Cool off on a hot 4th!

Veggies, the latest addition to the hustle and bustle of Franklin, has opened its doors, serving all manner of smoothies made with fresh fruits and vegetables. Anyone tried one yet?

Down the street, Lily & Fig has homemade ice cream for sale, in vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry (sorbet).

Happy 4th of July, everybody - where better to celebrate than Brooklyn, where one in 7 Americans can trace their heritage at some point or another?
