I’m So Not a Football Fan

It’s A Bird, It’s a Frog, It’s . . .
Every day on my way to work I pass a billboard on the side of a phone booth for the movie version of Underdog. What this means is that the theme song (which I absolutely love) is stuck in my head for at least an hour — or until Hold the Line pops back into

Questions of the Day
1) How is it possible that Grey’s Anatomy can make me flat out bawl uncontrollably, even when there’s no PMS involved?2) Who left a white, square ceramic plate with my doorman this morning? Any insight out there in cyber-ville is most welcome.

Catching Up Again
Time to catch up, but first of all, if you haven’t said hello yet, please do — I’m truly enjoying everyone’s comments! Let’s see. Last week I went to a press party at Xing and it was like food blogger central — Augie came with me and I met Ben from Eater, the guys from
