The title and URL, in case you wondered

I live in the east end of the fine city of Pittsburgh. Most of my diversions are located right here in the east end, including my beer store, my wine store, my cigar store, my garden, my favorite bar(s), my bakery, and the best Italian food (La Cucina Flegrea) and hot dogs in Pittsburgh. I am generally schleping around the east end.

Re: coffee and the Times, these comprise my ideal morning ritual, now infrequently realized. There is nothing better than that first morning coffee, accompanied by the NY Times and the absence of interruption. These days, more accurately, my blog URL would be cryingbabyanddiapers.blogspot.com.
