Happy Halloween

This All Hallow’s Eve I do NOT have a new story for you guys to read because I haven’t been driving the cab lately thanks to grad school (thank you grad school, if you’re reading). But I do have a couple of links worth clicking away from FamousFatDave.Com for (click there to browse five borough eating tours for which I am NEVER too busy).

The first link is the inaugural episode of my Holiday Foods Series airing waaaaay over on the other side of the internet at HistoryChannel Dot Com. I’ll be taking you guys on a few different mini eating tours, each focussing on a different holiday food. In today’s episode I take the old Checker cab to Metro Candy Apple in Clifton, NJ whereupon I meet Ray (not impressed by me) and Weezie (LOVED me) while I learn the art of the candy apple.

Holiday Foods: Candy Apples

The second link is to herald the start of a new, bold, delicious blog called “The Crumb Catcher.” Packed with recipes and food reviews, Juree (a former customer on the wheels of steel/ my best friend’s sister) is going to take the food blog world by storm.

    What are you studying in grad school?

    Not quite sure. They call it a Master’s In Public Administration. Mostly it’s international economics, but when you get down to the bare bones of the program I’m really getting a Master’s in Getting My Parents Off My Back.

    Good luck with grad school.

    Interesting that you don’t really have a plan for grad school. A lot of people do that though — get in and figure things out while in school. I think that’s an expensive way to soul search though. But if it will give you clarity on what to do with the rest of your life, then sure, why the hell not.

    Miss your food posts, but hope you are doing well in school.

    Fight on!

    Hey Dave,

    Looking forward to our food tour on Thursday!

    If you ever want a mini Indian Food tour of NJ, I’d be happy to show you Edison’s best snacky places.

    P.S. I’m sure you’ll do well in school. You’re no stranger to hard work.

    hey Dave – great video. Hopefully more gigs will be going your way.

    Congrats on school – I’m headed back (with any luck) next year. I guess I’ve just been spinning my wheels.
