This is a follow up to my previous post about family farms and CSA's in the Pittsburgh area. It's a little late as our last allotment came at the end of November but I thought I would write a few thoughts on the experience. First, I have never eaten so much fruit in my life. We consistently got at least two fruits every week. Strawberries, blueberries, cantaloupe, peaches, apples, raspberries! If you want to make sure you get plenty of fruit in your diet this is a great way to do it. You get a nice variety as the summer progresses. |

The weather data for my weather station has not been updated in about 2 months, but there really is a good reason for this. We got a new roof. So how does getting a new roof mess up getting up-to-date weather data to my page on Weather Underground? It goes something like this: |

I have a fireplace and love to use it in the winter, however I don't have the space to store wood over the summer in order to properly dry it without it looking like it is an eyesore. So what do I do? I turn to craigslist and search for firewood. Last year I burnt a face-cord worth of wood and it was great wood. Very dry and burned extremely well. I tried to find the number of the person that I ordered from last year to get some more wood this year but I could not locate it. |

Today I decided to close my blog on VOX and consolidate it down to just here on PittsBLOGh.com. I hope that this will be a catalyst for to start blogging a little bit more, but that is doubtful considering my last attempts at this. |

This was my second year attending Wings over Pittsburgh, an annual air show hosted by the 911th Airlift Wing each May at the Pittsburgh IAP Air Reserve Station. |

It's pretty sad when a sports bar doesn't know how to work their own TVs. Buffalo blues located on S. Highland in Shadyside has always been a fun place for me to watch Steeler games. They have good bar food, but nothing that my wife really enjoys. There's a large variety of bottled and draft beer. And they do a good job picking out their waitresses. |

Location(s)PNC Park Pittsburgh, PALast week Bob invited the wife and I to attend a Pittsburgh Pirates game since he won some tickets from a charity event that he went to. I have to say it was a gorgeous evening at PNC Park which always makes the experience much better.

I have been sitting here watching Food Network all day and have been getting this HUGE hankering for some real honest BBQ. Does anyone know of a good, no....great, local BBQ joint? I am talking anywhere in the Pittsburgh area. I just want some good BBQ. I don't care if it is ribs, chicken thighs, biscuit, or pulled pork. I need a fix and don't know where to find it with out firing up the barbie myself! |

To go along with my post, The Hunt for Made in America, in believing that we should doing more locally, I have decided to attempt to eat as much as possible from local restaurants. What do I consider local restaurants? I am talking your one-of-a-kind greasy spoon diner, the neighborhood pizzaria, a local watering hole, even the fancy-schmancy places on Mt.

Location(s)Juliano's Restaurant 5476 Steubenville Pike McKees Rocks, PA, 15136I have often driven past Juliano's Restaurant & Pizzeria while traveling Route 60, and I always think, "We should try that place sometime." Since my hubby & I have been trying to eat at local restaurants - a challenge out this way - we decided to give Juliano's a try last Thursday night. It's a short drive from Robinson Town Center - maybe 5-7 minutes out Route 60 South (Steubenville Pike) in McKees Rocks. |
