Teaneck Store Owners See Two Decades Selling Pickles On Sticks, Penny Candy TEANECK, N.J. — A crunchy bite into a salty pickle often brings a wave of nostalgia over Leonia native and Teaneck resident Alex Sukiennik.

Sukiennik, 26, is hoping that the customers at her family's shop appreciate the value of pickles on sticks and penny candy that Picklelicious has been selling for two decades. "My mom’s Jewish and always had a connection to pickles on the Lower East Side," said Sukiennik, whose mother — Robyn Samra — opened the …

Montvale Soldier Supports Youth Soccer Teammate At NJ Devils Game MONTVALE, N.J. — Montvale native Sgt. Ryan Hawkins had more than St. Patrick's Day to celebrate on Thursday. While being honored as the "Hero of the Game," Hawkins got to see his childhood friend and New Jersey Devils player Kyle Palmieri on the ice during the game against the Minnesota Wild at Prudential Center in Newark. The two played on Montvale's travel team, Arsenal Soccer Club, during their youth.

Start-Of-Spring Snowstorm Not So Bad For Bergen, Passaic Start-Of-Spring Snowstorm Not So Bad For Bergen, Passaic Start-Of-Spring Snowstorm Not So Bad For Bergen, Passaic
Start-Of-Spring Snowstorm Not So Bad For Bergen, Passaic The original snow models for as much as a foot Sunday into Monday morning have changed now that a intensity of a start-of-spring storm headed toward Bergen and Passaic has lost some of its punch. "The Euro model went from giving one foot plus snows to 3 to 6 for some coastal areas and much less north and west," meteorologist Joe Cioffi said. Wind and rain was expected Friday, followed by a sunny Saturday -- with highs in the low to mid 40s -- before the white stuff starts falling, he said. North Jersey can likely expect 3 to 6 inches overnight, with some of it sticking, Cioffi sa…
