4/3/09 Salt and Vinegar Chips

Have you ever had a salt and vinegar chip? I had my first one today. They're a little spicier than pier fries with salt and vinegar but it's the same delicious combo: potato, oil, salt, vinegar. I'm guessing it's a New England thing, but I really don't know. I'd love your comments about this!

4/3/09 Flood Watch

This was an interesting email to receive. It was actually the first notice I had received (since I don't watch or listen to much news) that we were in a flood watch, much less that it was this close. I've heard stories of a flood a few years back where this parking lot was pretty instantly flooded and a bunch of students lost their cars to flood damage. It must be spring time. Rain and melting snow will overflow a river pretty fast.
