It's times like this that make me understand the appeal of going to the theater to see a movie. Or three. I don't often get to the movies for a film that is anything other than rated PG, but during my winter holidays, I found my way to the Spectrum three times for grown up … Continue reading Running to hide in the dark

Don’t cook tonight!
How about eating for a good cause instead? New World Bistro & Bar is generously donating 15% of tonight's sales to the DelSo's very own Normanskill Farm. Why not save that bunch of kale and box of Annie's for another night and instead head to NWBB for something a bit more interesting? The Normanskill Farm … Continue reading Don’t cook tonight!

Friday night I ate al fresco at The Cheese Traveler, devouring my burger and merely indicating yes or no with the motion of my head. So good! Saturday, following a run, I ate at Mingle's bar very much … Continue reading Labor Day – sunshine and duck butts
The pretension of DelSo
I've been doing this DelSo thing for close to 5 years and have been called a couple of things. I think interesting is my favorite. Over at Tablehopping I, along with my neighbors, I suppose, recently earned the title "pretentious." Here - read it for yourself. What do you think?
