I spent a long weekend in New York City from 24 - 26 October, 2009. When we first arrived, there were strong thunderstorms, so since it was later in the afternoon, we just stayed in our hotel (Hilton Newark Penn Station) and regrouped for the next day, unwinding with a delicious Jack Daniels.
The next day we started out early and rode New Jersey Transit into Manhattan and took the subway up to Zabar's. In the cafe, we noshed on a breakfast special that included orange juice, some of their awesome coffee and a bagel with chive cream cheese and lox. We also shared a black-and-white cookie. At the communal table, we chatted with a cool family down from Boston for a bar mitzvah.
Afterwards we walked through the store and marveled at the huge, fresh selections of - everything! Olives, cheese, meats, seafood, bread, coffee, sweets. It was a great visit.
We made our way downtown via subway, stopping briefly at Dean & Deluca for a respite. I bought a few small items and we shared an incredible doughnut from the Doughnut Plant --- a square pastry filled with homemade strawberry jam and frosted with a peanut butter icing.
From there we took a cab to Chelsea Market and spent some time there exploring all the wonderful gourmet stores - cupcakes and other sweets, artisan meats, fresh-baked bread, farm fresh dairy, green produce and more. We ducked into The Green Table to sample a few local beers on tap.
Afterwards, we took another cab to the New Amsterdam Market, a monthly set-up at the Fulton Fish Market at the South Street Seaport. It was incredible, and we indulged on freshly-shucked oysters and sampled all sorts of cheese and other goodies. We met some great people and enjoyed the festive atmosphere of all the folks relishing in local foods and foodways.
From this market, we caught a cab to Little Italy and went to Lombardi's, which says they are the first pizzeria in America; the pizza oven is dated 1905. We had a classic pizza margarita and it was delish - the crust, sauce and toppings of mozzerella and basil chiffonade was perfect. A couple more local beers washed it all down.
Capping off the evening, we popped in Pinkberry for a sweet-tart frozen yogurt treat. We then hopped in a cab back to New York Penn Station for the train trip back to New Jersey.
The next day we had breakfast in the hotel before returning to Manhattan for an appearance on the Living Today show on the Martha Stewart Living Radio network on Sirius Satellite Radio. I was on with host Mario Bosquez to discuss my book, "Popcorn" and to talk about popcorn treats for Halloween. The studio is on the 36th floor of a skyscraper in Rockefeller Center, so we walked around a little before the show and shared a hot pretzel from a street vendor and spied other offerings, including roasted chestnuts.
After the show, she split a delish hot dog dressed simply with some brown mustard before heading back to the train station then back to New Jersey and our parked car and drove home.

Edited from the Victoria County History:
The parish church of St Edmund, Abbess Roding, consists of nave, chancel, west tower, north vestry, and south porch. The walls are of flint rubble, roughly coursed except where they have been restored, and the original dressings are of clunch. The plan indicates a 12th century origin and the dedication suggests that there was a church here before the Norman Conquest. The nave was probably rebuilt in the 14th century and the chancel in the 14th and 15th. The tower and porch were rebuilt in 1866-8 and the vestry was probably added before the end of the 19th century. The most interesting features of the church are the oak screen and the stained glass, both of the 15th century.

The position of the north and south doorways suggests that the nave was originally built in the 12th century. The font is of the late 12th century and is similar in type to others in the area. The square bowl, which is bound with iron, has vine ornament carved on two sides and conventionalized flowers on another. On the fourth side appear the disk, crescent, whorl, and stars which are characteristic of these fonts. The stem is circular and has small angle shafts. The nave was probably rebuilt in the 14th century. There are two pointed windows with tracery of this date. The doorways are also 14th-century in style but the south doorway has been completely rebuilt. West of the doorways are single-light windows which are either modern or very thoroughly restored. A 14th-century piscina in the south wall has an ogee head on a square drain.
The chancel arch, much restored, is of two moulded orders. The windows on the north side of the chancel have tracery of the 14th century, but the later rebuilding of the rear arches has blocked the spandrels. There is much 15th-century work in the chancel. The two south windows have moulded jambs and fourcentred heads. The east window, entirely rebuilt in the 19th century, has tracery in the style of the 15th century and may replace a similar window of that date. The late 15th-century south doorway has a fourcentred head with carved spandrels and a square label externally. The stonework has been partly renewed.
The chancel roof has two tie-beams and a deep moulded and embattled wall-plate. Below the east tie-beam are moulded wall-posts and arched braces springing from modern corbel brackets. The nave roof, of similar date, has two tie-beams with traceried spandrels between the arched braces and the moulded wall-posts. At the west end are indications of the former bell turret, 'a little wooden turret with a spire'. This is shown in an engraving of 1797. In the same picture appears a large timber-framed south porch, also probably of the 15th century, having seven pointed lights along the sides. The turret and porch were both rebuilt in 1867 but there is still a 15th-century stoup outside the south door.
The fine oak screen is of the late 15th century. It has evidently been brought from elsewhere and cut to fit the present chancel arch. There are three full bays, one of which forms the entrance to the chancel, and an extra half bay at the south end. The upper panels have four-centred heads and are filled with elaborately cusped perpendicular tracery. The principal mullions are carved with buttresses and crocketed finials. The rail is enriched with a running vine ornament and the lower panels have tracery carving. The cresting is modern.
In one of the 15th-century chancel windows is some painted glass of the same period. It includes tabernacle work and two figures, one being a bishop in mass vestments and the other a woman, probably St. Margaret. Above the pulpit is a fine early-18th-century sounding board with an inlaid soffit and an enriched cornice. It is supported on a fluted Doric pilaster in the angle between the south and east walls of the nave.
The octagonal oak pulpit may be partly of the same date, altered later. The wrought-iron hour-glass stand near the pulpit is probably also of the 18th century. In 1866-7 the church was restored and refitted at the expense of Capel Cure of Blake Hall. The work included the rebuilding of the tower and the south porch. The present tower is of flint rubble with freestone dressings and is of three stages surmounted by a castellated parapet. Its style is mainly of the 14th century. The south porch is of timber. At the same time the east wall of the chancel was completely rebuilt, there were repairs to windows and roofs, the nave was repaved and new seats and new stained glass were installed. The total cost of the restoration was about £2,000.
The carved oak reredos, which has traceried panels and other enrichments, is the work of the late Miss Capel-Cure and was added in 1938. There are three bells. Two are probably of the 15th century, one being by John Walgrave. The third is by John Hodson, 1665.
On the north wall of the nave is a fine carved and painted wall tablet of alabaster and black marble. It is in memory of Sir Gamaliel Capell (1613) and has figures of himself and his wife kneeling at a prayer desk. Below, also kneeling, are six sons and three daughters. The monument was formerly in the chancel. On the opposite wall of the nave is a tablet in similar materials but of very unusual design. It commemorates Mildred (Capell) wife of Sir William Lucklyn (1633) and shows a lady looking out from a curtained recess, the curtains being held back by cherubs. Behind her, angels are descending to place a crown on her head. Above is a segmental pediment and an achievement of arms.
During the Middle Ages the advowson of the parish church of Abbess Roding was held by Barking Abbey.

