  1. Pie may be traditional, but apparently chocolate chip cookies hold their own. Levain Bakery a veritable mosh pit when I walked by.
  2. @Zacharycohen Bikram? As in yoga? I'm not NEARLY centered or tranquil enough. I need to stomp, pant, etc., ideally to v. loud music.
  3. It's dreary, wet: the sky looks GRUMPY, even. I want bed, not treadmill. Nap, not run. But tomorrow I want LICENSE. The treadmill it is.
  4. @troutmonster Thanks for reading the book, much, much appreciated.
  5. In food stores, Black Friday is the day BEFORE Tgiving, and it's scary out there. Just passed UWS Fairway. I'd sooner enter Hannibal's cell.
  6. @cettedrucks I do not know if there's a place to purchase GS cookies in Manhattan. I got them from my suburban niece. I have spares!
  7. All over the media: silly Thanksgiving diet advice. How about this? TAKE THE DAY OFF. Enjoy. There are other days to be good.
  8. Every year I assure self it's altruism behind the purchase of so many Girl Scout do-si-dos. The crumbs on my counter tell a different story.
  9. Jamie Oliver and Alice Waters versus the sugar-addled tots in Dylan's Candy Bar. I'd watch THAT reality show.
  10. Just walking in the door of Dylan's Candy Bar, I think I got a cavity, and I gained five pounds, easy, off the sugar fumes alone.
  11. Loving that Crunch gym "body tarp" commercial in NYC cabs. So much truth there, re the Catch-22 of gyms being for the already-fit.
  12. Gave niece, 7, choice: burgers, pizza, Mexican. "Sushi!" she said, and sushi she got. Now she wants lox. In a year it'll be caviar!
  13. RT @MoRocca: Oprah final week in-studio guests! Mon: JD Salinger/Tue: Osama bin Laden/Wed: Amelia Earhart/Th: Sasquatch/Fr: Jesus!
  14. Julia v Kim, sides v turkey (http://tinyurl.com/ye2qogp). If we're talking white meat, Julia's right. Dark meat and SKIN? Gimme that bird!
  15. The smoked trout w/pickled onion never exits Gramercy Tavern menu and never should. Fatty fish, a gentle smoke, flares of tartness: heaven.
  16. A book about urban grist for the NFL mill becomes a movie for a blonde Bullock? How I love Hollywood! And I'm NOT being sarcastic.
  17. He doesn't eat animals. I do. Still, we can talk, and will, on Dec. 7: http://tiny.cc/1tjpt or http://tiny.cc/g5Tdy.
  18. Pasta at Alto & the co. of @goodappetite, @alicefeiring and the generous John Magazino, who snowed white truffles. I'm not worthy.
  19. And some of the reasons Piedmont's so glorious, with tips for those headed there during this truffly time of year: http://tiny.cc/f0rOJ
  20. Meeting friend fresh back from glorious Piedmont. He is packing Barolo and Alba white truffles. He plans to share both. I love him.
