What's bubbling in the Neighborhood

posted Jun 18, 2008

The NeighborhoodAmong the topics in this most recent spin around the Capital Region's online neighborhood: dreams of light rail, tough summer jobs, bubble tea, enlightenment through eggplant, and how Rocco Mediate totally missed a good thing.

Qualities of Life in Albany is wondering if the possibility of light rail here is just a dream.

Steve may have come across the worst summer job. Ever.

Albany Jane had some bubble tea that hit the spot.

Renée's crunchy snap peas inspired a haiku.

Celina's been getting schooled by eggplant.
