A quick recap of the week
Here are a few highlights from the past week on AOA:
+ Soapbox: Elisabeth shared why she's proud to have graduated from Albany High School -- and what she hopes for its future.
+ Cassie asked about where to have a tea party.
+ Rob wondered if people thought an aquarium would be a good project for Albany. The resounding majority answer: yes.
+ Eat this: Daniel shared the top-ranked sandwich from the Tour de Egg Sandwich.
+ Jessica asked about a good place to get a birthday cake.
+ Our "Resolution shmezolution!" drawing asked people: What do you think is just too much? There were a lot of fun answers.
+ What was up in the Neighborhood this week: Columbia County, fun in Vermont, the Radix Center, a coyote, Troy's beautiful city hall, Edith Wharton, an angel with attitude, local radio, mini hot dogs from scratch, BYOB, CSA, Sunday yoga, school bus habits, Saratoga ointment, and an eggplant.
+ We stopped by Old Songs in Vorheesville to hear how they're teaching people to play old-school instruments like the accordion and penny whistle.
+ The start of February didn't feel like the start of February.
+ The bats aren't faring well against White Nose Syndrome.
+ The story of how a fashion-obsessed guy got bounced in Saratoga -- for wearing a tux.
+ The GE turbine plant in Schenectady will make an appearance during the Super Bowl.
+ We looked into why there's an organic milk shortage.
+ The Miss Albany Diner was sold.
+ And a local bakery started selling Buffalo chicken wing cupcakes. Yep. So, we ate one.
