You asked...



*If you asked two, I only did one.

cheshire23 asked: Top 5 awesome NYC locations that "nobody's heard of"

I had trouble with this one, because I don't really think I go to much that no one has heard of. At least, locals have heard of it all even if tourists haven't. I'm not one of those people who puts a premium on best-kept secrets, and I wouldn't know if the places I go to are well-known or not. So let me just do my "top 5 places to take tourists that they've probably never heard of"

1) Burp Castle for beer
2) Rickshaw for chocolate soup dumplings
3) Holey Cream for ice cream donut sandwiches
4) Fish's Eddy to look at the pretty glass
5) Ronnybrook Milk Bar for ice cream

I loved Camilla! Does she count if she's only a rubber chicken though?

[writingmoments.livejournal.com]

Thanks for listing these:) I loved the Bobbsey twins too:) and Sleeping Beauty (though why are kid movies so unrealistic?!)

3) Any scene with CKM in Daughters of the Goddess

Weirdest = best, right?

Ice cream donut sandwiches?? DUDE. Do want!

I have Momo at home and you're the second person this week to mention it as a favourite. I might have to get my mother to send it over to me at this rate! I bought it simply because I adore The Neverending Story and hey, same author!

I keep meaning to go back and read some Bobbsey Twins since I never did.

Also, I had no idea The Prestige was a novel. I loved that film! Must read!

I love how much Momo pops up on this. You made me a Momo Believer!

Also Curr's brain was not that weird... okay it kind of was. Still proud to be in top 5 even if it because my character is freaky.

LOVE LOVE LOVE CLUELESS. Like for real. It is my number one cure-for-depression movie.

Adore the Love Actually soundtrack and love love Walter Bishop. Plus, now I want to watch The Prestige!

Long live Shark Attack Guy!

Also, I freakin' love House of Leaves. Apparently, I'm the only one in my area who does because I chose it for work's book club one month and no one showed up =\
