Did you miss not seeing a post on Monday? Sorry about that. I had some technical difficulties. (Of course, by “technical difficulties” I mean “had a nasty spill all over my laptop and was awaiting a new one. Fortunately had a Square Trade warranty to cover my stupidity.”) At any […]

Although I do eat a lot – probably more than I should, I am not usually a fan of “All You Can It”. I always lose in that scenario. At any rate, we had a buy one get one free (another Woman’s Club Restaurant Card deal) so we decided to […]
I have reviewed 2¢ moments after they opened, when we just had snacks, and again when we had brunch there. FKGuy was recently lamenting how we have not had the pain perdu in way too long. We will remedy that soon, I am sure. But this time we went for […]
