Almondine treats

leave a comment »

Took a nice Monday morning bike ride to DUMBO where I stopped by the French bakery Almondine. I got myself some macaroons, pain au chocolat, an eclair, and a croissant. They were super tasty, especially the macaroons, which just melted away in my mouth and wasn’t overwhelmingly sweet.

Buttermilk Channel Brunch

leave a comment »

One of the best deals around – all dishes are under $15 and in the $10- $11 range and include coffee and an alcoholic drink (mimosa, Bellini, or sparkling wine) at no extra cost. Our meal for two with a short stack of pancakes on the side was less than $30 before tip. Oh, and did I mention that the food is awesome?

A Week in Vermont

leave a comment »

Had a nice week in South Hero, Vermont. Got a good amount of work done and also managed to take a daytrip to Montreal where we ate our brains out and also had some luck with roulette. In Vermont, we chopped wood for our fireplace, played touch football and tennis, rode the bike on the island railway trail (again), attended Applefest, ate ridiculous amounts of meat and junk food, drank beer with only our left hands, and even tried our hand at being plumbers (we failed). Will miss the gorgeous lake view and peaceful quiet, but looking forward to warmer nights and being reunited with Kitty and Chocolate.

New Work: Skydeck360.com Intro Video

leave a comment »

Skydeck360 is a new online recruiting tool designed to help top MBA candidates get jobs in this tough market. We provided art direction, illustration, and Flash animation to create a short video introducing their service. Little did we know how much of a huge pain it would be to convert a SWF into a video file that would upload to YouTube. Thankfully, we came across Sreenium, which allowed us to capture the SWF on our screen and make it into a MOV file. Skydeck360 is currently opening up its services to students at Harvard Business School and recruiters looking to hire there.

Barrel @ Vermont this week

leave a comment »

We’ll be working from a lakeside house this week in South Hero, VT. Thought it’d be nice to get some fresh air while we get things done. We’ve also managed to chop some wood, row the canoe, and make lots of s’mores. It’s a bit chilly up here, but we’re looking forward to a fun and active week. More pics coming soon!

Atlantic Antic

leave a comment »

Had a nice time checking out Atlantic Antic with Kitty this afternoon. The Atlantic Antic is Brooklyn’s largest street fair. Weather was perfect and I didn’t feel too uncomfortable walking among large crowds. Had arepas, oysters, and chocolate-covered keylime pie along the way. Sixpoint Atlantic Antic Amber wad tasty too.
