A WWWACKy-type Reunion

ByCourtney Pulitzer July 20, 2007September 27, 2026

After some trekking, on July 20th, former New Yorker (now San Franciscan) Josh Masur, current New Jersey-er Howard Greenstein and (guess who?!) Tery Spataro and I, found ourselves at the quaint Penelope’s Café on Lexington for some super yummy mac and cheese and snacks. Definitely check out the DailyEats video on this one! Cheesy topics included “the good ol’ days,” “global warming,” “politics,” “raising kids,” “kids at camp,” and “pita chips vs. real chips” with guacamole.
