News flash

Hanging out with two 14 year old boys for the weekend is tons of fun. Because they are two 14 year old boys, the weekend did seem to revolve around procuring food items but we managed to weave in lots of other fun. Colin is the cousin who can have fun locked in a closet. He's the cousin who gets along with all. Colin is the cousin who tries to place the exact taste in the tabbouleh that is so yummy. We agree he should live in the city with us, but alas, he must return to the wilds of Pennsylvania but were so glad he was here. The boys had a great time. I even managed to get rid of 20 fresh direct boxes when last night we sent them on a mission, under cover of darkness to bring them into a demo dumpster down the street. They loved the adventure and I cleared my hallway. I call that a win win

Clarke rocked the auditions. Yeah yeah, of course was proud but i feel that's all I've been typing these days so I'll spare you the maudlin details. We find out end of June, but that's almost besides the point, right?

Here's another newsflash. NY tourism is alive and well. Holy cats were the crowds insane. Here are a few pics of our heroes.
