IN DEFENSE OF A WIFE WHO CHEERS (AND A HUSBAND TOO....)

There are sentences in this article which will ring true for many people....

Kevin McCullough------For more than a decade, Taylor Swift’s love life was treated as a public spectator sport. Every breakup became a headline, and every new song became a clue. Millions of fans, many of them young women who grew up alongside her music, hoped she would one day find a man who would treat her as a lady. They wanted someone who would stand beside her as an equal, and who would stay. MORE AT In Defense of a Wife Who Cheers

LAUGHING COW GARLIC & HERB!

So it's no secret--quite a few of us love the Art of the Charcuterie Board. 

When a friend found herself hosting a visiting cousin unexpectedly sidelined on the trip back home due to the weather---she headed over to Shoprite after a quick rainy visit in her garden for cherry tomatoes and popped the "shot glass salami rose" in the fridge.

She writes: "I was pleasantly surprised by their fancy cheese section, the reasonable price points, and the variety. Normally, I walk right on by. I won't do that again.  But nothing surprised me more than the suggestion of a friend who insisted that I had to try the GARLIC AND HERB LAUGHING COW, paired with fried saltines on my next board.  He was right.".

Yes folks, LAUGHING COW GARLIC & HERB. Click on the photo. When even the "bona fide cheese snobs" (smile) are surprised, you know it's a winner...

SARCONE, THE DAILY HODL

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton-on-Hudson: our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship -- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.



A New York woman has been charged with draining nearly $670,000 in Social Security and pension benefits meant for a deceased relative......Federal prosecutors say 59-year-old Kimberly Cardella of Rensselaer allegedly wrote herself checks and signed them in her late mother-in-law’s name for nearly 17 years, reports NEWS10........

Says First Assistant U.S. Attorney John Sarcone, “The fact that this defendant openly signed her own dead mother-in-law’s name on checks that did not belong to her, in effect adopting her mother-in-law’s identity to obtain public funds intended for those in genuine need is simply shocking.”
