SUGAR + MEOWS

Inspiration and Delight

The mood board of my life. I like cats, science, art, ephemera, classic Hollywood, fashion, mysticism, oddities, and my home of New York City.

Edward Gorey’s illustrations for Rhoda Levine’s Three Ladies Beside the Sea

The lovely and wonderful Rhoda will be giving a reading of her two Edward Gorey-illustrated books tomorrow (March 10) at 3pm at New York City’s Strand Books. Details here.
Rhoda was especially wonderful to her neighbors (myself included) in the aftermath of hurricane Sandy. We spent many an evening drinking vodka in candlelight, and just talking, talking, talking. If you’re in New York, please support this wonderful lady.
And if you do end up going, drop me a line first!
