Here's what's cooking around town today...
No one gives perk to jerks - whether it's at your local bar or you favourite butcher shop, being a regular has its benefits. [Globe and Mail]
With everyone in a tizzy about swine flu, the common cold can still sneak up and grab you by the face. Some foods and vitamins to ward it off - or at least make it less horrible. [National Post]
But if you'd really like to get sick (no, I don't know why - big event that you're dreading, too much stress at work...) apparently eating lots and lots of candy will do the trick. [National Post - The Appetizer]
Back in the day, everyone was sweet on Elvis. Now he's made of cake. Seems fair. [Sweet Things]
Ah, olden times, like the 30s, when you could publish blatant racial stereotypes in a newspaper ad for spaghetti and people thought it was cute. [Torontoist]
A recap of the wonderful OLA dinner celebrating Day of the Dead. [Sabrosito]
Harvesting ginko nuts - good, stinky fun. [Not Far From the Tree]
And in Food For Thought - Halloween candy pie, the popularity of Farmville, and Miracle Whip douchbags. [Save Your Fork]
Also - there's a new issue of City Bites available - not sure what's in it because their website hasn't been updated, but it's out there for the readin'.
