Easter
Wow, what a day of non-stop eating. I have never had so many desserts. I seriously ate until I thought I was going to die and then came the dessert and snack plates.
On the easter basket front, things have really changed. Instead of the shredded plastic, earth disaster basket - this year my mother filled an eco-friendly, re-usable shopping tote with candy minus any filler. It was great!
I can't wait until tomorrow night - Dyngus Day. As Mr Mike said Easter is really just Dyngus Day eve. Its so awesome that Buffalo has so many different ethnic groups that each have their own holidays. If I lived in some homo-ethnic or western American town I wouldn't have a different ethnic holiday to celebrate each month. Who else is going out?
Site messages
Usually the messages I get are either hate mail, sexual inuendo or advertisers trying to get their product reviewed. Mostly advertisers.
Then I got this nice message today.
I happened across your blog today.
I just wanted to drop you a note and tell you how nice it was to read something that was interesting, had a variety of topics and great images. The art of the blog seems to be a lost art these days and has been replaced by dull, trite and tedious "I'm at the grocery store! Yay me!" Facebook/Twitter updates.
It was a welcome break to read the past 4 years of your blog and to see that you have posted an update in the past 2 days, so it's current.
And you made me miss Buffalo. That's no small feat!
Thanks!
David
All I have to say is, no - thank you David for making me feel better about not being a twit or whatever they are called. You should start a journal, we have a lot of Buffalo expats here. A lot of time s I feel like I am some internet throw back because I don't facebook or twitter my every moment.
heh, (e:mrmike)'s got it. The calendar listings are free. Recurring listings can be set up in the database to repeat indefinitely, so the calendar editor needs to either put in an end date for the recurrence, or delete Tabu. I guess I could email her.

I thought they closed back in September. Which is too bad because I liked the space and the owner was nice.
Maybe it was just a reoccuring listing that nobody ever cleaned up.
