House Intent On Modernizing Pennsylvania Liquor Laws

Posted on 10 February 2011. Tags: ,

HARRISBURG PA -  While a battle to privatize Pennsylvania’s liquor stores gets most of the media attention, efforts to modernize other parts of the liquor code are moving along as well.

The state House Liquor Control Committee unanimously approved a measure Wednesday that removes some restrictions on alcohol sales by restaurants, bars and taverns.  The bill, HB148, is only the first part of a larger movement by the committee to update the state’s alcohol laws.

  • Featured Post: Apple Cake with Streusel Topping February 21, 2012
    The recipe had me at streusel. Because I haven’t perfected frosting a cupcake, let alone a cake, a streusel is a good, probably even better alternative. Instead of buttercream or cream cheese frosting, I like topping cupcakes with streusel, which is a mixture of flour, butter, sugar and sometimes nuts. It forms a light, sweet, […]

    The pork belly is prepared Filipino Style.  First, simmered with salt, bay leaves, garlic and onion, then deep fried over a low heat.  Right before serving, the pork belly is fried again at a higher heat – there is something truly magical when you’re left with the most tender pork belly and super crispy skin.

    Tikka Masala is a flavorful silky sauce with cream and tomatoes. Not too hot, but rich and creamy. What was remarkable was that it was much easier to make than I thought. And some gross pantry insufficiencies lead to wonderful discoveries in substitutions–which I now call essential ingredients!! […]

    I hope you all enjoyed Valentine’s day in whatever fashion you chose to celebrate! My day was mostly spent tinkering around the house at a rate of zero productivity. It has never actually occurred to me to celebrate Valentine’s day in my adult life, mostly because I experience a generally adverse reaction to the idea […]

    During the month of January, my wife and I did the Whole30 challenge. The challenge is very similar to our current diet, but without any dairy, white potatoes, white rice, or sweeteners like honey and maple syrup. I felt great all month, but I did struggle with maintaining my weight (I’m a pretty skinny guy). […]
