http://www.alfrescoallnatural.comI've had a bunch of broccoli rabe patiently waiting to receive some attention in my veggie drawer for maybe 2 weeks - tonight was finally its lucky night. I felt like making something a bit different from my usual Greens and Beans and took my inspiration from a package of chicken sausage I found in … Continue reading Greens and Beans Riff

Historic Albany Foundation Built Event
This is probably Lori Hansen's work. Let's hope she doesn't mind that I borrowed it. Saturday night I spent a little time pouring wine and beer at a terrific event at the NYS Museum. Now, you know I've been spending my Saturday nights (until recently) working, so this going-out-Saturday-thing is still pretty novel to … Continue reading Historic Albany Foundation Built Event

Most of the kids have never been in this part of the city before … Continue reading NYC – Just like I pictured it.

For the rest of you coffee dependent folks out there, just a reminder that my favorite coffee place, Porto Rico Importers in NYC is having one of their two big annual … Continue reading Coffee time

My oldest son watches way too much television. The only redemption from all this television viewing, in my opinion, is that he has learned some useful and cool information. From watching crime shows like CSI and NCIS, he learned the fact that there are bomb smelling dogs and drug smelling dogs and that the Labradors … Continue reading A-Mazed at the Metropolitan
