I was renting a house upstate around Ashokan Reservoir and stumbled on this almond butter at a local grocery store. It’s nothing but almonds! The branding is terrible but it’s the best almond butter I’ve ever had. It’s not too creamy or thick, filled with fine chunks of fresh almonds. When I returned home it was hard to find, so I ordered a case online. If you’ve never tried a dollop of almond butter on a spoon and with a single green grape – I’ll see you on the other side.

The only nut butter! Hit of sweetness, crunch for texture and a hearty mouthfeel, and saltiness to balance everything out to make it pop. This emoji is how I look when I eat it.

The selection of nuts on nuts.com is nuts, but so is the abundance of items that are not nuts. My orders always include a jar of their creamy-but-still-a-little-crunchy almond butter, but I also like to stock up on baking supplies like flaky sea salt, dark chocolate disks and 5-pound bags of sugar. As an apostle of nuts.com, I’ve also helped numerous friends and strangers see the light. My boyfriend’s pantry is perpetually packed with their roasted edamame, dried mango and cheddar popcorn, and I always spot colorful bags of malted milk balls and chocolate covered espresso beans when I visit my parents’ apartment. And while Courtney might be the only person who orders their crunchy marshmallow bits regularly, you’ve gotta respect nuts.com for even having them in stock.

Brian is one of the hardest working street film photographers in New York City. I love his ability to curate photo carousels with linear narrative themes. He captures authentic moments that happened just behind you. His work is a reminder that New York is alive and odd in all the right places when you aren’t looking. Sometimes when he leaves the Fantasy office in Williamsburg, he walks to Harlem just to take pictures along the way. I’ve seen some of his unreleased projects and you’ll be doing yourself a favor if you follow along too.

Sheepshead Bay is known for its terrible fishing boats, Russian espresso, money laundering and of course Randazzo’s - A 90 Year old Family Seafood institution that offers a uniquely inelegant dining experience. The walls are lined floor to ceiling with fishing relics, family portraits, gifts from regulars and Sheepshead Bay ephemera. If it came from the sea, it’s on the menu. The wait staff is made up of Sheepshead locals that aren’t there for small talk. They serve you a tiny plastic cup with your Corona and yell orders across the room to each other. Great for people watching and a great stop on your bike ride to the Rockaways. Stay away from the Scungilli and order the “Calamah”.

I’ve been following Juan Wuaters (The Beets) solo efforts for a few years now, and he continues to stay in rotation. His new album Real Life Situations (Captured Tracks) explores multiple genres and was made during isolation in 2020 quarantine. Favorites are “Locura” and “Presentation”.
