Rows of peanut butter at park at end of Manhattan Ave??
Follows are a few observations/thoughts:
- While nice, the partially consumed jar of chocolate body paint I found on West Street several years ago still reigns supreme.
- Where the hell is the jelly?!?

Greenpoint Photo du Jour: 1005 Manhattan Avenue
Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Stuff That Makes Miss Heather Happy
Many north ‘Pointers have probably noticed that this space (former home of El Encanto Mexicano) has been undergone a serious overhaul. Today, after commending the owner on the lovely job he has done rehabbing this storefront, I inquired as to what was to occupy his new and improved space.
An Indian/Spanish deli
he replied.
Color me excited!

March may not be upon us just yet, but the lovely (and incredibly dedicated) lady at 57 Franklin Street has already seen fit to prepare for St. Paddy’s Day. Following this will undoubtedly come my very favorite holiday display of all: Easter! To get a taste as to what multicolored goodness awaits us in April click here!

Urban Fur: Iris
Filed under: 11222, Greenpoint, Greenpoint Brooklyn, Greenpoint Magic, Urban Fur
I happened upon this fetching lass (who clearly has a taste for the finer things in life) while passing Bagatelle yesterday afternoon. Intrigued, I went inside so as to inquire of her name. The kindly storekeeper explained that Iris, despite her kittens being adopted, is still awaiting a loving home.
The details I received about Iris are scant. She is two years old and I can personally attest she is petite and quite sweet— if a mite bit shy. Anyone interested in giving this lady a forever home (or simply a head scratch) can/should swing by 714 Manhattan Avenue. You will not be disappointed!
