The Greenwich Village Literary Pub Crawl

I went to my very first pub crawl recently. The Greenwich Village Literary Pub Crawl takes place every Saturday and meanders throughout the streets once haunted by famous poets and authors. I got my ticket from Living Social Network so it was only $10, instead of the usual $20. I was really excited for this event because I love all things literary. Authors fascinate me and I love to learn about their lives and see where they lived and where they drank. This tour gave me lots of new information and I had a lot of fun drinking my way through the village as well.

Julie Powell at McNally Jackson

I went to hear Julie Powell read from her new memoir, Cleaving: A Story of Marriage, Meat, and Obsession, at one of my favorite indie bookstores, McNally Jackson. Julie Powell was shockingly down-to-earth for someone who wrote a bestselling memoir, Julie and Julia, and then had Amy Adams play her in the movie version of said memoir.

Where is the Poe Toaster?

Edgar Allan Poe was born on this day in 1809. Since 1949, a figure known as the Poe Toaster has left roses and cognac on the writer's gravestone in the early hours of January 19. This morning, however, the Poe Toaster broke that tradition of threescore years, disappointing the audience that gathered to witness the tribute.
 
This tradition began in the year of the one-century anniversary of Poe's death. Last year marked the two-century anniversary of Poe's birth.
