Posted on October 25, 2010 by

I know this is an old and juvenile joke, but a bunch of us at the Brooklyn Meeting retreat this weekend up at Powell House got a kick out of this "Kitty Litter Cake" made the resident chef Kris. It's basically a chocolate pudding cake, with crumbled up cookies on top to look like the…

I'm sure I will have more coherent comments about the past three days once I've had some more sleep and time to think about it. For the moment, let me just say that this weekend totally rocked.  I was up in the beautiful retreat center run by the Quakers called Powell House along with about…

Montreal Bagel Tasting at Global Kids Today

Posted on October 13, 2010 by

I am admittedly not always the easiest person to work with — short-tempered, critical and stubborn on my worst days.  But I think I made up to my co-workers today in a small way by bringing in a batch of fresh bagels all the way from Montreal for all of us to enjoy.  As NYC…
