Monday Links #2

September 22, 2008

Well folks here I am again on a Monday morning in Germany. I can’t tell you if the day is a nice one, because I honestly haven’t seen it yet.

I have been in the Frankfurt international airport for the last twelve hours…and I don’t even have a ticket.

More about that later, but for now, here are this weeks links.

David DeFranza at Wisebread gives us “5 Easy Recipes Perfect for the Traveling Chef“. Aside from the obviously common batch of noodles, I haven’t actually made any of these things. I have been going for homemade vegetable soup, and a jalapeno/sausage delecacy I am calling “Josages”.

The new york times really shows us what NOT to do for our vacation. This concept of moving your personal hotel room into the wilderness is frankly a stupid one. Leave it to the American corperate world to instigate this mess. Anyways, check out this profile of “Canvas Chic” on the NYTimes

A man is walking around the world. Not a new concept, but he’s got some good ideas. One of his ideas which I have been eternally thankful for the opportunity to emulate is making sun-tea as your primary drink (cold water + tea bag + sun) instead of plain old water, and/or soda. Check him out at http://www.walkingman.org

Warning: if you are a romantic like me, this article is very depressing. A survey conducte by Sheraton Hotels has shown that 35% of those surveyed would pick their blackberry cell-phone over their spouce. 35%!!! That either means people don’t love each other, or the crack in the crackberry isn’t fictional after all. Read the depressing details here.

Well that’s it for this week…my battery will die in about 45 seconds so I’m going to hit publish. I’ll post more soon!
