Ilyse and I saw The Clean House at The New Rep last night and I highly recommend it. It’s a stellar cast and a funny, poignant play. It only runs through next Sunday so hurry.

Tonight I was doing some research for a multinational client that needs to provide its young employees with advice and strategies for managing a global corporation. My searching led me to My Global Career, which provides timely info and a comprehensive set of resources and is written by Rusty Weston who blogs on Fast Company. Perusing the career resources I linked to Dave Lefkow’s blog on recruiting. And there I discovered…Bacon Salt!
Now I haven’t tasted this stuff yet but I may head over to Jake’s Dixie Roadhouse in Waltham to buy a bottle. I’ve been a vegetarian for about 18 years and the flavor I still miss is bacon. None of the vegetarian imitations I’ve tried does the job. Most of the time I substitute arugula, which was really good on a yukon gold pizza at Stone Hearth the other day. I’m considering myself warned by this review though.
Better than the seasoning was the story itself. I’m wishing the Bacon Salt entrepreneurs the best of luck and thanks for the reminder that good ideas can come from anywhere. My seven-year-old is full of them and I’m listening more intently than ever.
A little more than ten years ago I saw David Mamet’s Speed the Plow at the Lyric Stage and it remains one of the finest productions I have seen of any play anywhere. Phil Patrone was stunning and I became a fan - trying to see any production he was in. I later met him socially through my wife and he was one of the nicest people you could know.
Phil passed away this weekend at a very young age leaving his wife Betsy and 6-year-old daughter Grace. He will be terribly missed by colleagues and fans.
