Spread love, it's the Brooklyn way.

As much as having a child has made me yearn for suburban living, I have to admit my neighborhood is pretty great.

I came out of the subway station in the last photo 10 years ago- and said, Yup.  This is it.  This is my hood.  I had no idea that the bar across the street would be the place where I would end up working and meeting all my new friends(family).  Or that I would meet the man I would love, who would be responsible for half of the DNA of my beautiful child- a block away from that subway station- 5 years later.  I guess there is something to be said about gut instincts.

You always know when you're home.
