Read this interesting article today on a small controversy revolving around the aging of cheese. Reminds me that I want to start making it again at home. Living in Buffalo, it’s actually really hard (so far impossible!) to find locally made fresh mozzarella (in water). Over in Boston, we were able to pick up any [...]

February 14th, 2011 · No Comments · Homesteading
This article in today’s New York Times describes how the housing ‘crisis’ has spread to some cities that have so far been immune to the craziness. It concentrates on the Seattle, WA market.

Until then, you can make pizzeria-quality pizza with the perfectly normal oven in your kitchen.” The [...]

Honestly, I didn’t think they were that relevant anymore. The new media/web 2.0 people have to realize that things are constantly evolving, and building a company around something like MySpace is a bad strategy for longevity. I’m not quite the demographic for the site anymore, but to the best of my knowledge, the main reason [...]
