Tina Brown on shoes (scroll down to the last four paragraphs for it) gives me quite the chuckle. I must confess I'd like to join these New York warrior women just to wear the uniform. The only thing that stops me is, 'What would they think at Johnny's?'.

The secret is out, though some of us have known it for a long time. Buffalo is a great place, especially for art and architecture lovers as this Boston Globe article points out. But there's even more that didn't make it into the article, like the excellent restaurants, Just Pasta and Rue Franklin, the unique non-wings Buffalo taste treat, beef on weck, and a bonanza of truly wonderful people and great friends who stay committed to the city and its improvement. Don't hesitate to visit.

So now I know what the big deal is with the Soho Prada store (link via kottke.org, thanks Jason). I'm not sure my Buffalo lady friends and I fully appreciated it when we visited last week. Now that I know though, I'm ready for a return visit where I'll be sure to descend in the huge cylindrical glass elevator, and to try out the dressing room touch screens and moving mirrors allowing me to see my outfit from all angles. Or maybe not, older being wiser in this case.

Did you know I was not just a Google cook but a meme-making Mom? Well neither did I, but now that I've looked up the definition, I'm very proud. Here's the missing photo and caption from the print version to go along with the online Newsweek article, The World According to Google by Steven Levy. For at least one more day, my picture can still be found on newstands across the US and perhaps the world. Ah fame, however fleeting.
