Thanksgiving part-1
We got the pre-game going on Wednesday night, of course. Reagan had already received a huge order from Fresh Direct, and stopped by Gristedes on the way home. But of course, that did not preclude me having to rush back out to the bodega, as soon as I walked in the door from work. So,…

Fried Cheese Melt
In June, I saw this crazy thing called a burgermelt (a Friendly’s invention, consisting of a burger between two grilled cheese sandwiches) on the internet, and asked Reagan to make it for me. She totally did it. So, last weekend, when I saw this thing called a Fried Cheese Melt, which is apparently a new…

Burrito Envy
I mean, look at this thing: I have complained about New York City’s lack of authentic Mexican food, on more than one occasion. Several kind people have made suggestions of restaurants to try. The suggestions usually did end up leading to some pretty good food. But, I think that maybe after seeing the photo above…

Happy Valentines Day!
I had a really fun day hanging out with my valentines. Reagan and I work up early, because she has been building pork barbacoa for the last day and a half. She has been making the stuff in the slow cooker, for some burritos tonight. It smells totally delicious. Before heading to Westchester, we took…

Merry Christmas
Last night, Reagan and I went to a church on the east side to watch a live nativity with some of our friends. Afterward, we ate at this Brazilian place called Zebu, on 92nd and 2nd. It was pretty awesome food. I woke up bright and early this morning with an excited little wife tugging…

More Christmas Festivities
Last night we attended a party thrown by our friends Kim and Ryan, in Harlem. It was a lot of fun, because they went ALL OUT. The indoor decorations are well documented over on Kim’s blog, if you want to get a sense of what I’m talking about. But it didn’t stop there. They had…

Party at the Roc
We have already had a pretty busy week, this week. I worked late yesterday, but still managed to fit in a winter line launch party for Flud Watches. Then Tuesday night, Reagan and I attended a (work related) holiday party at Rockefeller Center. It was at one of the restaurants that is adjacent to the…

Weekend Generally
Reagan’s friend from high school, Lacy, and her husband, Alex, were in town this weekend for work. So we were able to hang out with them pretty much the whole time that we weren’t in CT. It was fun to see them. Last time I saw Lacy she was pregnant with their little guy, Noah.…

Conference Weekend
I titled this post “Conference Weekend,” because it is the weekend that our church, instead of having local meetings, just has one mega-meeting, that everyone watches on TV/Webcast Billy Graham-style. Okay, not really Billy Graham-style, at all. Lucky for us, everything comes out in print, in a few weeks. Because we missed most of it.…

Labor Day Weekend Re-cap
We had a pretty eventful holiday weekend. Reagan’s sister Jody and her friend Chrissy came to visit Piper (and us). During our activities, we went to the flea market (above), saw the last showing of “9-5” on Broadway, and had some really great visits with Piper. ^–Throwing back some grub at Shake Shack ^—Reagan and…
