Stoveless in New York City!
Well, whatever I am having will have to be cold, they are taking out my stove today and I might not get a stove until Wednesday or Thursday! Tonight is NYC Queer Knitting, so I will have something delicious at Whole Foods, but I dread waking up tomorrow morning with no coffee (I make mine in my Italian espresso macchinetta, on the stove top)! This is when I wish I had my electric espresso maker (It's in my classroom!)
Oh! Well! There is a nice little café (The Victory) at the corner of my block!
Elle*, making do!
