Irv Homer, RIP

Irv Homer died a couple of days ago. He was a talk radio host for many years in Philadelphia, not to mention a bar owner and entrepreneur. I first heard him on the air in the early 1990’s on station WWDB, an FM talk radio station at the time. Irv wasn’t afraid to speak his mind and when DB, as the station was known, went to a music format he was sorely missed. Irv went to a few other stations after that. I had the pleasure to meet him a few times. He was an irascible character but one with a healthy dose of common sense.

So, rest in peace, Irv.

Bucks County Designer Show Home

The Bucks County Designer Show Home offered me and several other authors the opportunity to hold a book signing during their annual event. It was held in Solebury and featured several buildings, all creatively decked out by various designers. Here are a few photos of the outdoor spaces which were impressively done.

Plus, the admission fee helps support a local hospital, certainly a worthy cause. My thanks to the team that puts this event together. I appreciate the opportunity to meet book lovers as well as to enjoy the show home.

Jules Thin Crust (as in Pizza)

If you want to control your carbs, go gluten free, and still enjoy excellent Pizza, head to Jules Thin Crust in Doylestown, PA, USA. This place serves the best thin crust pizza I’ve had to date, and that’s no small sample. Stroll up to the counter and here’s what you’ll see:

jules_counterThere is a wide variety of pizza on display, everything from a “Greek Salad” to “meat lovers” to “margarita” and so on. Let’s take a closer look at two of my favorites.

jules_pizza1Sort of your regular sausage on the left and meat lovers on the right. Here’s two more.

jules_pizza2The one on the left in the photo above is three cheese, extra garlic, and sauce. On the right you have that sort of Greek Salad one. I’ve never had anything but excellent food and service here at Jules. The ingredients are stunningly fresh, the crust cracker thin yet flavorful, and to have only two pieces is a crime. So, triple or quadruple your order! For fun here’s a look at the seating area.

jules_seatingPlenty of room for your family and friends inside as well as outside now that the weather is getting better. Finally, check out the menu. I’m sure you’ll find something you like.
