I've always loved Sundays - fat newspapers, leisurely breakfasts, a second cup of coffee... They're just relaxing. For the last couple of months, I've switched things up a bit, though, delaying my TU fix until a bit later in the morning to squeeze in a little yoga at the DelSo's own Yoga Loft. Although adding … Continue reading Sunday Mornings in the DelSo

All is Good in the Neighborhood!
The All Good Baker folks at The Wine and Dine for the Arts Festival2012 had begun on a very high note in the DelSo...we're going to become the new home for Albany's only farm to baker, All Good Bakers.

Occasionally, there's some noise made when someone hosts … Continue reading The Sound of Silence

I've celebrated quite … Continue reading An Albany evening
