Guilty TV Pleasures
On more than one occasion, I’ve found myself wasting an entire Saturday watching America’s Next Top Model on MTV. Monday, while working from home, I caught myself getting sucked into the second season of Project Runway. I’ve found myself watching Top Chef, Shear Genius, and a few other reality TV shows. This really are my… Continue reading Guilty TV Pleasures
Balls Out
I have news for the young people of East Boston. Trenton Street is just that, a street. It’s not a drag strip, and it’s certainly not a race track. It’s a street. You know, a street… where we have kids and dogs. This is not a place for you to come flying down the street… Continue reading Balls Out
Departure
I’m on a runway at LaGuardia waiting to go home. We are about number ten to take off. Captain says fifteen to twenty minutes. Oh, how I love flying through New York when its about to storm. This is a moblog entry.

It would have been a great moment for United,… Continue reading Bringing Back the Friendly Skies

Shower Curtain
My friend Joy took a picture of her new hair cut/color and I fell in love with the background. She has a shower curtain that’s the New York City subway map. I must have one of these. I’m going to be in NYC twice over the next two weeks. Maybe I’ll see what I can… Continue reading Shower Curtain
Potato Salad
My friend Liz makes the most amazing potato salad. She says it’s just potatoes, mayonnaise, and cilantro. I have a feeling there may be more to it than that, and I’ve been trying to make that recipe my own for a while. I start with about 2/3 cup of mayo, a couple of tablespoons of… Continue reading Potato Salad
