Hungry all the time (my girl wants to) ... Toast on Damen
2011-03-30 22:08:00 This morning I woke up and the third eye was wide open. A million thoughts were racing in my head - what to do next? The universe told me: "Go to Toast." I have no idea why I needed to go to Toast but I did what I was told without hesitation and I walked over there this morning. I LOVE TOAST. I'm talking about Toast on Damen Avenue, the fabulous restaurant in Bucktown. There's a funny story behind that. I lived a block away from where and when that restaurant opened in the late 90's. Being a generation X'er and a non-yuppie at that time (or tried to be) I remembered when Toast was opening in my 'hood I thought: darn...

Fannie Mae And Freddie Mac Are Toast
2011-02-13 00:39:00 There has been an awful lot of discussion in the last couple of days about the fate of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government sponsored entities that have been providing liquidity to the mortgage market for decades. Thankfully, it appears more and more likely that these two black holes will be dismantled. Yesterday morning the Treasury Department issued a press release on behalf of the Obama administration outlining their plan for winding down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. I won't regurgitate the entire proposal here (you can just as easily click on that link) but I will point out that the key concept is to start by more appropriately shifting the risk back to the homeowners and the...

A Holiday Toast
2010-12-22 20:05:00 Amid the hustle and bustle of retail shopping and snow shoveling, we pause to toast 2010. Ask yourself : What am I grateful for? 2010 was a year of discoveries and change for our family - a year that began with profound sadness and continued for months with agonizing difficulty. And the storm never fully passed, merely dissipated. Slowly, though, miniscule cracks began to appear between the clouds, and sunshine would gloriously light up our household. Our family learned to revel in those peeks of sunshine, to bask in the warmth. May you never take for granted the seemingly mundane rhythms of life and the simple joys and blessings we are given each day. May 2011 be filled with the peaceful...

If he were here, I would not write, and he is not here, and I am here, and I don't think I will stop again, and does that have to equate to I will not be with him again?

A Post about Toast
2010-10-05 22:47:00 My g-friend and co-author, Julie Upton, MS, RD and her bud, Katherine Brooking, MS, RD, have this blog called, Eat Like an RD. Yes, it's all sprouts and whole grains and the new junk food craze, baby carrots. No, not really. It's great ideas from dietitians and insights from the pair on anything from lunch to calcium to Julie's run in the Rockies. I was reading it today and decided to borrow a post to post. There's so much diet hullaballoo (I'm not complaining), that I was struck by this very easy, quite useful and super tasty toast post - A Toast to Toast.

A toast to "Bye Bye Liver"
2009-11-03 01:09:00 It doesn't matter how drunk you are; if stage comedy is bad, it's bad. So we were delighted to find out this weekend that the long-running "Bye Bye Liver: The Chicago Drinking Play" at Pub Theater on the second floor of Fizz was so funny, it didn't actually need between-scene drinking games to lubricate our laughter (though it helped).Skits about third-year dating anniversaries gone awry and the age-old question of "why do women travel in packs to the bathroom" take topics you think have been comedically beaten to death and sort of make fun of them, proving to the audience that "Bye Bye" doesn't take itself too seriously. This weekend's Halloween edition of the show involved "Name That Tune"-style drinking games...

2009-10-27 20:17:00 I used to write a monthly entertainment column for "today's chicago woman" because I have always loved that this wonderful local magazine keeps a strong commitment & focus not only to the unique character of our great city of chicago, but to the hard working talented women that deserve all the credit in the world for making us that great!

Diageo (DEO): Toast to growth & income
2009-07-22 06:00:00 "Diageo (NYSE: DEO), the world's largest spirit maker, offers a solid and safe dividend, as well as the potential for strong capital appreciation," says Louis Basenese.The senior analyst for the prestigious The Oxford Club suggests, "Moreover, investors can also prepare for a US dollar decline by buying these shares." Here's his bullish outlook."Headquartered in London, roughly 70% of the company's sales come from outside the United States. So any dollar dip will increase the value of our ADRs. "Moreover, management concedes that positive currency tailwinds in the other countries where Diageo sells spirits will help the company easily grow earnings by double digits this year."Sound dollar hedge? Double-digit earnings growth? Those two factors alone justify an investment. But it gets better. Diageo also sports top-notch fundamentals..."As the world's biggest spirits company, it operates in over 180 countries, which provides...

It gets more confusing when I use French Bread To Make Texas Toast (A Great
2009-02-10 19:31:00 Last night, Sweetie made lasagna and garlic bread. As I write this, though, I'm not sure if it was garlic bread, or if it was french bread. I used to call it French bread, I guess because it was made from those long loaves of bread that the French have adopted to replace the epee in Olympic fencing competitions... but it's probably supposed to be garlic bread because she puts garlic and butter on the French bread.Which raises the question: why don't we just use Italian bread to make garlic bread? Our dinner table has a whole EU thing going on.That's all not the point. The point is this: After putting my lasagna on my plate, and after helping Mr Bunches and Mr F into their chair, and after helping them back out of their chair to run around, and after saying Grace and after eating a piece of garlic bread, I then took my first forkful of lasagna and instantly boiled away the roof of my mouth.Why do Italian foods retain heat so effectively for so long, and why are we not using ...

Twist and Toast - Toastbrot selbstgebastelt Nr. 2
2009-01-27 08:38:00 Nach dem bei meinem letzten Versuch frei nach Spliff die Kruste weggeflogen ist, habe ich es diesmal mit The Tremeloes Twist and Shout Toast versucht. Beide Titel kann man sich hier brigens kostenlos anhren. Ich besitze keine Pain-de-Mie-Form wie Chili & Ciabatta oder Schnuppschnss , sondern zwei 2,4 l fassende Chromstahlformen mit dazugehrigen Deckel. Mit diesen hochmodernen Gertschaften sollte sich so etwas zu einer Pain-de-Mie-Form aufpimpen lassen. An der Fllmenge musste auf jeden Fall noch gearbeitet werden. Nach einigen Berechnungen bin ich zum dem Schluss gekommen, dass fr meine Formen eine Fllmenge von 750 g optimal sein msse. Da die sogenannte Twist-Methode: Der angegarte Rundling wird geteilt und zu zwei Strngen miteinander gerollt. Die Stnge werden wie Twisttmineinander verdreht. von diesen Bckerinnen als optimal beurteilt wurde, habe ich diese angewandt. Und obwohl ich wie sie die Grzeit etwas verlngert habe, habe ich offensichtlich das ...

Virtual Toast.com could have been bigger than Youtube and the Superbowl com
2009-01-20 04:12:00 Everyone thinks that "e-commerce" is not only the next big thing, but easy as pie, too. And by everyone, I mean me. I had this brilliant idea -- virtual toast. Sounds awesome, right? Here's how it works:You'd go to the website (http://www.virtualtoastonlinef-orme.com) and browse through my selection. There were kinds of bread, kinds of toasters, kinds of butter and other toppings (even marmalade, for those of you who liked Paddington and always wanted to know what "marmalade" was)(I think it's something with the peels in it.) At each section, you'd click on what you want, say "Rye," toasted in the "1950's style diner toaster" and topped with "cream cheese." Then, you'd go check out, click, and Virtual Toast would instantly contact a subcontractor in India who would place the order and one over 4,572 Virtual Toast franchises would get the order and deliver your toast, to your door -- in as little as a day!How could that not fail? But, as it turns out, it could, because w...
