Meet the North Jersey adoptable pets of the week, Ash and Hans

Meet the North Jersey adoptable pets of the week for Nov. 6. Each week, NorthJersey.com would like to highlight adoptable animals from local shelters and rescues. If you foster, work at, or volunteer with a North Jersey animal shelter or rescue and know of some animals who are in need of a loving fur-ever home, please send a photo, description and adoption information to amwallace@usatodayco.com to have your adoptable pets featured in the next edition.

This boy loves cuddles, being held, puppy kisses, and belly rubs. He often falls asleep right on top of you. Ash loves running around with his stuffed bunny and flipping it into the air.

All hail the Caesar salad; best ones in Westchester, Rockland

Fall is a time for soups, apple cider and pumpkin everything but for me, there's comfort in Caesar salad. Call it romaine romance: What's great about Caesars are that they're light enough to remind me of summer but substantial enough (especially when you add salmon or steak) to be a meal. There's also something comforting about the combination of crisp lettuce, creamy dressing and crouton crunchiness that leads to my Caesar state of mind. Whether you prefer yours with chicken breast and romaine lettuce, plumped with kale, or topped with anchovies (a divisive factor, I know), menus in Westchester and Rockland have an option with your name on it. What follows are a few of my favorites, keeping in mind I'm a no anchovies gal (though I'll get them mixed in.) More: 19 new restaurants open in Westchester Polpettina, Eastchester Sometimes, the original is hard to beat. Which is why the Caesar at Polpettina has my attention. While I wouldn’t call it entirely traditional — there’s nothing about this place that feels old-fashioned — it certainly embraces the philosophy of making every ingredient count. Here, chef/owner Michael Abruzese combines Parmesan, anchovy, lemon, Dijon, Worcestershire, olive oil, red wine vinegar and
