Weekend Warriors

It’s Monday, and we’ve all made it back from the wild weekend in relatively good shape!  A quick recap in pictures:

It rained. BUT, the guys braved the elements and finished (mostly) the 100 mile ride.

 The weather was perfect, and a great time (and a personal record!) was had by all.

Pre show grilled oysters and champagne, then right up front to see the Flaming Lips and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.  Success!

Spring Refresh!

Notice anything different about this blog?  Of course you do!  We’ve created a whole new look for this year, which is clean, easy to read, and just flat out adorable- if I do say so myself.  Hope you think so too!  Moving right along, let’s take a look at what else we’ve been up to.  This weekend, various members of the Miz Mooz team will be performing the following grand feats of endurance:

 

The Gran Fondo Bike Race

So, if this video showed the laymen and not just the super stars, you’d probably find us loitering by the refreshment table, walking our bikes up hills, and wondering why the heck did we sign up for this torture!?!  It was mostly about the spandex outfits.

The Brooklyn Half Marathon

For the second year, Miz Mooz will be represented in the Brooklyn Half Marathon!  Of course, the best part will be after crossing the finish line in Coney Island, and enjoying a celebratory Nathan’s hot dog.

The Great Googa Mooga

A mini food festival, heavy on entertainment, this requires another power of endurance.  Namely, the ability to eat lots and lots of delicious food, while navigating looong lines and dodging hipsters.  Also, it’s free!  The tunes are going to be just as rockin as the food, we’re especially stoked to see The Flaming Lips and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

So, there you have it!  Expect a full report (including pics of the spandex clad bikers) next week, and tell us what you’re up to these days!

The Vegas Diaries

A little recap of our February trip to Las Vegas for market, in which we venture off the Strip in search of civilization.  Featuring Annie as “The Shoe Model” and introducing Melissa, as “Melissa”.

First stop, Neon Museum!  Neon is second only to glitter on my list of favorite kitsch, and this place is incredible.  It’s more neon sign graveyard than museum in the traditional sense, with a collection of rescued signs dating as far back as the 1930s. Behold:

This place is just screaming for a look book photo shoot, amirite?!!

Then we went to a show, which was not technically off the Strip, (but still something brand new, and I make the rules here so it counts). LE REVE.  Woah.  Prancing showgirls this was not.  I couldn’t find a good clip to embed, so you’ll have to look at these pictures and imagine the following: water, fire, flying, acrobats, swimmers, divers, dancers, and clowns.

We were so exhausted after just watching the show, we went back to our rooms and ordered room service dinner at 11pm which we ate in bed.

For our last meal of the trip, we ventured to the legendary Lotus of Siam.  Tucked away in a strip mall on a quiet (read: desolate and scary as all get out) stretch of road, this place has been lauded by those in the know as the Best. Thai. Ever. Needless to say, I was excited.  The verdict: It was good, but certainly not the trancendent experience my tastebuds were ready for.  A case of unreasonable expectations?  Perhaps.  I guess we’ll never know.  Now, for the pics

So, another successful trip down, see you in August Vegas!

Oh, also, we sold some shoes
