Tears
When I went wandering in Harlem on Saturday, I found this beauty salon on Frederick Douglass Blvd. at 139th Street. Tell me this isn't the best beauty salon name EVER?!
I'm not sure what it means -- maybe when you leave, you're so elegant you burst into tears?
Yesterday I took the afternoon off work and walked around Williamsburg, Brooklyn, with Lettuce and Chedwick. We found lots of street art, ate free pizza and plundered a Salvation Army thrift store, where for 99 cents I bought a t-shirt that pledges my love for Henry. (I was actually unaware of Henry's existence until I saw the shirt, but never mind.)

Tears of Elegance: in French, there is a saying: Il faut souffrir pour ĂȘtre belle "One must suffer to be beautiful" - so... take it from there.
ReplyDeleteThe t-shirt: Oh, Henry must be so pleased :-)
