As an interactive feature, this anatomy of the perfect cheeseburger from the NY Times doesn’t really cut the mustard. It offers some rollover hot spots describing the attributes of a fantastic burger and some links to recipes for tarragon pickles and brioche buns. Other than that, it looks like the designers in the multimedia department were tired after building the massive Michael Jackson interactive timeline and had little energy left for this tasty snack of a graphic.

But who cares about the design? This graphic is simple, but in my opinion, so is the perfect cheeseburger. As a side dish, read the accompanying article and enjoy!

We spent Saturday with our friends Maia and Oriol in Sitges, a beach town about half an hour south of Barcelona. Sitges is known for delicious seafood, a salad of bitter greens with romesco sauce and anchovies called xató, and a large concentration of gay male sunbathers.

Bathing suits optional.

Here are the pictures Maia was able to take in between shots ruined (enhanced?) by a nude and shamelessly exhibitionist sexagenarian who tried to insert himself into the background at every opportunity.

Ivy and  Matt were married in the beautiful Brooklyn Botanic Gardens last week, and we were happy to be there to celebrate with them.
