Meatloaf Stuffed with Spinach and Red Bell Pepper

Meatloaf Stuffed with Spinach and Red Bell Pepper
from Simply Recipes by Elise

We love meat loaf in this house. My father found this recipe in an old issue of Bon Appetit and made it it the other day. It was really quite good, and pretty too (as pretty as meatloaf can be) with the stuffing of red bell peppers and green spinach.

NYC Tourists Get More Neurotic

NYC Tourists Get More Neurotic


Perhaps trying in a meta way to turn NYC tourists into your dime-a-dozen NYC neurotic , the city's tourists have recently been under a barrage of criticisms and nagging from the overbearing press about what not to do. The most recent example comes from AM New York whose front page featured the html-unfriendly hed: They [heart] NYC. Turns out NY has seen more tourists this year than ever before, an approx. 44 million.
Among the exhortations given in the ensuing coverage is the one found above by Chuck Bennett. This, however, is but the most recent onslaught of to don'ts offered. Recently, the NYT's Seth Kugel warned tourists where not to go while Lonely Planet recently advised tourists to mask their maps in classic New York books like Catcher in the Rye.
It's only a matter of time before true New Yorkers will be approached on the street by panicky tourists asking, "Did I do this right? What about this? Is my bag to big? Do my shoes make me look like a tourist?" and on that day, any difference we fancied distinguished us from them, will have been thoroughly and irrevocably erased.
