| Stephen watching fĂștbol in the living room: Barcelona is playing in Valencia. The beer is made right here in Brooklyn. One of my model skeletons is visible in the foreground. |

| Laundry room round and round. A laundry room is such a luxury really. It’s not that common to have an individual washing machine in New York City. And apartment buildings with basement laundry rooms are simply swell — beats trudging stuff to the launder center. |

| My husband reading in Hamilton’s, a local bar/cafĂ©. Sun is hitting the globe: portentious in Kensington, Brooklyn. |
 |
| Another local cafĂ©, this one in Windsor Terrace, right by the Fort Hamilton Parkway subway stop. Restaurants and cafĂ©s are relatively new to my neighborhood. It’s nice to have them but they come at a very high price: gentrification: tall apartment buildings erected on every available plot of ground. My neighbors tell me (we don’t have a car) that parking has become stressfully competitive. |
