My favorite things

I've already shown you the sheep (who's doing fine, by the way - although I think the maid vacuum cleans him as he's getting woolier). So I thought I'd show you some other little things that make me happy in Boom.

Here's Alex, the New Mexican frog who had to have his legs glued back on after a bumpy ride down the backstreets of St Antonio:


The Warhol which was given to me by a friend in New York and which I believe came from poster.com. Transporting that and a mirror from her flat on top of Magnolia bakery to mine resulted in an epic taxi crash:


Stuff White People Like (Standing still at concerts, NPR, Film festivals, Apple, Manhattan and now Brooklyn, Architecture, Obama, Bicycles, Ray Ban). I think these nicely sum up life in New York:


Postcards stuck into frames liven up the stairs to the roof. The cards were given to us at various points by Little Miss Tiny T:


Mexican fish chills on the whitewashed wall. My mum gave me this after disappearing into the depths of DF while I was working on a tequila project:


The goat that warms wires. Or.. a highly dangerous way to cover wires. In case anyone's asking, yes T used to live at the Guitar Center in Union Square:


Surf boards in strange places. Signature T:


East Village Monsters. These remind me of my dentist when I was small - he had them in a huge jar at reception:

  2. Haha! It was with you!! Remember, the cab got crashed into from behind when we were sitting in the back with the duvet, mirror and the painting? I think it was just outside your house on Bleeker.
