photographers I know and admire as well.
A Persian New Year's Day Soup, yum
Karen at Markets of New York interviewed NY Chef Louisa Shafia, author of Lucid Food: Cooking for a Eco-Conscious Life. She shared a receipe for "Ash-e-reshteh", A persian dish that has my mouth watering. Best part is that one can gather all the produce ingredients at local Farmers Markets.
Quote of the Day
To analyze the charms of flowers is like dissecting music; it is one of those things which it is far better to enjoy, than to attempt to fully understand.-Henry T. Tuckerman
