Little Red Riding Hood, You Sure Are Looking Good

Riding the bike in the Red Hook neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York.

Halloween Christmas decorations in January need not lose their value

Red Hook and Brooklyn in general during the winter can be bleak or beautiful depending on the block you're on.  Sometimes the beauty can lie within the bleakness.  For example, above, there lives a presence in the abandoned car deteriorating behind that fence.  A story is told just by it's mere existence and state of disrepair.  It's almost stately if you stand there and stare at it.  Like an old elephant at the zoo.  This is possibly all nonsense decided in the mind and in the moment you're in but it sure does feel real. 

Dinner was a thing of simplistic beauty.  Baked chicken, herby mashed potatoes, vegetable greens and for extra carb overload, boxed mac and cheese.
