Seems like a long time since I've done a Sunday dinner post. Last week's dilemma was my indecision about whether I should run or eat. Because I sometimes have an issue with making choices, I went with all three. "Three?" you say, "Weren't there only 2 options?" Perhaps to those who think in a much … Continue reading Sunday dinner

The Van Dyck
Last night, I met a couple of friends in Schenectady at The Van Dyck for beers and a bite to eat.

Food Porn – California style
Traveling with an almost-twelve-year-old has many advantages when it comes to dining, or should I say, eating. For instance, breakfast is really easy - bagels for him and yogurt, fruit and granola for me. Simple, easy to find and substantial enough to hold us over until later in the day. Another great thing about traveling … Continue reading Food Porn – California style
