I literally laughed out loud at that! I wonder if crazy bread experiments are covered under the new shoreline protection act? We might have to apply for a permit.
Weirs Guy, the last thing I want is landmarks torn down to make way for 'progress'. I've lived here for 15 years now, and have seen a lot of lovely things torn down or burned down, and it saddens me, too. Well, except the Sheafe House. Honestly, that eyesore can go any day now.
No, I'm not one of you, but neither am I 'a visitor'. I'm just a gal from away (Philly, actually) who can appreciate what we have here and still likes a good bagel. My choice of a locally owned and operated bagel shop certainly falls in line with your wish to keep it local and not McFranchised, yes?
I did want to get away from 'back home', that's why
this is my home and has been for so long. Heck, I wouldn't even move out of M'Boro - Meredith is too busy for me
. Embracing, loving, and protecting what we have here and wanting a taste of home shouldn't be mutually exclusive. I'm proud to live in this wonderful place, and proud I chose to live here and raise my family here. That doesn't make me a bad girl when I lament the lousy cheesesteaks up here. There's room for both.
