adventures of mascarah.
I have always wanted to be "a writer" but I'm lost somewhere in the prologue...whittling away at a story I may never tell.
Likes: pop culture. my chihuahua. architecture. modern art. elizabeth street. contemporary designer apparel. food. travel. foreign films. speakeasys. live music. politics. hot sauce. surprises. running in the rain. strangers. wednesdays. fearlessness...and 100s of other random things... maybe even you.
A southerner by birth, northerner by the grace of God, I'm simply a nyc gal who is lost somewhere on my constant exploration of the city and the life,love, and pursuit found within it.

What a boozer. (Taken with instagram)
Since I first started blogging on Tumblr sometime in December 2007 (man I used to reblog a lot back then), I wasn’t sure what was going to happen and have been amazed by what has.
I’ve met so many great people, read so many fantastic original thoughts and fallen in love with so many images. It’s been rewarding and fulfilling in my ways.
Sometime in the past year, I’ve found myself abandoning the Tumblr community…I don’t the passion to share what I used to in the ways I used to share it and I don’t have the time to engage well in what all of you share, although I wish that I did.
In thinking about change in the new year (don’t we all do that? cliche but so dang true) I thought about how I could become a better, more viable member of this community once again…and I thought…and I thought.
Then, mid-way through a bag of pretzels on my parents couch preparing to Yelp about The Admiral (freaking amazing) in Asheville, NC it was like a long overdue light bulb went off in my mind…food. I must shift the focus of this to food.
That’s as far as I’ve made it.
I’m leaning towards 2-3x original reviews with context per week. Lame? Overdone? Not compelling? Would love to know what YOU think.
But I’m thinking that’s where this train might be headed…

New song? No idea. I haven’t heard new country tunes in ages. Living this one though. He had me at devil driving a coupe de ville. (Taken with instagram)
