Popsicle at Swirl


Orange Popsicles - summer is coming!

Six Minute Abs

In the movie There's Something About Mary, Ben Stiller's character is driving across the country with some psycho convinced that he can sell America on Seven Minute Abs. Stiller's character then contradicts the psycho with Six Minute Abs and the guy starts to lose it.

I was reminded of this scene by an industry colleague today who sent me a link to a news article about a New York City coffee shop/roastery selling the "$12 Cup of Coffee."

Needless to say, I was amused.

Woodberry More


Sarah and her "panini".

Back in Baltimore, back at Woodberry. Kate was supposed to have dinner that night with some older guy that's checking her out, Allie was working and Sarah wanted something to do, so we met up at Woodberry for a little snack and to gawk at Kate's date - they were a no show.


John The Butcher's Plate.

Thanks Sarah!
