What's left on the table? (Free subscription) | 18/11/2009
My apologies to Mitch Albom, as it's been Wednesdays with Dorie around here lately. I know that I've spread myself a little bit thin when I run out of cinnamon. Seriously, now, I. Ran. Out. Of. Cinnamon. In the fall. It's one of my favorite spices, or really one of my favorit e flavors, and I use multiple 8 oz Penzey's bags each year. So imagine my surprise when I went to make this recipe and found...

(Sports Illustrated and Boston Phoenix scribe Charles Pierce recently reviewed Bill Simmons’ “The Book of Basketball” for Deadspin. My thoughts on Pierce’s thoughts was going to be this blog post, until it turned into something else. That original post may come somewhere down the line, but for now, here’s that “something else.”) I hate Deadspin, the [...]

A National Treasure
Rising Hegemon (Free subscription) | 13/11/2009
The right non-reverend Charles Pierce knows how to do a book review , here in regard to smarm-merchant (and I know smarm) Bill Simmons "The Book of Basketball" : I swear to Christ, there's a book in here somewhere, and probably a pretty good one. Unfortunately, at this point, it appears that I'm going to need diamond-tipped drill bits, Bruce Willis from Armageddon, that rock-eating thing...

MITCH ALBOM: Your face in lights in Times Square -- just buy this T-shirt
Detroit Free Press (Free subscription) | 08/11/2009
When I was a kid, I went to Times Square and looked up at the billboards. They were massive. Biggest signs I ever saw. "How do you get up there?" I asked my grandmother. "You have to be famous," she said.

Recommended: Have a Little Faith: A True Story By Mitch Albom
Tzvee's Talmudic Blog (Free subscription) | 08/11/2009
We recommend Have a Little Faith: A True Story By Mitch Albom. This is a book about prayer as lived in the lives of two average clergymen. Americans have run away from their clergy for decades. Albom's writing will warm your heart and bring tears to your eyes. And it will restore some of the lost dignity to the profession of the cloth. The Reb, Rabbi Albert Lewis was Albom's hometown rabbi in suburban...

Crazy Cozy Murders (Free subscription) | 02/11/2009
I had a couple interesting days lately, book-wise! First, I spent some time with a vegan vampire (no worries, in the end said vampire decided to give in and eventually survived!), and now I'm with a almost-bulimic werewolf. This sure sounds crazy, but I'm having so much fun! The characters are far from your average vampire or werewolf. As for the books, I'll keep you guessing with the vegan vampire,...
