eric webster: Zucchini Bread - a peace offering (read: Bribe) to make up for the fact that I've been gone so long.
- 09/15/09 01:51 AM
It's been a long time since I've written anything here. So I'm going to ease in slowly and try to build up a head of steam again. The 16-months have been months of tremendous change in my life but I'm back and hope to a regular read for you once again, if you'll have me. So today, I thought I'd share the recipe that has been in big demand when I take a loaf of zucchini bread anywhere. Because I planted several zucchini plants in my garden, and it's been a great growing season in Grand Rapids, I've had an (0 comments)
eric webster: A fun night of live theatre- Heritage Theatr Group Presents "Woody Guthrie's American Song" @ GRCC Spectrum Theatre (Only 3 performances left)

Because I knew three people in the small cast, because I'm a big fan of Woody Guthrie's music, and because I've felt that over the years I've not attended live theater in Grand Rapids Mi nearly often enough, we went to see a delightful performace last evening. Staged in an intimate setting with large screen slide shows at either side of the state to provide context, this show was fun, moving, troubling, laugh out loud funny, well up with tears touching all at the same time. With a small but very talented cast telling stories about Woody's travels, passions (1 comments)

A week or so ago, I was having coffee with a friend on Saturday morning when she mentioned that she'd had the most amazing dinner the night before at Bloom in downtown Grand Rapids. She pulled the restaurant's website up and handed me the computer. I was immediately intrigued and impressed. It was a very creative menu that offered combinations that triggered my appetite. Finally last evening that same friend and I met for dinner. It was as delightful as I'd hoped it would be. I was greeted warmly and seated immediately. Gwen, our server, and I had a chance to (2 comments)
Floating Away My Stress at "Just Relax Floatation Grand Rapids, MI When my February Grand Rapids Magazine arrived there was an article entitled "Floating Free" which caught my eye. It was about a business a few minutes away from my house that has Floatation tanks (a.k.a. Isolation tanks or Sensory deprivation tanks). I'd heard of these tanks and seen them in the movies, but did not know of any in my area, so I was intrigued. The article said that these 8' long, 4' wide tanks have 12" deep water that contains 800-1000 pounds of Epson salt and is maintained at (4 comments)
eric webster: An amazing burger and hand crafted beer for $5.00 in Downtown Grand Rapids

Great Dining Values in Grand Rapids MI For the last month or so, my daughter, Kirstin has been joining co-workers and friends for a burger and a beer after work occasionally. She's come home with a big smile on her face, and it's not a beer generated smile! It's that they've found an amazing place where Monday through Thursday from 4-6 pm they can get a ½ pound Angus beef burger with fries and a pint of beer. And it's no domestic bottled swill, it's interesting, hand-crafted, Michigan brewed beer. The price? $5.00. How can you beat that?!?!?!
