A health and fitness blog: With an occasional food item

Shameless plug


For some friends down the street, Irvin and Colleen Rosenberg, proprietors of Brother's General Store.
In the 1000 block of Broadway on the east side.
Their place turns one year old Saturday. Go on in. Have some candy or ice cream. (Or both!) They also have homemade fudge, made by Colleen. Brother's also sells other gourmet food items, greeting cards and sodas.
They're also going to serve hot dogs, which can be topped with chili, on March 1.
If you're dieting, be forewarned.
But at the same time, do your little part to keep them in business. Enjoy!

P.S. Unrelated but interesting: The Dallas Morning News reports that in Japan, the Soladi Care Home is a new nursing facility for dogs. They offer around-the-clock monitoring by veterinarians and a team of puppies to play with old dogs to help maintain
their exercise. It costs 98,000 yen ($800) a month.

Well, care homes for dogs are a welcome innovation -- although we're pretty sure our staff will take pretty good care of us.
But: We definitely think that having a ton of puppies around doesn't make any sense. Do you really think you'll want a bunch of brats running around you at the old-folks home? No way.

My pastor says Brother's has THE BEST banana split. But I've never been... yet!
