Eater reminded me that there is a TON of new foodie stuff opening soon downtown, and my immediate favorite would definitely be Wing Bucket less than a block from my front door. It’s hard not to get excited about the availability of wings until 4am, but the take away beer/wine sales until 2am will fill a very important untapped (pun!) market…
I feel like someday I will be paying for therapy to overcome this blog’s abandonment issues.
Now that I’ve lost all of my regular viewers for lack of updates, I’ve decided to revive this thing.
Stay tuned.
I’m not drinking any less…
I’m just drinking crappier beer.
This is probably the most simple and easy to understand explanation I’ve heard of the credit crisis we’re all going through. So now we know about the problem, how the FUCK do we FIX IT?

It has been a while since I’ve posted… sorry. Lots of strange and borderline exciting things have been happening (OMG House is back on!!) and as a result blogging hasn’t exactly been at the top of my list of things to do.
Still, most of you don’t give a shit about that, so here’s some food.

A Modern Take on Frugalism for a Modern Economic Crisis
Serves: 4
Prep. Time: 10 Minutes, Cooking Time: 15 Minutes, Total Time: 25 Minutes
Ingredients:
2 (14.5 oz) cans Italian-style diced tomatoes or Del Monte Stewed Tomatoes, Italian
1 (15 oz) can Bush’s black beans, rinsed and drained
10 ounces fresh spinach, washed and chopped
8 ounces Barilla penne pasta, cooked
1/2 cup Athenos reduced-fat crumbled feta cheese (we substituted Mozzarella because of C’s aversion to icky Goats)
Directions:
Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Meanwhile, combine tomatoes and beans in a large non-stick skillet. Bring to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes. Add spinach to the sauce; cook for 2 minutes or until spinach wilts, stirring constantly. Serve sauce over pasta, and sprinkle with feta.
Who knew that a punch in the face in slow motion could look so fun? I couldn’t stop laughing at the face jiggles…
