May 17, 2007 will be the first free coffee day at all 7 of their locations. They're hoping to prove how awesome their coffee is by giving it away...

This morning the house still smelled like bacon. A two-for-one deal at the supermarket made brunch abound with bacon Sunday morning. Mmmmm…bacon. The deliciously fatty pork product is the reason that we couldn’t keep up a vegetarian diet or have we ever thought of becoming kosher. Today we’re hearing reports all over the place that bacon may be healthy for the first time since the Atkins Diet fell out of favor. omega-3 fatty acids have...

For those tomato fans out there that were appalled at the mealy, overpriced produce at the chain supermarkets this past winter, you can relax. The farmers' markets are now in full swing in the city and you can buy all the fresh produce, herbs, and baked goods your little cooking heart desires.
