We just made bagels!

Posted on April 15, 2007

Sometimes in the middle of a long downhill hike, a Wendy’s Frosty is exactly what my body wants, and the imagining is almost as good as the tasting.

It’s kind of the same here in Moshi: meat, ice cream and beer (Tusker is really good, but so is variety!) usually top the list, but just the other day I also remembered how much I miss bagels—really good bagels, in all their chewy, tear ‘em apart, not-the-kind-you’d-get-in-the-grocery-store dense goodness.

Thanks to the web, then, above all his nobler yet sadly more elusive brethren, the humble bagel has proved himself this morning victorious, breaking open the way of gastronomic manifestation for all those who shall follow!

Mmmmm.

Bagels: Not Invented Here

Russell is very, very funny

If you read this site, you’re probably already my mom. But, in the off chance you’re somebody else, you may not know that

  1. Valerie’s brother Russell is very, very funny, and
  2. He was picked to open for Lewis Black at the Carolina Comedy Festival a couple of months ago!

And thanks to his buddies, we can now all hear this recording of his performance, after which The Daily Tar Heel called him “an outstanding young talent with a delivery that was at once spastic, awkward and oddly endearing.”

He’s fantastic—enjoy!
