Warning!!! This post is all about Brooklyn stuff. Last weekend I went to the new weekend flea market, Brooklyn Flea in Fort Greene. It was packed by the way with lots of vendors like Amy who I know from Ladies Who Launch. Afterward, I met up with a friend to have a few pints at the Brooklyn Inn on Hoyt Street. Oh, and lately I have been reading Brooklyn Based to find out what’s going on. By the way, there will be a Grand Street Block Party on May 17.
Eat, drink and be merry! It’s that time of year again. It’s Mardi Gras, Shrove Tuesday and Carnivale! The best way to celebrate is with Reverend Vince Anderson and his Love Choir. On FAT TUESDAY, February 24th
Come celebrate the beginning of Lent with a bachanallian throwdown..

Watson Adventures is having a scavenger hunt this Saturday, January 31 at the lovely Brooklyn Museum of Art. Come discover and enjoy the Brooklyn Museum of Art, New York’s most underrated museum! During the hunt, you’ll see almost every room in the museum’s five floors, including the new Egyptian gallery, the new exhibition of European art in the stunning Beaux Art court, and the recently reinstalled African and American galleries. This is one of my personal favorites, with lots of variety and very cool period rooms that take you back to colonial America. And fear not, Manhattanites—it’s easy to get there! The 2 and 3 trains stop right in front of the museum. Price: $25, which includes museum admission. Time: 3 to 5:30 PM
