White books

Hayley DeRoche is a librarian, which is one of the reasons we like her so much. The other reason is that she was self-aware enough to be like, “Oh no, I accidentally got my kid a bunch of books about white people and only white people!”.

Brown food

Get into Super Bowl Sunday by treating your mouth and punishing your body. Stephanie Ganz tells you how! Now go………whoever is playing!

Cup of joe

Did you know about this Starbucks card exchange thing at Alchemy Coffee? You can turn that grocery-checkout-line purchase by your boss into some drops of pure, local, caffeinated gold, which is almost like…wait. Wait a second. IT IS ALMOST LIKE ALCHEMY.

Food in a row

Publix is coming! To Glen Allen, at least, but that’s something. More grocery stores! Give us even more!!  We can handle it!

Debt in piles

Senators Tim Kaine and Mark Warner (both former governors of our great commonwealth) invited some students to DC to talk a lot about what the heck can be done about the rampant overspending of Virginians–nay, Americans–on college debt. There are some interesting stats in here!

A street of smiles

JK, Boulevard is more like a street that is just trying to get by while everyone else rips each other’s hair out about it. Here’s an opportunity to refresh your memories and give possibly useful data to the City. It’s probably just as if not wildly more useful to give your opinion directly to City Council, but it can’t hurt.

If the BRT looked like this, would the neighborhood associations be into it?

Just a thought!
