I am loving the Oxford Lace-Up bootie from Christian Louboutin called 'Mamimo.'  They are available in nude and black colors and retail for $965 at Bergdorf Goodman.  What a divine design with a sheer mesh look and rocking tassel detail.

Did you know that world's official oldest subway tunnel is located right here in New York in the borough of Brooklyn?  Yes, indeed!  It's the Atlantic Avenue Tunnel, built in 1844.  This is fascinating!

What's even more amazing is that one can take a tour of this tunnel.  Once a month (usually on a Sunday), via The Brooklyn Historic Railway Association, hour and half tours are conducted and narrated by Bob Diamond who actually re-discovered the tunnel in 1980.  Way to go Bob!

Adults pay $15 while children pay $10.  It is for a good cause, especially since The Brooklyn Historic Railway Association is a non-profit organization.

Be forewarned, to enter the tunnel, one must climb down a manhole located in the middle of the street.  I actually think that's a bit adventurous!

The next tour takes place on May 16, 2010.  To register and find out about future tours, see images of previous tours and to discover fun facts about the history of Brooklyn's great railway system go to: http://www.brooklynrail.net/bhra_events.html

I am sure that most people are familiar with what Pocky sticks are by now, but for those who are not, they are these Japanese biscuit like snacks (made by Japanese food company Glico) that come in the form of long sticks.  They are delicious and can be found in flavors such as chocolate, almond and strawberry as well as an array of other interesting flavors (i.e. melon, coffee, banana, etc.).

One can normally find Pocky sticks in Asian supermarkets or specialty food shops that carry international foods and in some stores such as Target and Wal-Mart.  One just has to keep an eye out for them.

I am currently totally feeling the Coconut Pocky sticks I've discovered.  I had no clue there was a coconut flavor!  They are soooo good!  The biscuit stick is covered in chocolate, and then covered in bits of coconut.  How yum is that?  Very yum!  These are a must try.

A box usually contains 14 sticks and retails anywhere from $1.99-$3.99 depending on where you buy it.  To give you an idea of what a box looks like, here is a scan.  Yes, I scanned my Pocky sticks just to share this foodie goodness with you my readers.

Enjoy!
