What's up in the Neighborhood

The NeighborhoodAmong the topics in this most recent spin around the Capital Region's online neighborhood: John Sweeney, ice cream, a mustache party, burritos, eggs, soda bread, Amtrak, Schodack Island, garbage, hats, a national title and turkey.

Rob reviewed John Sweeney's latest wardrobe accessory.

Dan thinks downtown Saratoga might be headed for ice cream overload.

Albany Jane went to Spain and Portugal night at SCCC's dining room. (And she also attended a mustache party.)

Daniel B and Matt Baumgartner had an exchange about the burritos at Bombers.

It sounds like Leigh has quite the local source for eggs.

Steve's readers offered suggestions about where to find Irish soda bread.

It seems that Kristi ended up on the loud car while riding Amtrak back from NYC.

Albaniana was cautioned -- repeatedly -- at Schodack Island State Park.

Melissa's flower box is not a garbage can.

Jess L made some custom hats for the Olympics.

Chuck remembered Siena's national title.

And Mr. Dave spared a turkey.
