What's up in the Neighborhood
Among the topics in this most recent spin around the Capital Region's online neighborhood: no effing clue, VegFest, DIY, farm breweries, doulas, Fudge Fancies, savory waffles, loukoumathes, calamari, a lunch secret, a vineyard, a four bagger, no-longer car dealerships, the Madison marquee, and paradise.
On parenting, Stephanie concluded, "I HAVE NO EFFING CLUE AS TO WHAT I'M DOING." But her family found some perspective among the hustle and bustle and other young families at Colonie Center.
Silvia said she "was awestruck by much of" Albany VegFest. Albaniana left the event thinking about her enthusiasm for her own favorite cause.
Albany Jane walked through the steps of the DIY bathroom renovation in the house she and Albany John recently bought.
Greg Back attended the fundraiser for the new farm brewery institute at the Carey Center.
One of Kristi's readers asked about doulas.
Jerry focus-grouped some Fudge Fancies. (Also: "I had the pleasure of crunching into a fresh cannoli shell for the first time since moving to the region almost 17 years ago.")
J+R enjoyed a savory waffle at The Iron Roost.
Steve said the loukoumathes at Athos is "an utterly winning dish."
