Whiskies are a Go-Go!
queenseyes
Here is a whisk which is not only cute, it's functional. This wide-eyed egg comes with a small pair of feet so you can stand the utensil on the counter as you prepare a dish of food. How many times have you looked around the kitchen for a whisk that's buried in a kitchen drawer? Whiskie takes care of that problem. We found the Whiskies ($3.50) displayed in an egg carton (how cool is that) at Delish!, 802 Elmwood Avenue. 716.881.2022

This special edition five year Cave Aged Gouda is imported from Holland. The cheese is made of pasteurized cow's milk. Even cutting a sliver of this special gouda is an experience. It literally flakes off from the block and shows off a variety of aged colors that bring the most unusual flavors to the pallate. Think about it... this cheese sat in a cave for five years. Like a fine wine, the flavor has really come into its own. Perfect along with apples, or any of your favorite fruits. …

What's the answer?

What do you get when you cross the 1848 building facade of the old Illuminating Gas Company with the new Blue Cross/Blue Shield office building? They are busy building, and people are busy talking. We drove down to the site the other day to take a look at the old facade. We stood in front of it trying to imagine the new build in the backround. One thing is for sure, this 'unique' re-use will surely turn some heads along with a few eyebrows. Related Post: 1300+ Healthcare Workers Move to Downtown Buffalo
