  1. i went white trash supermarket shopping last night and bought a bunch of frozen food on sale. like hot pockets and stuff to bring in for lunch. ive never had a hot pocket before. they seem really small for how many grams of fat are in those things. but they were on sale and easy to stick in the microwave. one thing i will never eat again. i bought a family size (whatever that means!) box of frozen mac and cheese, it was pretty big and a good hearty meal, i thought, but it had no flavor. the cheese was runny and tasted like h20 and i swear most of it was not macaroni noodles, it was half filled with what i HOPE was just breadcrumbs? it laid in my stomach all night and i totally barfed half of it up this morning :-/ sometimes you really do get what you pay for. do supermarkets usually put stuff on sale when it’s really bad?

  2. I met Thompson outside of the Court Street subway Monday after work where he and a team of campaigners were shaking hands and kissing babies. Seems like a nice guy. Still hope Bloomberg stays.

  3. So – the important stuff: as per the Edge thread above, what is the more important de rigeur kitchen appliance now? Is it a Bosch cooktop, or the past appliance de jour, the Wolfe range?

    Will the rugged, industrial chic of an oversized, over btu’d, overpriced, cast iron restaurant stove be abandoned for the sleek, wipe it off only with special solution and special sponge, modular, space aged cooktop?

    Will the sidewalks of Park Slope, Brooklyn Heights, and other upscale nabes be littered with the iron and steel corpses of culinary and decorative unhipness? Is the Wolfe so yesterday? Should I rent the pickup truck so I can get one on garbage night, now, or should I wait?
