Bundled up like a bratwurst in a bun – dievca walked home from work on Wednesday
and caught sight of these two pieces of Artwork in an empty gallery.
They made her stop and smile.
One of the Gallery workers stuck his head out the door and said the show opened the next day.
dievca missed the cocktail opening on Thursday,
but will ask her Master to join her for a “looksee” at the gallery, next week. 
If you cannot make it to 10th Avenue before the March closing – here’s the catalog for the
Connor Brothers’ Show,”A Dangerous Idea” :

Biggest (Christmas tree) Balls of Them All~

As dievca and Master were traversing Midtown to get some Holiday Photos, lo and behold they ran into some Really Big Balls… Master got on to a roll of quips that had dievca in stitches and, of course, dievca couldn’t remember any of them for today’s post.
So, she asked Master if he remembered what he said:
“In New York City, even the buildings have big balls.”
“If you have big balls, you don’t need to show them.”
from dievca:
Would you mind giving my balls a quick polish?
Size up those balls, Boys!
Not as delicious as Schweddy Balls.

On their Christmas show, NPR hosts Margaret Jo McCullin (Ana Gasteyer) and Terry Rialto (Molly Shannon) welcome baker Pete Schweddy (Alec Baldwin) to “The Delicious Dish” to discuss his famous holiday dessert: Schweddy balls. [Season 24, 1998]
Do you have any good quips?

Apparently the ADA’s came into a Court Room of the NYC Grand Jury and it smelled heavily of wine, so alcohol has been forbidden in the Courthouse – a memo went out~
Yes, dievca did ask the Warden if the Jury could do something afterward. No go~
she will work the morning holding a coffee, do her Jury Duty, have one Prosecco before hopping on the bike to get to work for the second round.
An extra 20 hours a week (that includes the commute) has taken its toll. dievca needs to celebrate the end.
Who better to celebrate with than Talullah Bankhead?
Now let her get that damn 8 year pass for doing Grand Jury Duty….
Found! Mulled Wine

Master was kind enough to slog through the crowds for dievca’s photos. And they decided to finish off the evening with a warm drink.
After heading to the UWS, they couldn’t find the bar/restaurant where Master had seen the placard advertising toasty drinks. As they canvassed the Avenue, dievca spotted a board offering “mulled wine” at a brick oven pizza place. They decided to give it a go~
A good choice!
Glögi, also called Glühwein or mulled wine, is a spiced, usually alcoholic drink, served warm. The original form of Glögi, a spiced liquor, was used to revive messengers and postmen who traveled on horseback or skis in cold weather in Scandinavia.
It revived Master and dievca.
dievca used to get some great mulled wine in Maryland and was happy to finally find a place in NYC. The pizza was pretty good, too.
And if you don’t have a place in your ‘hood, here’s a simple way to make it.
MULLED WINE
Make on the stove-top (or simmer in the slow cooker) and it’s easy to customize with your favorite spices and add-ins, and it is cozy and delicious. Perfect for winter and holiday entertaining!
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 (750 ml) bottle of dry red wine (inexpensive as the mulling spices and citrus will take over)
- 1 orange, sliced into rounds
- 8 whole cloves
- 2 cinnamon sticks (stirring in powdered cinnamon works in a pinch)
- 2 star anise
- 2-4 tablespoons sugar, honey, or maple syrup to taste (or your desired sweetener)
- optional add-in: 1/4 cup brandy (or your favorite liqueur)
- optional garnishes: citrus slices (orange, lemon and/or lime), extra cinnamon sticks, extra star anise
DIRECTIONS:
- Combine all ingredients in a saucepan, and heat just barely to a simmer over medium-high heat. (Be careful not to boil the mulled wine — you don’t want to boil off the alcohol.) Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and let the wine simmer for at least 15 minutes or up to 3 hours.
(You can use a crockpot or instapot, too) - Strain, and serve warm with your desired garnishes.
*Feel free to use your choice of sweetener here, or leave the mulled wine un-sweetened.
**You can also place the oranges, cloves, cinnamon, and star anise in a cheesecloth. Then simply pull out the bundle and strain when ready to serve.
Here’s dievca’s next plan:
The first snow of 2018 and something of use.
Posted: November 16, 2018 Filed under: Accessories, Home and Garden, Neighborhood Anecdotes (NYC) | Tags: 2018, BDSM, Cold Weather, D/s, dievca, Life, NYC, Patagonia, photo, Shopping, snow, submissive, travel 9 CommentsYes, dievca knows that there was snow in January and February 2018 – but there was snow already on the ground from 2017….
This is the first snow of Autumn.
It’s now become a wet rain/sleet mix – a mess. Walking to work and home entails carrying items in the mess and dievca isn’t known for remembering umbrellas. Her suggestion for getting by is a water-resistant backpack. And the gold standard, by far, has been her Patagonia Black Hole 26L Pack.
she has two colors:
Paintbrush
Beryl Green
Let’s just say if you are going to give up space in a NYC apartment for a second water-resistant backpack…it better be good.
(Now, dievca understands the true space-saving way would be to have just one black water-resistant backpack – but the colored ones act as reflective colors on the bike or walking. Duality.)
