here, nau, dec.09

lately i've been extra busy working a few hours a week at the Nau pop-up shop in Soho. the product is supercool and the weekly events are cooler. come in tonight for a presentation on NYC design solutions...and cocktails. and join me again on friday night for the falling whistles event...falling whistles is an inspiring organization with a mission to rehabilitate and advocate for war-effected children in the congo. at $30-40, these whistle necklaces make great holiday gifts and 100% of the proceeds go toward the children. friday night's event will debut the gold whistle! cocktails too...

if you can't make it this week, keep checking the schedge...there are public events most thursdays through the end of the month!

pan con tomate
spanish olives
poquito de queso manchego
vasito de vino rioja
