Got a hankerin’ for Southern Italian food made with love?
Make your way to Guerriero's (www.guerrieros.com) in Morristown for a taste of the old country. This is authentic Southern Italian "momma making the gravy" restaurant. You will be bringing a few bottles of Nero d’Avola or a nice old Barolo for this rib-sticking, "memories are made of this" example of cooking. The restaurant is a BYOB like many in the immediate area.
A "family-friendly" gathering place-where, “everyone knows your name” is set in a historic old Morristown grocery store that retains the buzz and energy of its glorious history. The atmosphere is friendly and eager to help, from the gal taking names for the “many hour waiting list on a Saturday night” at the door to guys who fill the water glasses.
The menu reads well with delicacies gleaned from family recipes that according to the owner are "over 100 years old."
Highlights of my meal included three gigantic "roasted in gravy" meatballs served simply on the plate-rich and comprised of long cooked meats and sparked by another dollop of the excellent house - made meat infused gravy.
My wife enjoyed a special of the day comprised of a large portion of perfectly seared and pan roasted St. Peter's fish with escarole and savory white beans.
Take care not to overfill yourself on the always—refilled Semolina Grain bread basket or the excellent amuse-bouche - slow cooked white beans on toasts with meltingly soft, sweet roasted garlic, olive oil and herbs.
You'll want to make room in your stomach for the more ample portions of Guerriero’s family recipes including the pasta dishes, especially the Rigatoni ala Guerriero’s.
If you are still hungry their desserts do not disappoint with an excellent, “not too sweet”, Italian Ricotta Cheesecake as our choice. Coffee is served steaming hot and freshly prepared, short pulls of espresso are available.
The restaurant only accepts cash or checks, but several banks with ATM's are within a 30 second stroll.
Come prepared to eat well and leave full and happy.

We are—no other way to say it—obsessed by jeans.
Current fashion dictates they be skinny and sit at the hip. Or at least fit somewhere below the waist. A location that is generally geographically undesirable for many women in the throes of child birthing or post pregnancy.
Then we visited the Republic of Banana (http://bananarepublic.gap.com/) where jeans used to be an afterthought. B-R’s sister store Gap dominated the battle of the blues.
Altogether a different story today. Banana Republic is still a great spot for reasonable career clothing, but is now defining itself as a player in the contest for the perfect jeans.
These Banana Republics denims are not your daughter’s jeans. Nor are they your mother’s. They actually fit and we think they will fit you too.
Price-wise, they are all under $100. Nothing like the nearly $200 you’ll shell out for brands like Joe’s, True Religion, 7 for all mankind.
Try the classic “straight” jeans, which have a slight flare, come in a dressier dark wash, and a forgiving stretch. The flattering waistline is stylishly low, but not too far below the belt. They don’t drag on the ground – and they look good cuffed.
BR’s skinny jeans come in dark wash and are as close as many of us will get to the true low profile pants.
Whatever you do, don’t put them in the dryer!

Everyone knows that Twitter, Facebook and Blog are the must-have tools to make an impact with friends, customers, and clients. So why is one New Jersey company sticking to pen on paper and snail-mail to create relationships?
Robbinsville based ClientHooks,LLC (www.ClientHooks.com) specializes in the old fashioned practice of sending personalized greeting cards. The company makes personalized greeting cards for businesses and sales professionals to build customer relationships.
ClientHooks does exactly what the name says: it hooks clients and builds relationships with something as simple as a card.
“Old fashion thoughtfulness is hard to find these days,” said owner Melissa Denisco-Morici. “It’s just easier for people to send a text, e-card or e-mail but it just doesn’t have the same impact.”
Businesses who use ClientHooks can choose from an assortment of holiday and occasional card designs, vibrant envelope colors and seasonal stamps to ensure that they will be on their customer’s mind. Working with her own clients to design card campaigns is what Melissa enjoys the most about her job.
“Hands down the best part of my job are my clients. I can make my business fun and creative because I get to know their personalities and become more like a member of their in house marketing team.”
While e-mail and Twitter are quick, relatively simple and free, Melissa says customers still appreciate friendly gestures and personal greetings whether it’s in a holiday card, birthday
