When Poster Parodies Attack
The group health plan at work decided to send up a bunch of "healthy living" posters to remind us to stop eating junk food and start working out. They're along the lines of this one: Of course, it just begs...

Restaurant Roundup: Winnipeg,MB (yes, in Canada)
I know, it's been like a month since I got back from the Great White North. That doesn't mean I can't share some good eats of Canada, right? It was really cold and gray up there in January. The temps...
A Quick Note From Ames, Iowa
It's 16ºF here. There's supposed to be 4 inches of snow tomorrow. I think I picked the wrong place for a on-site.
More Office Pranks

I was on business in the greater Houston area last week, a trip that wouldn’t have been all that bad if not for the hovel of a hotel I had stayed in. I’m not exactly picky about hotels either. I’m...

Egg White Omelets
Every Friday, work buys breakfast for us. Today’s order was from Mimi’s Cafe and this didn’t exactly thrill me. It’s not that I don’t like Mimi’s food, but our new-found affinity for not over-eating excludes just about every dish they...
Back to Savannah
I'm back on the road again, this time on a business trip to Hinesville, GA, just outside of Savannah. There's no cohesive entry here (I wouldn't want to bore you to death with a noodle post), so I just have...
Peanut Butter Jelly Time
There are a lot of food combinations that are totally non-obvious. Tortellini and eggs, chili and spaghetti, cream cheese and cucumbers. Even peanut butter and jelly can be non-obvious. Well, it can be when you use habanero jelly. That's right....
