Gourmet Burger Kitchen may have better burgers than NY’s Burger Joint. Pictured about, Madeline’s lentil burger in front of my bacon and avocado burger. So satisfying! Click through to see pictures of us posing with our massive burgers.
!! Elizabeth, telling me that you’ve found a burger better than Burger Joint is like summoning me to take a pilgrimage. My mind can hardly fathom such a delicious burger.
Anyone in New York that hasn’t had a Burger Joint cheeseburger needs to get on it.

Vivian Maier was “a street photographer from the 1950s - 1970s. Vivian’s work was discovered at an auction here in Chicago where she lived for 50 years but was originally a native to France. Her discovered work includes between 30-40,000 mostly medium format negatives. Born February 1, 1926 and deceased on Tuesday, April 21, 2009.”
Pretty excellent work, with an Arbus-y quality to it, even if you discount the fact that the photographer was an unusual woman shooting in medium format.

Hey ASFA kids, do you remember Shannon in dance? She’s still modeling and getting work like iPod ads, etc. She keeps a blog, which is fun to follow.

Little dog on a bicycle, have I blogged you before?
I grew up in Birmingham, Alabama. I recently lived and studied in Paris, France. This summer I lived in Brooklyn and worked at the Center for Book Arts. Now I'm back in Tuscaloosa, studying at the University of Alabama.
You can email me at my gmail address, glynnish. I don't bite.
flickr + vimeo + glynnis.nu = a few other things I do.
