The handiworking is a crochet scarf with some really lovely wool I picked up at the Rhinebeck Sheep and Wool Festival last month, highly recommend a craft to distract from The Horrors

The epilogue to the book about the Edmund Fitzgerald includes the lyrics to “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” and “Brandy (You’re a Fine Girl),” which pleases me greatly

I finally took the NYT “Are you a true New Yorker?” quiz and, well,
23 out of 25. You Should Run For Mayor Congratulations — you don’t just know New York, you are New York. You’ve mastered the subway transfers, perfected the sidewalk shuffle, and probably have a favorite coffee cart guy who knows your order before you say a word. From uptown to downtown, you navigate the city with the ease of someone who’s lived here a lifetime. Honestly, if you threw your hat in the ring for mayor, you’d have the boroughs behind you.
