Adam, SUCH a great post! Nice to get a good afternoon laugh and I really seeing your handsome face in the mix!Today, I am going to make the bagels so we can enjoy them over the weekend. My husband thinks I am nuts (because of Noah’s and Einsteins). Then I explained your move from NY to LA and the search for bagels, and now he thinks I am really nuts.My daughters, however, have been bugging me ALL week to make the bagels!

Thanks for this! If I hear any more BS about “gluten-free” I’m going toget violent. Really, it’s just marketing from the gluten-free industry.They want your money and are willing to lie to get it. “Gluten ispoison”. Yeah.

Instead of limes, try slices of Quince with salt when downing shots of tequila. Great combo. That’s how it’s been served in several bars I’ve been to in Mexico.

Dear AG, I just wonder how many people there are out there who look forward to your posts, laugh heartily, and never post a comment? I bet there are thousands who either don’t take time or don’t know what clever alias they would use! I loved your post and decided to wait no longer to let you know how much you “make my day”. PS – I love zucchini!
