Serious Cheese: What Happens When a Curd Nerd Becomes Lactose Intolerant?

I second Digestive Advantage; it changed my life. The take-with-meals pills are dodgy at best, and I never dared eat dairy away from home. With DA, I take one in the morning and that's it...years of deprivation are over. I can have sour cream, eggcreams, the works. I could not recommend this product more highly.

First Look at DBGB, Daniel Boulud's New Brasserie on the Bowery

I find it hilarious that the decor of this joint is supposed to pay homage to the restaurant supply stores that used to populate the Bowery. Force 'em out, then go all damp-eyed with nostalgia for what you have helped destroy.

Attend the Gina DePalma Fundraiser on May 18 to Support the Cowgirl Cure Foundation

As someone whose husband survived five cancer operations, I always find that "fight" metaphor disturbing, Ed, as the corollary is that those who don't beat it somehow weren't courageous or strong enough. That said, good luck with this very worthy cause.
