Camels and Pie
Some Ways to Have Fun in Yorkville (without blowing $700 dollars on an ugly pair of designer jeans):
1. Gawk at the women with the same hair and facial expressions as their dogs.
2. Wanda’s Pie in the Sky (peach praline is the best).
3. The Thomas Kinkade Gallery is highly mockable, and you can play with the dimmer switches.
4. Handmade strawberry marshmallows from Whole Foods.
5. Play with the train set at the Toy Store at Bay and Yorkville.
I’m just sorry I missed this party. I love camels!

You know, i’ve spent some time with my friends making fun of the kincade stuff before. There’s just something about his work that makes me think of a sugar overdose.
Oh, no kidding. Several of his paintings look like scenic art from those King’s Quest-esque computer adventure games.
Susan Orlean has written and fabulous profile on Kinkade for The New Yorker. It’s in her most recent collection of writing (Homewrecker). Very funny.
