Katie

Katinka (German for 'Katie') Henly is my roomie and partner in crime. She usually complains about my coffee making skills and I complain about the slow jazz music she sometimes plays on her ipod. Those are the extent of our roommate issues.

Katinky manages a hot Tribeca restaurant and gets to wear a dirndl to work once a year. Other than that she usually wears black dresses with gold jewels, delighting her roommate Sarah. (I will ALWAYS approve the black-and-gold combo. Always.) She knows a lot about German wine and even more about dodging the politics of a Mexican kitchen staff. Everyone south of Canal street adores Katie. Its a fact.

On her downtime, Katinkadink enjoys singing to Neko, watching Serena and Blair, and baking the best caramel cashew cookies you have ever tasted. She doesn't often wear pants in our apartment-- just a big yellow tshirt--and in the morning she looks like Reba Mcentire circa 1989. It's a good thing.
