If you've ever lost a loved one to cancer, particularly a parent or grandparent, we look at how your risk increases and why genetic testing could be helpful. https://realdirtnap.substack.com/p/jareds-genetic-testing-journey-did-96e16 May 2025 13:10 +0000at://did:plc:p4dm2fec3er22fwj2p7avs4c/app.bsky.feed.post/3lpc42etstc2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/jaredpaventi.com/post/3lp7immcf2c2uYou can get Chinese dumplings and noodle soups anywhere in #CNY, but how many places make their own dumpling dough and hand-pull their noodles? Su Su Dim Sum does. It was our latest Dining Out review for @syracuse.com and @thisiscny.com. Go read it and drool a little bit.

Today begins a three-part series at Dirt Nap where I take you through my genetic testing journey to determine if I inherited genes for the cancers that have affected at least two generations of my family. https://realdirtnap.substack.com/p/jareds-genetic-testing-journey-did09 May 2025 12:18 +0000at://did:plc:p4dm2fec3er22fwj2p7avs4c/app.bsky.feed.post/3loqfussuhs2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/jaredpaventi.com/post/3lo6vsosw222dWe all experience grief differently when death impacts us, but what about people who work in death-related industries? How do they separate their days being around grieving from their everyday life? We ask a funeral director how he achieves work-life balance when death is always a phone call away. https://open.substack.com/pub/realdirtnap/p/every-funeral-has-a-director?r=gf5ee&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true02 May 2025 13:15 +0000at://did:plc:p4dm2fec3er22fwj2p7avs4c/app.bsky.feed.post/3lo6vsosw222dhttps://bsky.app/profile/jaredpaventi.com/post/3lo4ebgtefc2yIt took two weeks to get a reservation at Grotto in N. Syracuse and, when we got there, it was a roomful of regulars. And, we can see why. It's mix of red sauce and out-of-the-box, but not too crazy, Italian brings a little something for everyone.
