I think men who can cook are sexy! Don’t care what it is, where they do it or how long it takes. Now the taste is a matter of scrutiny and I can get a bit hostile when it comes to what goes in my mouth… As I argue with my friend Joe about the […]

I’m not gonna lie, October is a solid month, especially here in RI. The leaves start changing, the go-go-go energy of summer fades away and people get a little more pensive and reflective (hopefully not too reflective, though — stave off the depression at least until December).
