I picked up the Inquirer today, and realized to my surprise that my favorite legal fiction novelist of all time – Lisa Scottoline – has been writing a column “Chick Wit” for the Inquirer for at least a year. Check it out, it’s fantastic. Also, read her books, they’re fantastic as well.
Also, I happened to be reading the paper at one of my favorite new cafes – Under the Oak Cafe in Oak Lane. Definitely the best cafe I have ever found outside of Center City. And it’s only five minutes from my house! Whenever I’m traveling and have the urge for fast food or something equally devilish, I try to stop there. At least I’m supporting local owners. Check out the Citypaper review!
And last but not least:
Seen on Broad and Olney at 1Pm post-snowfall on Friday evening. An elderly Korean man sees an elderly white woman struggling to cross Broad street through the sleet and ice. Silently, he extends his elbow. Silently she takes it. They cross the street slowly. He bows. They separate. That’s the Olney neighborhood for you….
