Mark Your Calendars: Nov 11th Wine Tasting at K & K Portage Market in West Park

October 30th, 2009 · No Comments

Every time I go to K & K Portage I leave in a great mood. The Kolar family is very special, friendly, the food is wonderful and the place is, rightfully, an institution.  It’s not just meat or deli foods or wonderful breads and fresh baked foods…they have a nice selection of wines available too. [...]

Maybe Pittsburgh Should Be Our Official Sister City

October 28th, 2009 · No Comments

Hats off to David Lay of David Lay Photo and one of my social media buds. He found a wonderful article on Pop City written by Elaine LaBalme. She is a Pittsburgh-er but loves Cleveland.
In her opinion, we have more ‘great’ food going on here and she lists a few of the places she likes.  [...]

How To Learn About Issue 6 In A Bit More Detail

October 27th, 2009 · No Comments

Participated in a live chat tonight on WKYC’s website which was allegedly set up to discuss Issues 5 and 6.  The discussion was mostly of the talking heads nature (tangents on things like corruption and the Med Mart were annoying). But I was able to glean some written info on sites that everyone might find [...]

Why I am Voting For Issue 6 and Against Issue 5

October 26th, 2009 · No Comments

Sometimes it just seems wrong to not give an opinion. Issue 6 (and by default Issue 5) are important enough that most of us have spent time figuring out the details and deciding how to vote.  I admit one thing: it took me forever to get 5 and 6 straight. Part of the strategy I’m [...]

Set Your TiVo and Turn Blue

October 23rd, 2009 · No Comments

Are you old enough to remember what Turn Blue means? How about ‘Cool it with the boom booms?’  Even if you are younger, check out the documentary on PBS this week. “Turn Blue: The Short Life of Ghoulardi” first airs at 9pm on Tuesday. Ghoulardi was copied (I lived in Boston and there was a [...]

New Website Helps You Support Local NE Ohio Restaurants

October 22nd, 2009 · No Comments

Most of us love supporting local restaurants, and get excited when new ones open in our neighborhoods. We also like to know when special events (like Cleveland Beer Week?) are happening around town.  Now Dining Deals has a new website designed to do just that.  I just checked it out and it features places all [...]

Savor The Moment Let’s You Do Just That

October 21st, 2009 · 2 Comments

Had coffee at a neighborhood coffee shop that is everything I want in a coffee shop.  Not too glitzy but homey and friendly with lots of space and a great neighborhood decor – and one of the best cups of coffee you could want!  I’m talking about Savor The Moment on Rocky River Drive (South of [...]

Case Study: Columbia MO Gets Creative on Energy

October 20th, 2009 · No Comments

KBIA News reports, both in audio and transcript form, a story about Columbia Missouri.  The residents set a goal to meet for renewable energy and they met the goal set in 2004 a little over two years early.  This project is intriguing. It uses methane gas produced naturally from (I assume) land fills/waste decomposition and [...]

NE Ohio Home Sales: Zip Code 44122

October 20th, 2009 · No Comments

I liked examining this zip code because while most of it is in Shaker, it also encompasses parts of Warensville, Orange and Beachwood.  My stats are as usual, only covering homes (single family here) listed and sold by area brokers. But I did glean some info from the new County Data base (auditor’s site). Here [...]
