Today’s Box
By Tammy (BFW) in Eco Friendly on Apr 29th, 2008 | 5 Comments
It’s that time again… the 3-yo and I were very excited to see that familiar green Boston Organics box sitting on the porch when we got home today. Like two little kids (okay, one of us IS a little kid), we rushed inside to see what our bi-weekly box contained.We were psyched to see:

Oishii is “Delicious”
Literally. A common Japanese adjective (日本語) meaning “tasty” or “delicious”, Oishii not only denotes this restaurant’s namesake but also describes — quite accurately — what you are bound to experience when you eat at this spacious, interesting and popular sushi...
“Kid-friendly” — If you want to kill yourself…
No, I shouldn’t say that. Masona Grill (in West Roxbury) is definitely kid friendly… it’s just that MY kid is not always “restaurant-friendly”. Granted, I have a healthy buzz going right now, so in addition to making phenomenal typos (I’m sure), I may also be *exaggerating*...

Unfortunately we had a babysitter cancellation issue — so no date night. We’re still heading to Oishii tomorrow night though, so look for the review this weekend.

A hearty thanks…

Be good to your mother…
Mother Earth that is. Today is Earth Day. What did you do?I planted lots of perennials and did some composting. I also cleaned out my refrigerator… making sure to recycle everything I could.Lastly, I pondered what else I could be doing to help the environment and our existence on this planet. I...
We’re off like a prom dress…
Well, it’s our last night in the Sunshine State and rather than writing individual posts on the remaining places I haven’t talked about yet, I thought I would just do a little summary.
On Tuesday, we went to Hana Sushi, located at 397 E. Altamonte Drive in Altamonte Springs. As you can guess...
GREAT SUBS
That’s what the sign reads at Kappy’s Submarine Shop — at 501 North Orlando Avenue in Maitland, Florida. And great subs they were!
This hidden gem is definitely worth a visit.
A 50’s-style drive-up from bygone days, Kappy’s offers their famous Philly cheese steaks, all beef...
