Astoria Life: New York Minutes

Musings from the Queen of Queens, or My 6 years of living in Queens and greater NYC, where I moved to work for the water department and ended up, among other things, traveling the world and appearing on a billboard on Times Square.

Hey, he's working on it!

I was at the Barnes & Noble in Union Square where people are invariably camped out on the floor reading books.

I saw a homeless man fast asleep in the Self-Improvement section.

Dashing Divas!

I had a belated birthday party at Dashing Diva on the Upper West Side. Three of my diva-esque friends came.

Dashing Diva has sofas where you can sit together and have drinks brought to you as you get pedicures together. It is exceedingly pink in there. Check them out at: www.dashingdiva.com

Hey -- it's croquet!

I found the cutest croquet green, as part of the New York Croquet Club, at W 68th and Central Park West. People were out playing croquet, dressed in white dresses and golf attire.

I saw a bunch of nuns waiting for the subway at the 51st Street station. They were socute!
