Man found dead in hair salon in Harlem
A man was found dead in a Manhattan hair salon on Saturday, with police investigating whether he was trying to burglarize the shop.
When the owners of Harlem Natural Hair on St. Nicholas Ave. near W. 148th St. in Harlem arrived at work Saturday around 9 a.m., they found their business trashed, police and sources said.
At the bottom of stairs leading to the salon’s basement, the hair stylists found the man unconscious with head and neck injuries, authorities said.
Emergency responders declared the man dead at the scene. A medical examiner found the man’s injuries consistent with a fall.
The man’s identity was being withheld pending family notification.
Salon owners closed up shop (above) around 8 p.m. Friday, more than 12 hours before the man’s body was found, said law enforcement sources.
Do you love bran muffins with your morning coffee or tea? It’s often my go-to breakfast on the go. So it was a total delight to discover that bran muffin batter could also be baked in a loaf pan. My friend had been telling me about this recipe she had culled from a number of other recipes. The first time I tried it, I added too much water and it was what I call a happy accident. The loaf was as moist as could be and lasted four days. It was as good as the first day it was baked.
This reinterpreted breakfast favorite looks as enticing as a tea loaf. Make sure to toast the wheat bran so it adds an extra depth of flavor. I have tried it with dark or golden raisins, and both work well. The pureed raisins add a sweet addition so less brown sugar is needed. Always checking to see if my tasters agreed, I dropped slices off to a few of my muffin-loving pals. The resounding response was: “When can I have the recipe?”
The good news is that this is simple to prepare. It is now a weekly request by my husband. He likes it for breakfast, and an afternoon snack with coffee or tea and even for a sweet after dinner. Hope you enjoy this.
