Big up Santa despite your anti-Italian bias LOL ; )

I was thinking of things like, I now have a dry cleaner, there is a bakery 4 blocks away, the bodega’s milk isn’t sour anymore. Stuff like that.
we live in brooklyn… not afganistan! i cant for the life of me imagine there has ever been a neighborhood anywhere in nyc where there hasnt been a baker, dry cleaner, and a place to get unsour milk. was it that bad at one time? if it was that is horrible.

im not believing anyone really drinks stella.
Heineken too?
I’m glad someone mentioned the Red Sox hats. They are more prominent in Bay Ridge than Yankees hats these days. But as a Yankees fan I’m lovin’ it even more these days – bragging rights coming shortly.
seriously people. you guys are complaining about food in bodegas? I have to spend time on the nicest area of the Upper East Side for work and you can find as much soda and utz chips as any fat ass can eat there.
dont worry.
but I guess thats what you people do.
Fresh pasta one block away.
Thank you, Saraghina.
