What's up in the neighborhood

posted Mar 23, 2011

The NeighborhoodAmong the topics in this most recent spin around the Capital Region's online neighborhood: continuing the conversation, dogs and vodka, the Tombstone burger, a hole in the wall, corned beef, soft serve, cupcakes, a meat cake, pedicures, waterfalls, trivia, an angel, and Bandit.

Daniel Nester says it's worth continuing the conversation about the kegs and eggs riot.

Rob would like it known his dogs will not get away with such drunken shenanigans.

Jerry took on the Tombstone Burger at Wagon Train BBQ -- and he's going back for the Graveyard challenge.

Albany Jane went to one her favorite "cheapie hole-in-the-wall kind of places."

Steve asked people about their St. Patrick's Day corned beef.

Daniel B is organizing a Tour de Soft Serve.

Rebecca had vegan cupcakes from X's to O's for her birthday.

Yellow House Leah made her husband a meat cake for his birthday -- yep, looks like a birthday cake, but it's made of meat.

One of Kristi's readers asked about finding an inexpensive pedicure.

Albaniana checked out the partially-frozen waterfall at Thacher Park.

Alas, Chuck did not run naked around the the Stuyvesant Plaza Friday's.

Paula noticed that there's at least one angel at the Capitol.

And we're going to miss Bandit blogging.
