Sunday afternoon I was still thinking about how to best illustrate Transition in a single image. The “yarn to knitted hat” photo was well received. What else could I depict to show transition?
Talking about it with my sister, she suggested the ice cube.
I was hoping to get a lone droplet falling off but this one is about to drop.
In my sisters kitchen, New York.
Photographing ice reminded me of trying to photograph glass so it doesn’t look blah.
I like responding to the challenges and seeing how others interpret the same theme.
Waiting in line to see the Temple of Dendur at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Aunt Mary reading with Maura from her new book about Egypt.
Mark photographing the boys as Washington Crosses the Delaware. Although I’ve seen the painting I couldn’t have told you the artist’s name –Emanuel Gottlieb Leutz
Maura and her pretzel after the museum
Lighting candles where Mark’s paternal grandparents were married in this chapel behind the main altar of
St. Patrick’s Cathedral. I believe the year was 1947.(Bobbie?)
30 Rockefeller Center at Night
Maura likes the American Girl Store Window
Grand Central in the background
You have to have a few posed shots, attempting to get everyone with you at the same time. HA!
Michael watches the trains at the Transit Museum
Subway ride back to Aunt Mary’s station stop.
(The hat pattern is Sockhead Hat by Kelly McClure on Ravelry)
The Flatiron Building Built in 1902. Maybe the most photographed building in New York City. Here’s one more.
Maybe you read Mark Bittman’s farewell article A Slice of Heaven in Pittsburgh (in the NYTimes) about the Pittsburgh bakery- Bread and Salt.
My neighbor and I went over to Bloomfield and got in line to order our lunch. We took it to go.
Open Friday, Saturday and Sunday you need to plan ahead.
You can order via email. If you ordered bread or pizza online you don’t have to wait in the line. Just go ahead to the counter, pay and pick up.
Samples of bread are in bowls on the counter. Here are a couple of loaves. They are sold by the pound so you can get exactly what you need, you don’t have to buy the whole loaf.
Here is Laura on her first day of work. She was gracious to let me photograph her.
That’s a ricotta/almond cake. They weigh the bread and pizza. It was Laura’s (smiling on right) first day
We sampled all four types offered on Friday.
We had a nice lunch back at my neighbor’s.
Lots of fresh veggie toppings.
The one on the right is the Rosa pizza with oregano.
The classic Margherita was my favorite. The combination of basil, fresh mozzarella and tomatoes so fragrant and delicious. Next time I plan to try the bread.
Writer Hal Klein has an article in Pittsburgh Magazine describing the breads, the baker Rick Easton and the bakery
