I was at a nice Jewish Deli today in the downtown area of Ft. Lauderdale. It’s called The Top Hat. I’ve been multiple times in the past and have always enjoyed it. Today I had the Matzo Ball Soup (Excellent!) and a nosh plate of Mac N Cheese. Nothing on the menu suggested the Mac N Cheese would be served with some spicy kick to it…and being a Jewish Deli I certainly didn’t expect it. But it was spicy.
Was this you (sort of)?

What’s surprising to me is that you could find a Jewish deli at all! They are on the critically endangered list in NYC.

Have many of them been in the last decade? (see comment above)

They could always have 2 kitchens & 2 dining rooms, & serve you one dish in each.

There was a lot to chirp about in this Long Island town.
A lazuli bunting, known for living on the West Coast, visited the bird feeder at Meigan Madden Rocco’s Flanders, Long Island home to the pleasant surprise of bird lovers near and far.
Hundreds of visitors, from Connecticut, New Jersey and even Buffalo and Ithaca, flocked there to see the blue songbird, which is a rarity in the Northeast and has only been spotted in New York once before, in 1998.
“There were people that would see this bird and start crying,” Rocco told The Post.
“They were praying, hugging each other, high-fiving when the bird would come. This is apparently on every birdwatcher’s bucket list.”
The creature first made an appearance on April 18 and returned every day until Monday, once an hour.
“That’s pretty much what they do during any migration, but especially such a long one. They’ll stop along the route and fill up and fuel themselves for the next leg,” she explained.
“And according to the bird experts I’ve spoken to, they said that Monday night’s conditions were prime for the birds to migrate and there were a lot of birds flying that night.”
When Rocco first saw the bird outside, she took its picture and sent it to her friend, a former wildlife officer at the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
“She texted me back almost immediately and said, ‘I think that’s a lazuli bunting, but the location makes no sense.'”
When her friend confirmed it was in fact a lazuli bunting, she reported it as a rare bird sighting on the database eBird and even added its photo to the Facebook group New State Rare Bird Alert.
“I had no idea what was in store because then within probably three or four hours, I started getting text messages, emails, some people called me,” she said.
Spectators wanted to repay Rocco for the once-in-a-lifetime sighting, so she asked them to donate to the Southampton Animal Shelter.
“They called me yesterday and a week later, they’re still trying to get through all the donations,” she said.
She said it didn’t bother her to have so many unexpected visitors.
“I didn’t mind at all because I really enjoyed watching the people and their reactions. But it was definitely different getting up in the morning and having binoculars and camera lens pointing in my kitchen window,” she said, laughing.
I WOULD HAVE FLIPPED THEM THE BIRD!

City opens new 35-acre public nature preserve along the Rockaway waterfront in Edgemere
By Bill Parry
City officials, elected leaders, developers and community members gathered at the location of a formerly vacant illegal dumping ground on Beach 44th Street Wednesday to cut the ribbon at the new 35-acre Arverne East Nature Preserve and Welcome Center along the Rockaway waterfront in Edgemere.
The preserve represents phase one of an ambitious Arverne East development project, which will transform more than 100 acres of underutilized space between Beach 32nd Street and Beach 56th Place into 1,650 units of housing — 80% of which will be affordable, serving low-income and middle-income individuals and families — in addition to retail and community space, a hotel and a tap room and brewery.
The new nature preserve hosts five different maritime ecosystems, providing a safe home for diverse local animal and plant life. Pedestrian pathways weave through the preserve, offering New Yorkers a new way to observe and appreciate these natural environments, including accessible connections to the Rockaway boardwalk. A new multipurpose building was also constructed as part of this project, which will house a community meeting space, crew headquarters for Parks maintenance staff and a public restroom.

Bottom here. However, I used to top every time. It wasn’t until I met my partner did I begin to bottom. I don’t consider myself verse. I’ve always enjoyed sticking to a position with whomever I was with at the time (which is why I never bottomed previously). My partner was strict about topping so I had to make the change (there was no way I would walk away 😆). We have been together for a while now and I don’t see anything changing. So, I’m a bottom! 🎉

I'm not even tempted by his siblings Jensen Ackles & Melissa Roxburgh.

“It seems the preferred agreed upon way to cut a sandwich is diagonally but I think a horizontal cut is much more appealing and satisfying,” one Redditor starts his post in the subgroup @/unpopularopinion.
“It gives more of a full bite every time instead of starting with a small point and working into a fuller middle.”
“It also holds a sandwich together better if you have a lot of ingredients that may otherwise slip out from the points of a diagonally cut sandwich,” he mic drops and leaves it up to the internet to agree.
Spoiler alert: not everyone did!
Commenters were quick to share their preferred methods with each claiming their choice was superior.
“I’ve always thought of that being the main benefit of the triangle cut, that I can carve away easy-to-fit-in-my-mouth bites from the corners rather than trying to negotiate with a flat surface,” one shares.
why bother dirtying a knife at all?

Thank you for being there in my time of grief. Although it might give some hope that, in addition to Garcelle continuing on RHOBH, that Jeannie Mai might be open to joining RHOA and Adrienne in the new version of RHONY.
Jeannie's divorce drama has been loads of fun. Adrienne spent over $1 million on failed IVF before going with a surrogate.

Honestly, the first time I was really conscious of this was when I started habitually watching Wendy Williams the last few years of her show. No matter what food she was talking about, there was some kind of mention of her adding hot sauce to it.
I have never been able to tolerate anything more than the slightest bit of spice although there are times while I don't even mind a dish being slightly too spicy just because I'm in the mood to have something out of the ordinary.
and when Stop & Shop was having a clearance on all sort of stuff in January, I got a couple of bags barbecue potato chips for $.67 apiece (full size) and basically ate each one in three sittings. Not that that is particularly spicy, but that's about as hot as I usually like to go.
but just reading articles and watching TV shows the last few years I have seen how hotter, spicier foods have become much more common.
