SNACK TIME: It's a-meeee, veggie Mario!, Musical TwEATers, sorghum beer here, You should "like" this co-op, Taco Tuesdays has a new home

AnnaTheRed on Flickr - Thank goodness for the Internet - I know I can't be the only one who's ever wondered how to make my veggies look more like classic video game power-ups. Thankfully, AnnaTheRed's Flickr shows you, step by step, how to turn a simple radish into a Mario Brothers-style mushroom. Here we gooo! - I've always wondered about what certain bands eat while on tour, especially ones with dietary restraints. Scottish band Mogwai has read my mind and created a Twitter account based solely on what they eat, I'm into it. - Philadelphia Beer Enthusiast shares some awesome news regarding Dock Street Brewing Co.'s plans to brew its third batch of sorghum-based Sudan Grass Ale, which is naturally gluten-free. The beer will be "slightly tart and fruity in flavor; reminiscent of a cider or mead." - As a South Philadelphian and a food lover, I am very interested in the South Philly Food Co-op. I have participated in their many meetings and events, all in the hopes of making this dream a reality. Are you a "friend" of theirs on Facebook yet? I promise you they don't play Farmville and won't "like" everything you post. - Phoodie makes me feel all old by pointing out that those of us who recall wild Taco Tuesdays at Tattooed Mom's are, well, old. Looks Like Barbarella, aka the upstairs at the Barbary, is taking over for all you crazy taco-lovin' kids north of Market Street. FYI, I participate in Taco Tuesdays - by making them in the comfort of my AC'd home. Suck it, youngins! Soma Sengupta Posted 2010-08-13 08:04:26
