Dear friends,
Since we’re not currently able to dine-in at our favorite restaurants, I will be reviewing take-out experiences for a while, and I want to preface this with some guidelines for take out / delivery in these weird times.
First, please be patient with the restaurants. The volume of take out is all new for them and they are adjusting.
Second, plan ahead if you want to order out. They may not answer the phone right away so you may need to start calling early. The same applies to online ordering. Just be ready for things to not work perfectly. I recommend starting around 2-3 pm for dinner takeout.
Jude’s Old Town seems to have worked out their takeout schedule, because our latest order was ready right on time. Although we did call at 3 pm for a 6 pm pick up.

Most of us tend to think of air pollution as something that occurs outdoors where car exhaust and factory fumes proliferate, but there’s such a thing as indoor air pollution, too. Since the 1950s, the number of synthetic chemicals used in home products have increased drastically, while homes have become much tighter and better insulated. As a result, the EPA estimates that Americans, on average, spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, where the concentrations of some pollutants are often two to five times higher than typical outdoor concentrations.
Luckily, there are many ways to reduce indoor air pollution. We all know that buying organic and natural home materials and cleaning supplies can improve the air quality in our homes, but there are several other measures you can take as well.
