The Egg Cream is an interesting (and tasty) drink. What’s most interesting about it is that there aren’t any eggs in it. There also isn’t any cream!

During our recent visit to Philadelphia, we stayed at Kimpton’s Hotel Monaco.
I wasn’t about to pay the hotel’s ridiculous $50 per night parking fee. Through the site BestParking.com, I was able to find an outdoor lot which cost a reasonable $15 for 24 hours.
