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, … Continue reading Thanksgiving part-1→
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 … Continue reading Fried Cheese Melt→
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 … Continue reading Burrito Envy→

Is that bad? I guess it must be, since I start to get dehydrated. I have tried … Continue reading Why give up DC?→
Reagan and I had a blast in RI. I mean, we always do, when we visit the Truscotts. So, it’s not exactly breaking news. We arrived in Newport on Thursday night, in time for 2 full days of playing in the pool croquet, barbeque, etc.. Mucho mas fotos here. On the way home, we stopped … Continue reading Independence Day Weekend 2009→
This month, I came across a kind of cool article in Details. It was published in the “Know and Tell” section, and titled “Prescription-free Antidepressants.” According to the piece, consuming nuts (one of my favorite foods) and fish supposedly help fight stress, etc.. So what better way to fight depression that doubling up a peanut-avocado … Continue reading Natural Mood Lifters→
Saturday, we had lunch in midtown west, at BRGR. The venue is cool. The food was good. The value was not so great. For $9 I want a burger that is at least a pound. The sweet potato fries were also cut a little thin for my liking. We had fun though. Afterward, we met … Continue reading Weekend Food→
