David Bowie - Young Americans (Serious Moonlight)

Gregory Grookett thinks David Bowie has a great sound and is also great live. Seen him years ago and it was one of the best sounding concerts I have ever been to. This is also one of my favorite songs of his.

Gregory Grookett on Devon and Blakely

Hello Gregory Grookett here to tell you about Devon and Blakely located at 18th and Market street in center city Philadelphia. This place hit the spot today as it was below freezing out and not knowing the area and it's eateries I was freezing from walking. Didn't want anything from a nasty hotdog cart or any fast food. So this place had a sign out front that said sixteen varieties of soup daily and was crowded so I knew it had to be good. So upon entering I was delighted to see that they also had many great sandwich and wraps available as well as a build your own salad station that looked like it was to die for.

I went with the chicken cob wrap that was very hearty and looked so good and upon eating it was every bit of what I expected it to be. Not lunch meat at this place real chicken breast with some smoked bacon and guacamole and romaine lettuce. Delish! I also went with the chicken noodle soup and this lunch hit the spot as I warmed up eating my lunch in there dining area.

The meal came to $14.35 which I thought to be rather reasonable considering it's center city and most everything is expensive. This place will get another visit from Gregory Grookett again and if your in the area I suggest you give them a try for a quality quick lunch. I was completely satisfied and as you can see here below even had some to take away and have as a snack later.


This was my other half of the wrap in a doggie bag to take with. This place is a little reasonably priced eatery in mid town Philadelphia!

Gregory Grookett / Heroes Among Us--Hero the Dog!



Hello Gregory Grookett and I want you to know if you are a true animal lover like me you will love this story about Hero the rescue dog. He is such a smart and brave dog for having the instinct to do what he did and save this ladies life. The story that he himself got rescued is equally amazing and I am so happy for him that he was taken in and is now in loving hands and helping others. This was a great ending to both of these stories. The fact that the lady made a full recovery and also that Hero ws saved and has people who love him now.





Get your tissue box ready this is a sad and happy story. This is one of the reasons that I will always be amazed at the capabilities of dogs!
