Happened to notice that there's a new awning up where the old Arunee used to be, so I had to check it out.

It looks like it's called CAFE 79 and it's going to be (hold out for a shocker) A THAI RESTAURANT! Looks like there was a gut renovation - black & white octagonal tile on the floor, black subway tile on the walls, a banquet, nice little marble top bistro tables. The window sign read CAFE 79 THAI KITCHEN JACKSON HEIGHTS.

We love Cafe 79. It's our go-to Thai place now!

I'm watching a news conference with Mayor de Blasio talking about this storm.  He says it has the potential to be an historic snowfall for New York City.  I'm usually in the minority by being a snow lover, but this storm sounds menacing.  Can it be just the usual media hype pre-snowfall?

The shoe repair place has very good galoshes -37th street between 79th + 80th.  They should be open early on Monday morning.

i am so excited!

but something odd....did some shopping at the foodtown this morning, and not a single person had a cart filled with 100 packages of oscar mayer bologna or little debbie snack cakes.....clearly people are not taking this seriously.

Had their chocolate doughnut yesterday.  Might be the worst doughnut I ever purchased in my life.  Stale and tasteless.  I get it that doughnuts are not the forte of a spanish bakery, but it made me gun shy of going back their for anything else.

I actually had their chocolate donut last week and it was pretty good! I have been there just once so maybe I was lucky and got a new one.
