Did I mention that I'm contributing to one of the Times Union's blogs? You know, I had an extra waking moment or two and I needed something to do with my time.

Best friggin’ whipped cream – ever

Of all the Tulip Fest weekend events, this one is my favorite. Tulips, champagne, food, smartly dressed people...what's not to like?
