[Highland Park] Winter thieves at it again
by Kimberly Latta 08 Jan '11

08 Jan '11

Dear Neighbors: Today a black man, about 6 feet tall and wearing a bright red hoodie, very aggressively banged on my door. When I finally made it downstairs to answer him, he asked if I wanted him to shovel my walk. I said no. A few minutes later, he and my snow shovel were no where to be seen. The thief left the cheap shovel that he had been carrying, which hardly mitigates the crime. The shovel he stole was an ergonomic one, quite oddly bent in order to make lifting heavy snow easier. It is the only shovel that my partner, who has a very bad back, can use to lift the snow. I had hidden it well up on my porch, so that it could not be seen from the street. Only someone who comes directly onto my porch, which is gated, would be able to see it. Of course it was stupid of me not to take it in immediately as he was standing there on my front porch--and dumb to leave it out there in the first place. Still, one wants to be able to trust people. So if a man carrying an ergonomic shovel shows up at your door and asks if you want him to clear the walk, you might wonder where exactly he got the shovel. Also, please do not leave anything on your porch, even if it can not be seen from the street. The thieves are out there and they are looking to take what does not belong to them. I know that not everyone who comes to the door asking to shovel the walk is a criminal. Still, it is precisely because this sort of thing does happen that I will not be giving anyone who comes to my door a job clearing snow. -- Dr. Kimberly S.

Does anyone know someone who would clean our house in Morningside? Preferably someone you have personal experience with. Our last housecleaner disappeared off the face of the earth, I guess. Judy

Howdy Neighbors, I just wanted to let people know that we are working to expand our delivery service. We now delivery to a few elderly types that can't get out. I would like to focus on this aspect of the business in 2011. I believe that it is a market pretty much untapped in the East End in general. Here are some of the aspects of what we would provide. - Delivery service is absolutely free...(taking for granted you don't live in Wexford) Highland Park, Shadyside, East Liberty, & Morningside preferably. - There is a 30.00 minimum per order.....cash or check preferred, but we can easily do debit or credit over the phone. - We can deliver almost anytime, and on short notice. Call me with your needs and we will find a way to make it happen. - We deliver everything in the store- groceries, rock salt :), sandwiches, cigarettes, ice, gelato, biscotti, etc. - I have told people the best thing to do if interested in deliveries is get to know what we carry and that would make it easier. We will gladly help you over the phone in any way to guide you through. (30.00 can add up quick). - Please don't hesitate to call me or email me with any questions. Having a neighborhood store that is here when you need it and that delivers is designed to make your life easier.

[Highland Park] Bryant Street Market 2 FOOT Sandwiches
by Robert Collins 08 Jan '11

08 Jan '11

Hey Ya, We will now be taking orders for 2 foot sandwiches for your Steeler playoff revelry. We can make these 2 footers anytime as long as we have 24 hours notice. They will be made on 2 foot baguettes from Allegro Hearth. They will always be made the day of pick up. I made one the other night and took it home and it was the bomb. They will be made to order with up to 3 meats and 2 cheeses, lettuce, tomato, and onion.(Condiments if needed). Pricing is 14.95 per hoagie. Call or email me for more details. I will also be making sandwich trays. These are already made sandwiches on a tray, just uncover and serve. There are 10 sandwiches on a tray for 30.00....3 bucks a sandwich is totally reasonable. They will be made on fresh Allegro Hearth kaiser rolls and are also made to order. These can also be made anytime, 24 hours notice is appreciated, so we can order the bread. If we have the rolls or baguettes on hand, they can be made on the spot. We use only Boars Head Meats and high quality cheeses, not that low end stuff you get at GE. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Rob Bryant Street Market 5901 Bryant Street Pittsburgh PA 15206 Phone: (412) 661 8720 Hours: Mon-Fri 9 AM to 7 PM Sat-Sun 9 AM to 5 PM
