For the past few weeks, Main Street's Hero's Welcome has housed a popular pop-up featuring fresh baked goods and beverages. Now, however, the pop-up has settled in, and has even settled on a name: Banister Provisions. Banister is the project of restaurateurs Monroe Webb and Myra Maston, and it is making itself at home along the side of Hero's Welcome's 3917 Main St Tudor-inspired exterior.

Hi I never post on here but I in case you wondered where I stood I’m here to say I firmly believe Law & Order: SVU is an abysmal snooze fest this season.

I think the photo of Cardiff in the cleaning cart is a joke because she’s in a CART. A CART-IFF. Am I right? @taylornation13
