BEER AND ICE CREAM

Beer and ice cream, that sums up my life these days.  So I start with a story containing more details about the beer garden coming shortly to LIC via John Brown Smokehouse.  Then I follow it up with a story about Malu, our local ice cream shop on Jackson Avenue that makes their own ice cream.  It’s absolutely delicious and the store is exactly what every neighborhood strives for, and we here in LIC actually get!

Next up we get to real estate, which as frequently is the case dominates the LIC news, not to mention our lives.  Then comes an excellent recap/review of PS1’s Warm-Up last week, which acts as a reminder that it is going on again this Saturday, and every Saturday in the summer.  Then comes two other cultural events happening in the ‘hood this weekend.  That should be plenty of things to do and see, as we await JB…
