1.2.11, back in the 11211

I started 2010 doing brunch at Boneshakers [read here] so why not continue the tradition?

Last year I said: “There’s something about 1/1 that motivates change. Yes, I subscribe to that New Years philosophy of renewal and growth, mostly because I appreciate the year as a unit of measurement, appreciate a set span of time to classify with a numerical code, appreciate some kind of end-point. I remain awed by 2009, what I managed to cram inside its 365 days. My life exactly one year ago seems way, way further in the past.” And the same is true of 2010. Tonight, in the face of returning to work and acclimating back into my daily life in Brooklyn, Christmas seems a distant dream already. Familiar traditions help me re-enter society a bit easier. So let’s eat for some energy!
