Brought My Lunch is a photo group to showcase the lunch you brought to work. The goal is to create an incentive to 1) bring lunch to work (instead of buying expensive, less healthy meals around the office) and 2) to bring better lunches to work, lunches that are worthy of not just eating, but photographing. So pack that lunch, break out your camera, and submit your photos to the group pool.

Excellent food, great restaurant. Could not stop eating, even though I was totally full. Highly recommended. More info on Kuma Inn, which is located in NYC's Lower East Side, at Yelp.
Great launch party at Arlene's Grocery in NYC's Lower East Side last week for Steve Kurutz's Like A Rolling Stone, a book about the strange life of a tribute band. The Rolling Stones tribute band The Stoney Rollers rocked the house. More pictures of the event can be seen at Maryanne Ventrice's Flickr page.
