this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

There's even a vegetarian wine bar a couple blocks away!

Is that The Wine Guy Bistro? My mom and stepdad have said the food is pretty good there.

Oh, I just realized you can walk down to the farmers market, because it's right on the square on Sunday mornings! Blue Oven Bakery is fantastic. And if Wedge Bakery is there, they make great pies.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

There's a vegan gastro pub near me, I keep meaning to go there but we so rarely get a chance to go out to eat just the two of us.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It's Unwind Wine Bar.

I'd seen some signs for the farmers market, but I'd forgotten which day it was. I'm not sure I'll buy anything this week -- it depends on how unpacked my kitchen stuff is. But I'm definitely going to go check it out.

Dang, I hadn't even heard of that one. I live under a rock. With the tacos.

t edit Huh. That is one block from my old apartment. And I just realized I lived there 17 years ago. I would have sworn it was maybe 9. Daaaang.

I only heard of it from a website listing veg stuff.

Eh. May not be the world's biggest city, but a city. Nobody is going to know every cool place around, possibly excluding local feature journalists/reviewers, and independently wealthy party boys & girls.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm up and waiting for the AC guy to come and measure our wall AC to see what size replacement we need to buy. Once again my request of, please call on my cellphone has been ignored in favor of the house phone, but luckily I knew where the house phone was, actually had it charged, and was able to answer it.

Our wings are not tired.

Travel saga aka kindness of strangers.

The schedule was to arrive in Syracuse last night after 11 getting to Otter Lake about 1am. My flight out of FLL was delayed, then weather diversions got it to Atlanta about 15 min before my connecting flight. Arrived in concourse E and departing from Concourse A. Went as fast as a fat old lady can manage and missed the flight. There were 3 of us and they put us on a later flight to Rochester.

One of the guys says he is going to rent a car and drive to SYR and I am welcome to join him. Having never had the stranger danger talk, I said sure! After some discussion we decide that the location of my luggage is unknown and it is just as easy to drive to Oswego where my niece lives.

So with dying phone I contact Lynda and she is delighted because she doesn't have to work today and loves the surprise detour. Bobby decides to wait until morning to fetch me. One of my bags made it to Rochester, but my carryon that I let them check still went to SYR.

Had a lovely ride with Jack. Same age. 3 kids. Wife just had 60th birthday visit with her friend in Boynton. Chatted the whole trip, getting to Oswego a little after 2am. So he wasn't an axe murderer after all.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yay, not-the-ripper Jack!

Not so yay, people not following simple directions.
