We'll be meeting again at Biddle's, the old favorite, except for the pastries, hope you can get some first at Madeleine's.
Last week we found new sights in in off-the-beaten-track Swissvale, and its further-off sister, Swisshelm Park (long ago home of Wendy and Beth). We saw spectacular views of the Mon Valley and also discovered a brand new trail leading to our friends at Slagforce. At the charmant cafe Parisi (actually Italian), many, many things to consider:
- The Mamdani inauguration, something with hope in it, and Bernie too (though he has new mittens.)
- Viola Davis - anything she's in plus her new autobiography, especially on audio.
- Mexico City!
- Paris Baguette in Shadyside - maybe we'll go there soon?
- The Pittsburgh Center for Creative Reuse - has astonishing things, sometimes for 25 cents.
- Like, fabric-covered vintage buttons.
- Put matching socks in the wash with safety pins
- Listen to: Rachel Maddow's Burn Order
- Get a custom-sized, or any, mattress from the Original Mattress Factory
- Read: Theo of Golden, but since there are 173 holds on it at the library, maybe go to the endorsed White Whale bookstore
Resistance action of the week: Call/email Fetterman, McCormick, and Lee relentlessly to tell them to stop the Venezuelan invasion and planned others. Ask the Senators to vote yes on a Senate resolution coming very soon to block the president from taking further actions in Venezuela.
