That was a fun article.

A lot of her time was spent hiding in the bathroom and trying to steal kitchen shears to trade for her meals.

Cooking for the clan. Got my hands full. And, my 'little' cousin is getting married in a few weeks. Best friend of 35 years is in town. A lot for which to be thankful although it doesn't feel that way all the time these days.

Whenever I see Mallman cook I always wonder how many wildfires he started...

When does Foxface Chicken open up?

You and I seem to have the same doctor. 😉

A huge loss.

Sabrett's Natural Casing are my fave. Nathan's probably second. I have been on these pills for almost 20 years and I am finally making lifestyle changes that make me feel like I want to stop taking cholesterol, bp, beta blockers, triglyceride and other meds every day. There are genetic causes I battle, but a lot of it is idle, high stress life, smoking and diet.

20+ years of eating/tasting/sampling way too much barbecue and ancillary unhealthy ingredients and also smoking (3 packs a day. sometimes cigars and cigarettes at the same time....and other substances) and eating everything else I wasn't supposed to has finally caught up to me physically and emotionally. In this year, my goal is to cut down the number of pills that I rely on every day to keep me living. My doctor says that is what the pills are for, but my brain tells me I am tired of being reliant on pharma.

What brand of dogs? I have had a craving for days but trying to cut my salt after decades of my doctor yelling at me.

It is. Every time I listen to them I realize they have a lot more songs I like than I thought.

Mercifully they were gone for a brief moment. But obviously no review is complete unless people know how many stars it got.

PS this is pretty awesome!

He hasn't even been inaugurated and you are already standing in a crowded field with that.

Oh great. The stars are back. 🙄

One of the most expected and still disappointing reviews I have read recently. "Maybe it’s the lack of heat: La Boca is beautiful, and expensive, and charismatic, but it is also very bad." https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-food-scene/la-boca-is-all-smoke-no-fire

It's only Socialism. It hasn't blossomed yet.

Shows have to end early though if it's not the weekend, right?

I am not proud to admit that Jersey City may as well be Sudan for as likely as it is that I will dine there any time soon.....

My old label did most of our shows and parties at Brownies, and sometimes Under Acme, Mercury Lounge and Westbeth Music Center. At least Mercury Lounge is still there. Always a challenge where the bar was located and I woke up in the basement/green room too many times. For punk and garage, it had a wonderfully feral sonic quality. For folk and country, I am sure Lucinda's is better.

I really miss Brownies.

What kind of soil did you plant them in?
