‘Tis the season for a $4,000 non-fungible token of a pumpkin etched with Martha Stewart as a naughty nurse. SpOooOoky!!

BOO!!! It’s spooky season, and what could possibly be spookier than waking up to the news that Martha Stewart’s “Naughty Nurse” NFT is currently bidding at $4,083.72?

It all started when Stewart posted to her Instagram on October 19 about a “new and exciting venture!” in which the food superstar will be collaborating with “world-class designers, photographers, and artists as well as up-and-coming creators” to sell NFTs, or non-fungible tokens.

The patient who died, James Hamlin, and his wife Victoria frequently ate at one of the implicated Famous Anthony’s restaurants, according to the Roanoke Times.

Not because I’m a traditionalist, but because I am one of a rarified few who think green bean casserole is the best Thanksgiving side. Yeah, mac and cheese is great; the beans are better.

Never one to turn down a moment of vegetable-induced introspection, when last year’s exchange happened, … Read more
