One Got Fat
I don’t know what to say about this video other than it is truly bizarre. But it’s also hilarious, surreal, and really scary. It’s like the Twilight Zone for bicyclists. I’m sure I’ll have nightmares. It has nothing to do with urban simplicity other than its main subject is about bikes. It’s a 15 minuteContinue reading “One Got Fat”

Sweet Potato Sandwich Bread Recipe with Photos
This is a variation of classic potato bread…the difference is that I substituted sweet potatoes for the white potatoes, used olive oil instead of butter, honey instead of sugar, and incorporated some whole wheat flour to give it a little flavor and texture. I’ve made this bread in the past (or at least some variationContinue reading “Sweet Potato Sandwich Bread Recipe with Photos”

This is the last pepper I am going to purchase…
…at least for this season. I have 28 pepper plants (6 varieties), among other things, growing in my super-teeny Allentown “front yard.” Some are already starting to flower…very exciting. Urban Simplicity.

MP Bike
I saw this pseudo-retro MP Bike on Elmwood Avenue the other day…it’s the second or third I’ve seen in the past couple months. The bike is made by Felt Bicycles (click here for a direct link to the MP Bike). It looks like it weighs a ton, but then again who am I to talkContinue reading “MP Bike”

A Few Mahatma Gandhi Quotes
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver. Let everyone try and find that as a result of daily prayer he adds something new to his life, something with which nothing can beContinue reading “A Few Mahatma Gandhi Quotes”
