Debating The Big Ten Title: Ohio State and Iowa Collide... Blogger Style
2009-11-13 18:27:00 With the Big Ten game of the year right around the corner, two die hard fans got together to debate the merits of their two teams. Bret Feddern, a self-admitted Hawkeye Nerd on IowaHawkeyes.net and Bleacher Report Iowa Featured Columnist, will argue for the Hawkeyes. Following Bret's tweets during an Iowa game is fun... give it a shot. I will be arguing for the Buckeyes (as if they need the help.)The Hawkeyes and Buckeyes take the field on Saturday and the winner will be off to the Rose Bowl. We can't match that drama here, but we'll give it a shot....
Pig Out - In Style
2009-11-12 00:59:00 Seems like lately everyone's been going whole hog for pork. We've gorged on bacon for so long that we're beginning to squeal like little piggies. I've always been a bit of a ham, but now my nose is looking more like a snout and I seem to snort more often when I laugh...Anyway, I've been hearing rumors of bacon-overload, but some of Chicagoland's top chefs are going to give it one more try, because apparently we haven't had pig until we've had The Mangalitsa....
Over-the-knee boots, Judy Aldridge style
2009-11-11 15:00:00 On our website, twentythirtyforty.net, we've been alternately featuring guest stylists to give us their take on an item from our shop. The fabulous Judy Aldridge of Atlantis Home, admittedly a muse of ours, recently took us up on the guest stylist challenge, rocking our Opening Ceremony over-the-knee wedge boots. In case you don't know, Judy Aldridge is a blogger and fashionista, but is also the mother of Jane Aldridge, arguably one of the hottest young stylists in the blogosphere (she's been featured in Vogue and tapped to design capsule collections for Urban Outfitters -- and she's a mere 17). But back to Judy.We just love Judy for knowing who she is and wearing what she loves. She is always tasteful and...

Teams Reacting to Influenza 2009 style.
2009-11-07 18:11:00 Last week I had a chance to talk to the coaches of both Chicago Wolves and the Rockford IceHogs on the same subject"what are you doing to help your teams stay healthy during this pandemic?" First both teams have programs in place and are taking common sense measures. Every player has their own water bottle, no sharing allowed, separate towels, hand sanitizer rules the locker rooms. Each team has seen to it that every player has had a seasonal flu shot. Both coach Bill Peters of the IceHogs and Don Lever of the Wolves denied that there had been any players receiving H11N1 vaccinations due to high risk status. Coach Peters also said the Hogs would receive H1N1 vaccines when...

Halloween... KISS style. And, a contest for YOU!
2009-10-30 22:58:00 Halloween is tomorrow, and what goes better together than Halloween and KISS? Earlier this week, our 3 children picked out their Halloween pumpkins and decided what kinds of faces to carve this year. And, no surprise... they were KISS faces. (And no, this wasn't the first time we've done this, either...)Kids tend to embrace KISS because KISS represents a kind of continual Halloween state anyway, with their trademark facepaint and superhero, larger-than-life personas. After cleaning the "yucky stuff" out of the pumpkins, I asked our 2-year-old whose face he'd like me to carve on his."Paww Stanwey." You got it, buddy. Our 4-year-old chose the God of Thunder, Gene Simmons, and our 13-year-old tackled her favorite drummer, Eric Singer. This was...

FASHION Magazine’s Men’s Fall Style Special Event
2009-09-21 19:00:00 FASHION Magazine's Men's Fall Style Special Event I attended the FASHION Magazine’s Men’s Fall Style Special Event last week. I brought The Grumpy Owl with me since he sometimes concerns himself with fashionable things. The party was to celebrate the launch of the FASHION Magazine’s Men’s Fall Style Special supplement. It’s a magazine created by the Fashion Magazine team dedicated to men’s fashion. There were cigars and a small cigar lounge setup outside. The Grumpy Owl bought a nice cigar and enjoyed it on the patio. There were canapes and drinks at the party but we were also treated to a Hugo Boss Fall 2009 fashion show. The Men’s Fashion Fall 2009 supplement is pretty good. I love the product offering and the way they are displayed. There is also a long article demystifying men’s grooming by Andrew Sardone. I LOVE the men’s editorial though. Here are two images to get your hungry to find it. FASHION Magazine'...

Vanilleeis Philadelphia-Style
2009-08-21 15:35:00 Der Zusatz von Guarkernmehl verhindert - wie hier schon festgestellt - die Bildung von Eiskristallen und das Eis lässt sich gut etwas länger in der Tiefkühltruhe aufbewahren ohne anschließend noch über Stunden steinhart zu sein. Sohn No. 2 gab dann bei dieser Hitze auch gleich seine Bestellung auf: Vanilleeis, Joghurteis und Limetteneis sollten einen festen Platz in der Truhe haben. Das seien seine Lieblingssorten. Bislang habe ich immer Vanilleeis französischer Machart hergestellt - mit einer Basis aus Eiern, die über einem Wasserbad aufgeschlagen werden. Das verleiht dem Eis seine glatte und seidige Struktur. Die amerikanische Variante kommt ohne Eier aus. Philadelphia-style Eiskrems werden einfach zusammengerührt und/oder püriert und sind im Vergleich zur französischen Variante fester, gefrieren fester, dafür aber leichter festzustellen. Das habe ich heute ausprobiert, aber ebenfalls Guarkernmehl zugefügt. Das Vanilleeis Philadelphia-Style schmeckt - wie hier mit Karamell...

Hooray - full figured men are back in style!
2009-08-18 20:30:00 Photo Credit: Victoria Peckham via Flickr Thanks to an article in the New York Times, I'm suddenly hip! And apparently, I terminated my gym membership at the right time as well. Potbellys are back in style - and no I'm not talking about potbelly pigs, or those really yummy sandwiches.. I'm talking about potbellys on men. According to the NYT they're back in style and they even have a nickname "The Ralph Kramden."  I guess that makes it sound better when you rub your belly and call it Ralph instead of Bud Light. The article tries to draw the correlation of the appearance of overly muscled men to women entering the workforce.  David Zinczenko, editor of Men's Health said "Suddenly it became ore important...
