August 17th, 2008 1 Comment
I love crab. Crab cakes, she-crab soup, deviled crab, cajun crab dip; what’s not to love? All this crab love but I’ve never been to an authentic Maryland crab feast. I finally got my chance last weekend when Sandy’s cousin got married in Cambridge, Md.

By the end of our trip Sandy and I were ready to quit our jobs, rent a closet-sized apartment, and make the NYC experience a permanent one. It is just an intoxicating place. The food, the shopping, the sites, the people… something is always happening and that something is never boring. NYC [...]

While shopping in Publix I couldn’t help but notice the prevalence of their “GreenWise” line of products. What is GreenWise? Here it is directly from the Publix website:
With the rising awareness of health issues, such as obesity in America, we understand that many people are looking for healthier food choices. That’s why Publix [...]

West Egg Cafe

The weather has been gorgeous recently here in Atlanta but unfortunately I’ve been stuck at school or hold up in my room doing work. Things worked out this past Thursday though and I was able to go out to lunch with the lady. We decided to head to an old favorite that neither [...]

Watershed fried chicken
November 2nd, 2006 1 Comment
Sometime back my roommate Katie informed me of a wonderful joint in Decatur that was known for their fried chicken which is a regular Tuesday special. In fact, it is so well known that they usually run out! They don’t start serving it until 5:30pm and they recommend you come early. Since [...]
