The Grit restaraunt is one of a kind. Any meat-lover will be amazed that such delicious food is all vegetarian! I always have a batch of the Grit yeast gravy in my fridge, as it tastes good on absolutely everything.

I love to have this book lying around the house, so I can pick it up for a moment and browse through a new category of recommendations. If you are ever in a bind about what to read next, this book will not let you down. The only decision to make is which one to read first. This is a very entertaining book for all book lovers.

This story of becoming a father, by the hilarious sex advice columnist, Dan Savage, is full of information and ruminations on such subjects as open adoption, gay/lesbian parenting, Christian fundamentalists and techno music. The humor and intellect with which he approaches an intensely emotional process and controversial subject is inspiring and refreshing. While America debates gay marriage and its impact on the family, this book is a testament to queer parents everywhere.
