Yesterday's breakfast - forgot to post - will compare to today's.

So true on the heavy batter - I missed the okra in all that!

Guacamole and chips

For @HungryChris

Awaiting a table at Houstons - G and T for Kat - Negroni for me of course!

It worked! He's going home with one.

and so it begins...

That reminds me of a great talking parrot joke - but it's not for mixed company!

Yes - larger orders are on half sheets

Bit of both.

From a certain angle I can see that - but it was a glorious beef rib!

These are the lengths we will go to in order to make a sale - fellow was quite excited by the idea that the EZtemper would allow him to make meltaways with a 'clean label' (he's been using compound). So Kat and I hit CVS and bought milk chocolate, coconut oil and mint essential oil. We have taken most of our stuff over to the venue - so we gestimated weights and made a batch of mint meltaways using the hotel hairdryer to melt the chocolate. Fortunately I have an IR thermometer in my purse. The fridge they brought up for the milk for my tea had the perfect ice cube tray!

Lunch meat in all its glory!

Will have to post food from lunch later - didn't post Tonight at the chocolate show there is a happy hour for vendors and then a preview - there is going to be a cakewalk.

Felchlin does have flavor

In line at Pecan Lodge

Next door to Kate's place is the Cake Bar Sharing a piece of hummingbird cake - won't have room for lunch

Visiting Kate Weisers shop in advance of the show. Kat - totally fan girling!

Grabbing a quick bite of breakfast in Hospitality Sweet - a little cafe inside a gorgeous old post office veggie fritatta with bacon veggie taco

Was very tender and quite delicious.

I was interested in the 1 vs 2 user option.

I use the Cacao Barry, Belcolade and I also got a whole bunch of bags of near date Felchlin - it's kind of shavings. A little stronger tasting than the Cacao Barry and Belcolade but not unpleasant in any way.
