"The secret is a wondrous concoction of red jalapeno chili peppers, vinegar, garlic, sugar and salt. It is simple and pure, with no water or artificial colors, and has a depth of flavor to match its unmistakable heat. For many, myself included, it's one-stop shopping in a squeeze bottle. But that's my opinion. I encourage you to give it a try and see for yourself. And I'll be waiting to greet you when you join the club."

Mets Fans Set World Crocheting Record



Over 400 fans at Citi Field set the Guinness World Record for most people crocheting in one place yesterday, hooking together blue and orange yarn in honor of the Mets. National NeedleArts Association co-chair Lily Chin told the Daily News, "I thought this was a great team effort, because baseball is a team sport. I thought it was brilliant."

At the 4th annual "Stitch 'n' Pitch" event, 427 people crocheted for 15 minutes straight, setting a new world record. Unfortunately, the Guinness World Records website couldn't tell us what the previous record had been, or if any previous gathering had even warranted a record.

Last year, Grub Street Philadelphia reported that 25-year-old Rita’s Water Ice was aiming to open 600 stores by the end of 2009, so it’s no surprise that according to QSR Web, the company will open three locations in Manhattan. The first will open February 14, when all visitors between the hours of 11 a.m. and 11 p.m. will get a free regular-size Italian ice (the first 100 customers will get a year’s supply). Rita’s traditionally does these giveaways on the first day of spring (according to Wikipedia, 1.2 million cups were distributed last year in a ten-hour period). In addition to Italian ices made on site, Rita’s serves frozen custard, “gelati” (actually a combination of ice and frozen custard), and blended custard-and-water-ice drinks. QSR Web doesn’t give an address for the first location, but a Rita’s Facebook page reveals it’s at 2486 Broadway near 92nd Street."
