Saint Anthony of Padua, pray for us!

OK, OK. Friday the 13th. A full moon, The HONEY MOON®, so-called, no less. World Cup 2014, including Spain v. Netherlands. A potential Stanley Cup coronation. United States Open golf. Yet we cycle back to the Feast Day of Saint Anthony of Padua. Patron of horseys, miracles and lost stuff, like lost causes, lost people, lost anything.

In the heart of Hollywood…NOT West Hollywood

Today, they are gone, mostly, and fortunately the greatest fast-food sandwich extant has survived intact, with no threat to its status. Waffle friesz #1 alwayszzz, too! Continue reading
