I did it. I got my Real ID. Phew!

Papercut. Ugh.

@tomcolicchio Number 14 needs to be a Top Chef city. I know, I know.

Chopped is back. Awesome!

10 days from Opening Day. I can't afford baseball this year.I helped so many small businesses and got almost nothing in return. Now I'm totally in the red, and the people I have helped are laughing all the way to the bank. Keep paying content creators thousands for ego strokes!

@donaldc58 You're not wrong at all.

@PhillyGrub The quality of the competitors is second to none! And 1 million dollars is on the line. And Padma is a lot easier to look at and listen than @#$%^ Guy Furry.

I'm not in love with #AmericasCulinaryCup yet, but we'll see how I feel after the 2nd episode.

You'd think the media outlet that gets so many news stories from me (given and stolen) would invite me to their little party? Nah. LOL!

@KarenFox29 Come over to South Jersey. Aunt Charlotte's in Merchantville makes nice buttercream eggs. But I understand. Easter isn't the same without Butter Krak!

I’m shook! I was looking for the Butter Krak at the Acme!! What in the Zitner’s is going on?!?!?

Good luck, Chef! ✌️

I'm here at this gorgeous Indian restaurant on the White Horse Pike in Stratford waiting for people to arrive and enjoy 25% off their check. If you've wanted to try a new Indian restaurant in South Jersey, today is the day. facebook.com/events/s/foodi…

...yesterday (24 hours ago), I ask a couple more clarifying questions and for a photo since I'm almost done the piece. Crickets! I know they saw the messages, IG tells you that. I get it, they might be busy, but so am I, and they're not paying me. It's basically a free ad. 🤦‍♀️

And people wonder why I complain. A new place reached out to me to feature them. Fine, I'll bite. I can't go, but I said I'll write a news article. I gathered some initial info, and they tried to rush me. I said, "I don't get paid for this. I'll do it ASAP." Couple days later...

Smoke and mirrors, my friends. Smoke and mirrors.
