Clues
It’s pretty easy to tell when I get busy — the blog dies down significantly. Then again, Gothamist posts are still going . . . I have a bunch of pictures to upload from the weekend, but for now here’s the brief recap: dinner at Resto with Ali, training session, run, dim sum at Chinatown

Weekend Wrapup
Friday was a great day. Not only was it gorgeous out, but I was back on solid food. I relished every bite of my first meal of the day — a half of a whole wheat bagel, plain yogurt, blueberries, and some sliced pineapple — certainly not exciting, but man, was it good. And don’t

"Sweet Heart" Necco Conversation Heart sculpture by Nathan Sawaya, who made me some of the best valentines (and flowers) I ever received, just for the record.

Weekend Wrapup
Still dealing with the number crunching, but managed to fit in some fun this weekend. Friday night I had sushi with Gabe at Le Miu, a spot in the East Village. Some of the chefs have Nobu pedigrees, and although they are trying to do some inventive things with the cooked dishes, I think we
