NYC Health Department

Because the two dancers that were in the unit below us moved, the one bedroom in our building is now available if anyone is looking! It won’t last long. We also have some newcomers to our neighborhood of a different kind and it’s kind of a big deal. The NYC Health Department just moved into their new location in LIC and with the new location comes some very healthy regulations that I’m all for! No more food that is detrimental to your health will be sold or served, including but not limited to: doughnuts, cookies, cakes, drinks with more than 25 calories per serving, and fried food. Muffins will be cut in half and bagels quartered… no mention of cream cheese. Ha. It’s funny, but actually all true. If you want to kill yourself by eating crap then fine, but your employer shouldn’t be helping you do it.

Another way to stay fit is through exercise (duh). Maybe, now that the NYCHD is in our ‘hood, I should let them know that there’s no gym (only the private ones in the high-rises) on our Downtown side of LIC. There is a cycling studio just a few blocks away opening soon (pic), but a full gym close to home would be better.

I have mixed feelings about owning a Vespa, but think they look great. I’m a sucker for any kind of European styling. This one has been hanging out on our corner a lot lately. The owners must love LIC Bar… drunk driving?
