Wowowow!! Tokidoki in Manila?! Hate to miss that. sigh. Attended the AIGA small talk at Bumble and Bumble last night though and had a good, educational evening.
Presenting, the Lady M Mille Crepe cake! A perfectly light and rich dessert. Mmmmm. I’m already dreaming of my next visit. Lady M Cake Boutique is located at 41 East 78th St. (between Madison and Park Avenues). I pulled this picture from their website to show you how it looks.
Not one of my favorite Penguin covers, but it is still a collection of poetry by our very own Jose Garcia Villa. Leonard Lopate is discussing it today on his show. Here’s the little write-up from wnyc.org.
The Poetry of José Garcia Villa
Known as the “Pope of Greenwich Village,” Filipino writer José Garcia Villa was the only Asian poet among the literary giants of 1940s New York. John Edwin Cowen and Luis H. Francia discuss Doveglion, the centennial edition of Villa’s collected poetry.

It’s on view until the 21st of September.
Here’s the link for more information: http://www.whitney.org/www/buckminster_fuller/about.jsp

It’s the opening of Mariano Ching’s solo show!! I’ve posted about his work before–really lovely stuff. Do try to swing by if you can. I’m sure it’s worth the trek into the belly of the beast.
