If you follow me on Twitter, you will know that we have contacted the 68th Precinct twice and both times they didn’t come. Long story short: We have a narrow driveway and some people park in it so we can’t get out. Prior to last month, we would just drive on our neighbors sidewalk and go […]
Wednesday, August 5th, 2015Marty Golden – Bay Ridge Why Do We Have a Representative Who Doesn’t Follow the Rules?
The story is here, here and here. A mistake was made. Money is no longer allowed to be used for club membership. There are around 60 state senators and only Golden and Dean Skelos did this. When you make a mistake, issue an apology and refund the money – it’s that simple. Instead […]

Friday, July 31st, 2015Taking a Cooking Class in Indian Cuisine Tonight!
Lee and I are taking a class in Indian cuisine. I wasn’t looking to take a couple’s cooking class, I just wanted to go and learn how to cook Indian Food. When I told Lee about it, he wanted to go to. The chef has the cooking classes at her home in Brooklyn. I […]
Friday, July 31st, 2015Home Insurance in Bay Ridge
Paperwork and boring stuff…….skip if you aren’t in the market for home insurance. When we purchased our home in Bay Ridge, it was a pain to get home insurance because insurance companies were leary about insuring the area because a tornado blew through one or two blocks two years prior. Yes, a tornado hit […]
Thursday, July 30th, 2015New Light Fixture
It’s the hottest day of the year and I had Lee put up the new light fixture……seriously, he is the best! I purchased the fan and light through Horchow’s Tick Tock Click Tock sale. It’s the type of sale that they have only for a few hours on certain days. The Craftmade Fan was […]
Wednesday, July 29th, 2015Fresh Seafood in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn
I love seafood! I like almost all types except maybe scallops (someone served undercooked scallops one time). During the Winter, I don’t eat fish as often because I don’t like the lingering smell it leaves in the house. In the Summer, it’s so easy to cook fish on the grill. I love fresh fish […]
Wednesday, July 29th, 2015St. Ephrem School will have 300 new UPK seats in September
Whoever thought of putting a large amount of UPK seats in Saint Ephrem’s School is a genius! The school is in a good central spot in community and more Pre-K seats were desperately needed in Bay Ridge as many people received UPK seat (Universal Pre-K – the free kindergarten program Mayor Deblasio enacted throughout NYC) in […]
Tuesday, July 28th, 2015Jasons in Bay Ridge is Closing
Sorry to see Jason’s is closing. It was in business for 75 years. At one time there they were the store to go to. My grandmother even went to Jasons (but a different location on 5th Avenue that closed many years ago). But it’s becoming a Universal Pre K so that’s worth it for our […]
Tuesday, July 28th, 2015Happy Anniversary Skinflints – Low, Low Prices Bay Ridge
Skinflints is celebrating their anniversary and has a special low cost menu – they rolled back the prices. You know it’s gong to be packed in there when they have a menu with these prices. Yes that is $2.75 for a bacon cheeseburger.

A new barbecue restaurant opened in Bay Ridge called The Pig Guy 8413 – 3rd Avenue . It’s where the bagel store, Bunch of Bagels used to be; the Pig Guy is located next to the Bookmarke Shoppe Bookstore. Our friend stopped over with some items from the Pig Guy and everything tasted […]
