'll get. Living and eating in paradise, here are a few of my favorites: Taylor’s Refreshers - must haves: mini corn dogs with fries topped with chili cheese, ahi tuna burger, cobb salad (i know odd for a burger joint but...

I’ve only gone to Wegman’s once or twice. I wasn’t particularly taken with the place. (Though I do remember being pretty stunned when I discovered they devoted two whole aisles to dog food.) Can you enlighten me...

Five huh? Okay 1. Breakfast – Al’s Breakfast 2. Lunch – The Lagoon ($5 hot & spicy chicken, rice and egg roll) 3. Dinner (new american) - 112 Eatery 4. Dinner (not new american) - Babalu (for paella) 5. After dinner...

and the music is usually bad (only something like Brian Eno would work ). Hippies are ok, considering I’m misanthropic in general. I only like dogs and cats and my boyfriend.

would be welcome as well. Hot sauce should be on the table. 2. TV. There should be one. Sitting in a bar with some friends and watching baseball in the summer and football in the winter is one of life’s great pleasures. But...
