Landmark Loews Jersey Theatre-Movie Palace







On saturday Chris took me on a date to Jersey. I know what you are thinking New Jersey=bleh, but dont let the steriotypes fool you. Well the date consisted of an amazing brunch at the Brownstone which has the best pancakes I've ever eaten. Then a visit to close friends and the first introduction to baby Claire Bear. At 2 months she already has a full head of hair!
But really the whole point of this entry was to talk about the Landmark Loews Jersey Theatre. It is the most Architecturally beautiful buldings I've ever entered. It has gilded coloumns and enormous chandeliers. And to think a few years ago they were going to tear it down to build another set of luxury condos. It is one of the original Movie Palaces, and a palace it was. Every month they show a set of movies. Mostly old movies. But who doesn't love a classic. We saw The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. I found out later that my grandfather worked on it while he did costuming for 20th Century Fox. The ambiance of this theatre is incredible. As you walk in you can hear an organist playing and just before the movie begins the organist is lowered below the stage level as to not block your view. The acoustics! Oh man the acoustics of this place were perfect. Apparently Beck played at this theatre not too long ago and I cant blame him the sound in there sings so sweetly in your ears.
To learn more about the history of this theatre go here: http://www.loewsjersey.org/
and you can also donate to the continuing restoration of the theatre. They have already done about $1 million worthe of restoration. As beautiful as it is now it still has a long way to go to reach its full glory.

Miss Emily Cox


I went to SCAD, and the fibers dept. was incredible. it produced some of the most talented ladies i know. a while back i ran into a friend from scad on the subway Erin Wiser, I know small world. We caught up on the ladies of SCAD fibers and I found out that a girl I very much admired in my dept.(Emily Cox) started working at Woven Play(a costume creator I very much admire). They are made for one another and I congratulate her on landing a dream job. See her here: http://www.emilymariecox.com/

elephant castle


this weekend was busy busy,

brunch with my 2 best girls. one is moving to paris the other is moving thru product design at parsons. we are all missing savannah, ga.

a visit to the park transformed into a bbq. huge burgers and sweet potato fries, home made guaq and home made chips and for dessert we had apple crisp!

sunday we had to clean. we hadnt cleaned since our return from sounthern wedding central. i am not a tidy person and c was getting rather frustrated with my pile of clothes. hammy liked it tho he made himself a nest in clothes mountain. we went to bubby's in DUMBO and had the most incredible buger and potato salad. and oh my gosh the key lime pie!! there is also a secret photobooth next to the bathrooms, i guess its not so secret if you ya'kno use the bathroom. chris and i took our fist couple photos together. we've been dating for 11 months and still have no photos of ourselves in the apartment.
my birthday is in 2 weeks. im getting a tattoo as a present. my bear tat will have to wait til our trip to canada to visit chris' favorite tattoo artist. so im getting something else i drew on my forearm, lets just say there will be hearts. my very first visable tattoo. i have 4 others strategically placed aon my torso, including the bird scene from the little prince book flying up my ribs.
phew long
