3 on Thursday

As happy as I am to see my Dawgs secure the SEC East title this weekend, I was even happier to have a few more days of nice weather before the harsh New York winter makes its presence known. I can’t believe I forgot to share pics of my Halloween costume!  Though I usually throw…

Valentine Shmalentine 2012

Once again, I found myself single on Valentine’s Day.  Not a problem here!  Just like last year, I used the holiday as a reason to prepare myself a special meal.  Last year’s Valentine’s supper was so delicious I knew I had to step up my game, which means it was theme time.  I decided to…

Burger spot brgr opened their 2nd outpost this weekend, and it is conveniently located around…

It has been a week since my last post, but that is because it was Thanksgiving, and eating/intense family time trumps blogging.  Thanksgiving is one of the greatest holidays.  No gifts here; it’s all about the food.  And food is something my family does very well.  The Konters have been known to botch gifts on…
