  1. Or am I stalking him?
  2. Only Catholics would go to Brighton Beach and not get a knish OR go to Nathan's Excellent pics. I love the junior Busboys on the beach. Tell the Mrs. that I expect a blow by blow detailed report about the pea soup on Sunday.
  3. sigh, our numbers are dwindling
  4. Ahhhhh, another teacher I've been waiting for someone to share my summer break glee. I too went back to work today, half days twice a week. It was great to see my kids, and then great to leave at 1. Do you find your eating habits change when you aren't in school?
  5. What about egg?
  6. In Bethesda, Daruma sells a good variety of Sake and Tako Grill has a Sake Bar next to the restaurant.
  7. So can we pick a date? We should keep in mind RW and our picnic on Sunday. Mike, are you going to let us take over the place?

    Dinner! 2004

    The last of my squashblossoms in a squashblossom quesidillas raspberries and blueberries with cream raspberry shrub with lime seltzer
  9. I want Alton's kitchen too. If only I had a different occupation I also love Bobbie Fly's rooftop in Boy Meet Grill. It is a great space with an excellent view and gorgeous grill.
  10. Can you use any type of green tea or is there ochazuke tea?
  11. Hot pot, cold oil, food won't stick
  12. We're doing the upper part of the city. I am already planning, you just have to take another day off of work Did you find the whitefish I left accidentally? A couple of blocks down there is a park you can sit in.

    Dinner! 2004

    Pulled pork and mashed potatoes a few hours later I had a squashblossom quesadilla washed both down the raspberry shrub, lime fuzzy water and vanilla vodka
  14. we are the few, the proud, the chosen
  15. Welcome back! Glad to hear everyone survived the trip. Are the kids excited about anything besides the second most evil mouse in the US
  16. Slice it and top with goat cheese, boursin cheese etc. Make mini pizzas. Slice and top with tomato sauce and cheese
  17. Yes. It's a store, not a restaurant.
  18. Squash and I definitely benefited from Pan's experience. We would have managed, but I would have been stressed by the whole experience. It is a slight madhouse, but not unmanageable. Sorry you missed the pastrami, it was worth the trip. I wish we had hit a bakery other than Ferrara's. Russ and daughters had a babka, which I was going to get for babka, but it was beyond my price range
  19. And you went back for a second slice? We just figured that everything in the city is more expensive and we were in a high tourist area. I have been craving another slice ever since. I wonder if squash has eaten the slice I left in her fridge
  20. I hate cereal bags. It is beyond my capability to open a bag with out tearing it to far. grrrrrrrrr And plastic wrap. I hate the stuff.
  21. I just reread it and found all the typos. Well, grammer and punctuation was never my strong point! Yeah, when we ran into music man and changed-a-lot it was still raining but quickly cleared up. If the down pour had continued they would have had to go check the alumni page (although neither squash nor I have anything up there ) I forgot to mention that the celeb photo directly at eye level above our table was Mario Batali. Yeah, not a great combination. When we were standing in line the family of tourists before us ordered one. There was no way I was going to pass it up. It was a little too flat for my taste. I think the last fourth got tossed. I'm already thinking of our next adventure, if squash ever takes another day off. Monday was a rare treat for her. I thinking Gray's and Papaya's, for a hot dog compare and contrast. Then maybe over to Zabars and down to Dylan's Candy Bar. I am dying to get to Dylans. I can't believe I was in the city again and didn't make it there. But squash would probably have killed me if I dragged her up town just for a candy store.
  22. Think of the farmers who had to grow and pick your produce. Think of the rest of us who pay more for the whole thing 'cause you don't.

    Dinner! 2004

    Percitelli (a hollow spaghetti) with sautéed golden tomato, garlic, basil and Parmesan cheese.
  24. For DC it is
  25. Thanks for all of your kind words. We had a blast. By the way, I forgot to comment on the pizza prices. $3.50 for a freakin slice of plain!!!