Rode Hall, a Georgian country house, is the seat of the Wilbraham family, members of the landed gentry in the parish of Odd Rode, Cheshire, England. The estate, with the original timber-framed manor house, was purchased by the Wilbrahams from the ancient Rode family in 1669. The medieval manor house was replaced between 1700 and 1708 by a brick-built seven-bay building; a second building, with five bays, was built in 1752; the two buildings being joined together in 1800 to form the present Rode Hall.
The house is Grade II* listed, and is surrounded by parkland and formal gardens, which are included as Grade II on the National Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. On the site are a grotto, an ice house, and an ornamental obelisk, all Grade II listed structures. Rode Hall is still owned and occupied by the Wilbrahams, currently by the 8th Baronet, Sir Richard Baker Wilbraham, and his wife, Lady Anne Baker Wilbraham. The hall and gardens are open to the public from April to September.

Then came the churches, then came the schools
Then came the lawyers, then came the rules
Then came the trains and the trucks with their loads
And the dirty old track was the Tellisford Rode

St Mary, Aythorpe Roding, Essex
A new entry on the Essex Churches site.
It was May 2014, the most beautiful spring of the century. I had taken my bike on the train from Ipswich to Bishops Stortford before heading off away from the hell of Stansted airport into the wilds of Essex. Now I veered eastwards from the forest, entering the emptiest and most remote area of the county. No villages for miles, just hamlets, fields and the occasional farmstead. The road to my next target would have meant a five mile ride, but I spotted a half-mile bridleway, of which there are lots in this part of Essex. It would cut three miles off the journey, so I took it. It was a farm track, deeply rutted, and it took me down the side of a barley field to copses in the distance, the hysterical yellow of acres of rapeseed in full flower beyond.
At first, it was just about cycleable, but then it wasn't, so I pushed my bike for about ten minutes or so. As I approached the country lane at the far end of it I thought there seemed something vaguely familiar about it, and then I realised what it was. Ah, I thought to myself, I'm entering East Anglia again. Now I was on hedged lanes through rolling fields of barley and rapeseed. Profound green, intense yellow. The road climbed, and over the rise I saw a spire. I headed down a track for half a mile or so and came to one of the most remote churches in all Essex.
It was locked, there was no keyholder notice. An inexpressibly lonely place. The church itself is a poor little thing, its wooden spire shot through with woodpecker holes. There were no notices of service in the porch, and so I expect it has fallen into disuse. Redundancy beckons, and perhaps it will be left to go quietly back to nature. It might just as well be left open, in which case it would at least serve some purpose to passing walkers, pilgrims and strangers.
And yet there was something very special about just standing in the churchyard, in the silence. It felt like nothing had happened here for a very long time. I looked down at the inscription on a memorial cross to Our Dear Son, Bertie George Emberson, who died at the Military Hospital, Caterham, Surrey, September 7th 1918 aged 19 years. How awful. And yet, I thought, the churchyard they stood in to watch him put into the earth has not changed. The one they knew is the one there now.

Rode Videomic default bands suck
Try women's hair elastics instead
The default ones than come with the Rode Videomic to suspend the mic like a "shock mount" on the base. For the longest time I thought the grinding/rubbing noise in my videos were coming from me just handling my camera poorly, or perhaps something on my shoulder brace is rubbing... but then after spending a good 15 minutes tapping, testing, trialing various positions, i narrowed in on these bands. I tried doubling it up and making it firmer. The noise reduced but occasionally still had annoying low rumbling noise in my audio.
I ended up ripping them out and using Lucy's hair elastics. Triple wound it around the anchors. The mic still is able to bounce around to still function as a shock mount, whilst eliminating that intrusive rubbing noise from the audio.
After googling this, I found a few others had this issue and Rode issued free replacement bands. Apparently there was a bad batch of bands that were recalled.
Some people used cooking oil to get rid of the sound... naa, not a good solution for me. Lady's hair bands suffice.
