More frozen lunches. It’s funny because last weekend I did some menu planning and have actually made 3 of the 5 things I planned out! I was hoping to have leftovers for work as some folks suggested as a frozen lunch alternative. Here’s the thing though – my husband – eats A LOT! Now – he’s a muscle-bound guy with crazy-low body fat (unlike his Mrs) but he has a huge appetite! I made a 2.5 pound roast and he ate 3/4 of it! So

Written by Bill Whiting The Heartless Bastards took the stage at the Madison Theater on Friday, February 17, and put on a stunning tour de force of garage rock anthems and cultivated, homegrown roots oriented compositions. Led by singer and guitarist Erika Wennerstrom, The Heartless Bastards launched the show with the opening track, “Marathon,” from their new album, Arrow, which has been released on Partisan Records. The project is a change of pace for The Bastards with highly refined song craft on tunes like “Low Low Low” and “The Arrow Killed the Beast,” all of which the

Most church fish fry events start the first Friday of Lent; some go through Good Friday, some the Friday before. And a few start on Ash Wednesday, another fasting day. (Here’s a list of of fish fries .) One fish dinner you’ll find today is at Bridgetown Finer Meats in Bridgetown. They’re a meat store primarily, but since they’re in the middle of a predominantly Catholic neighborhood, they get into the fish business for a few weeks a year. They set up a drive-through, cooking the beer-battered haddock outside behind the store. They’ll sell a thousand in a day–

“It’s comforting to know that even you eat a Big Boy from time to time.” Fine. So I have a reputation for eating, well, not at Frisch’s– not at hybrid quick service/fast casual restaurants in general. It’s okay– I’m aware of that reputation. That’s a choice I’ve actively made for several years, but recently I had the opportunity to chat with the Research and Development chef and the VP of Marketing for Frisch’s, and what can I say? My mind has been changed a bit. Full disclosure: my dear

When someone decides to run for office, the first thing I believe they should understand is that they are seeking a job to represent the people of jurisdiction that they live in. Running for office is not about getting a job. You don’t just move to a new city to become its mayor. Denise Driehaus does not understand this. She did the opposite and foolishly says it to CityBeat. To her it’s all about a number, not about the voters. Read what she said here: “The only way to define statehouse district is by its number
