The last time I vomited was also the last time I ate at Jamba Juice on Lexington Ave and 87th Street, two years ago. It was the oatmeal with some sort of “berry” topping. Granted, I was hungover, but I have never on any other occasion in my life vomited in association with alcohol consumption.
Anyhoo, I felt vindicated when I saw this Jamba Juice had received a “C” on their restaurant report card from the city health inspector. I took this picture on March 8, 2011.
BUT! Only a few days later the orange “C” was gone and nothing has replaced it still, as of April 2. WTF?

come see “Upon My Word”
a musical play written by Alec Coiro, produced by Erin Krause.
I saw it once and it is HILARIOUS! And I am going back for more!!! Buy tix soon because it will sell out again!!!

Waiting for the bus somewhere on Fifth Ave, there was this strong sweet smell of rotting leaves. It was nice. I can smell it now, looking at these photos.
But, it reminded me that a few days earlier my brother and I were walking down Fifth and smelled a stronger tree smell, bordering on nauseous. He said he had heard about a certain tree species whose smell has been bothering its neighbors.
After some googling, here is the culprit: Female Ginkgo Biloba Trees a.k.a. Maidenhair Tree (I didn’t know trees had genders!)
From one of my favorite Craigslist “for sale” postings on The Upper East Side:

I forgot about Mr. Peanut but looking at him now I think he’s pretty cool! Also, his name is Mr. Peanut. Not some cheesy pun on peanut, but just what he is! Like if an almond company’s character was called Mr. Almond or if Oreck had Mr. Vacuum Cleaner…Mr. Fan, Mr. Mattress, etc.
