jheath replied to your photoset: It’s a good thing we are the Jews with 8 nights of… Sooooooo is that a Hanukkah tree? Hahahahahah we joke that it is. But a “bush,” why a bush, no idea but that’s the traditional joke. But, quality one either way — from Ted Drewes. Go big or go home.  In reality, it’s actually Christmas tree and we are just (weird) Jews that...

I’ve been reading this food blog for years. It also mixes in writing and travel. It’s by far one of my faves and what I’d strive to do. The author, Molly, is also a regular contributed to Bon Appitet and her husband had the bright idea of opening a restaurant, which they do together when she’d not writing books. This is basically my ideal life. Or, that of one after a...

It’s the 8th and we’re still down by two. Miami has thrown 10 years, ~$200mil and no no-trade clause at Albert. Hard to walk away from except for the trade clause. He doesn’t want to play for five teams. He wants one. The cardinals. And, it’s time for David Freese to step up and tie the game already. Except he doesn’t have that control. Let’s get an offer on...
