40% of food in the United States goes to waste — and incidents like this don’t help!
Sanitation Department workers in New York City threw out thousands of dollars worth of fresh produce earlier this month because it was obstructing the sidewalk.
Read more about the incident here.
Happy Post-Halloween, everybody!
Did we all survive? Feeling good? Feeling strong? Excellent!
From all of us here at the angelorensanzfoundation, thank you for a delicious season of jack-o-lanterns, candycorn, and slightly sinister silliness.
Cancelled last year as a result of the devastation of Superstorm Sandy, the New York City Halloween Parade of 2013 returned and dominated a route from Sixth Avenue and Spring Street to 16th Street. Greenwich Village was a storm of gaudiness and ghoulishness, celebrating one of the favorites of holidays and the parade’s 40th anniversary this year.
And in case you made it to Spring St and couldn’t exit the subway because of the hoards of people gathered to watch …
…we found pictures!
Have a happy Turkey-month everybody!
Now go back to your hoards of candy and sugar yourself silly. That’s my plan, anyway.
