As some of you know already, I have been doing intermittent fasting (IF) for about 3 ½ years now. The value of using IF for me: 1) Increased fat burn; 2) Increased insulin sensitivity; 3) Eat whatever I wanted to my heart’s content, which include tacos, and chips and salsa at Rehoboth.

As her father says, the Ina Garten of B-More. One of the biggest benefits of being married to an opera-singing-Irish-wordsmith is her prowess in the kitchen.

A few months ago, Noonan and I started a new project: taste as many Pastrami sandwiches in the greater Baltimore area as existed. The first and the best pastrami sandwich that I ever had was the one at Pickle’s on the boardwalk of Atlantic City. For our B-more pastrami tour, we started at Steve’s Deli…

Another Summer has come and gone and so has our annual beach to Rehoboth, DE. This time around, however, I can’t say that it was as good a time as last year. It started auspicious enough, with our stop at Hopkins Creamery for probably the best ice cream we’ve ever had. But…
