Eating Like a Kid

Whether you call it frugality, cheap-skatedness, or down-right unethical...I call it practical.childsmenu I (acting on behalf of the entire KTOWN crew) often order from the Children's Menu when dining out. Sure. You may laugh at me, and some of you might even look donw your nises in disgust. But after last night's dining experience, I am proud not only to admit to this behavior, but share some inside tips to maximizing your Children's Menu dining experience.

Bring on 2009!

I love New Year's Eve (NYE).nye08 Not because of the parties...when you have two little ones, the evening usually consists of setting the alarm for 11:45pm in case you dose off during the local news, and you want see the ball drop and the fireworks. It's not for the resolutions. I don't make them. If I determine there's something I need to do or stop doing...then I usually don't wait. Seems dishonest or highly inefficient to wait for a completely arbitrary day like January 1st. Why not the second Tuesday in March? That could be a cool day...if there were parties and fireworks.

Fall in KTOWN

Fall is quite beautiful in KTOWN.

This Christmas KTOWN is going GREEN. We won't be sending out Christmas cards this year. We believe this will reduce our waste stream and the amount of photo paper that enevidably ends up in our landfills by discarded Christmas cards...and, hopefully, save a few tress...which seems ironic given the traditions of this season. But we will be sending out the much eco-friendly, environmentally conscience, and fire-proof Christmas E-MAIL. Read More

Categories: Life in KTOWN, a la carte

Sure. It's not the most delightful subject in the world, but someone has to get it out....bad choice of words. Dog poo. It's everywhere...in your yard, in your favorite park, on your favorite beach, and maybe in your closet. What are you supposed to do with it? Etiquette says that you are supposed to take this poo...a "green product"...and pick it up with a plastic bag and dispose of it in a proper trash recipticle. Now this ... Read More
