I’m working on a story right now about Philadelphia’s mayor and the fact that everyone thinks he’s Satan incarnate.

(I know it’s hard, folks, but let’s broaden [...]

Got to say I'm somewhat surprised the FDA didn't red-lightBPA on Tuesday. I expected a more cautious approach given the National Toxicology gave it the thumbs down. And the study out of Britain showing a link between adult levels of BPA (in blood and urine) and heart disease and diabetes. Not that I think it's the worse thing since DDT. Do I think ...

Another Friday night in. Big thumbs up! I was tired and had a cake to finish!
First, off to Whole Foods for eats. Usually, we seek out Whole Foods in other areas. Why? Because the WF by our apartments is lame. The expression says it all. Poor selection. Poor service. Wilted lettuce. Veggies looked like they sat out all day ...

Today is day two.

Peeps have been around for years. I remember them in my Easter basket as a child, though I was never really a fan. I was all about jelly beans (no black ones, please) and all things sugary. I was not really interested in chocolate at that point in my life. Sure I would eat it [...]

Green thumb, dumb thumb

Okay, I give in. I don’t have a green thumb, I have a dumb thumb.
It’s taken me about fifteen years and a lot of Jimmy frowns, groans and exasperated sighs to accept this.
The latest stint came from a mad-overwhelming-urge to plant, plant and plant. We had just bought our house (our very first) and I didn’t want to miss out on the s ...
