bard college: Proud Mama - 05/29/10 11:46 PM
Okay so I am a proud mama.  A week ago my son Jonathan graduated from Bard College with a major in mathematics.
Because of the existing economic climate this crop of college graduates could be facing a tough time however I suspect this could be a character building period.  A time when things are not just handed to you, and more decision making will go into the choices made.
So congratulations and best wishes to all you 2010 graduates and best wishes with finding a job.
And Jonathan one last instruction put that math degree to good use!
Spoken like a proud … (38 comments)

bard college: If this tree did it, so can you! - 07/22/08 09:55 AM
I love to take a walk now and then on the grounds of Bard college.  One of my favorite spots is the manicured lawn and gardens of the Levy Economic Institute.  Blithewood was another lovely Hudson Valley Mansion with great views of the Hudson River and Catskill Mountains.

This post however is not about this ideal setting, but rather about a tree that seems so out of place but you can't help but love it.

This was the home of Janet Livingston Montgomery a member of one of the largest land owning families of the time.  Alexander Jackson Davis a well known architect of the time was responsible for the design.

bard college: Taste Budds a Red Hook Gem - 12/26/07 07:55 PM

Taste Budds a chocolate and coffee cafe was opened in the village of Red Hook by Dan Budd.  The first time I saw Chef Budd was at a wine tasting event where he gave an awesome baking demonstration.
This is no ordinary coffee house, here you can get all types of coffee and espresso drinks, sandwiches and most of all, all kinds of chocolate desserts - and now fresh fudge.  Because Chef Budd is a trained chef from the Culinary Institute of America, once you have had his desserts you will come back for more.
The atmosphere is welcoming so it is not unusual for people to … (11 comments)
