eG Foodblog: Foodman - A man with no plan...sort of

[nessa]

I just found leg of lamb for $1.99 a pound, a steal in this area, so I'm forcasting Elie's recipe for Lebanese Beans and Rice in my very near future. Thanks so much for sharing!

There's been some beef chuck in the freezer that I didn't really want to do anything with, so thank you thank you for the recipe!

do let us know how the beans turn out if you make it anytime soon.

I just had a slice of sweet potato pie courtesy of a coworker of mine. She makes them regularly and brings some with her all the time.

I have some chuck in the freezer as well...I know what will be on the menu next week .

Last meal in this blog:

Monday is typically leftover night. Tonight was no different, we had leftover beans and rice, as well as one whole pesto pizza from Saturday.

This means I had some time to make dessert, Baklawa (baklava).

It's been fun being the blogger this week and I hope it was to you.

Oh my goodness. Elie, that baklava is a tribute to your cooking prowess. Thank you so much for your blog. What a journey.

[FoodMan]

Fifi-

It really is much easier than it looks, many thanks for the compliment though.

Elie, I am sorry I was out of town while you were doing your blog -- Lebanon represents!

I remember wasting entire afternoons at my cousin's house over plates of those toasted cheese sandwiches and pots of very sweet black tea. A culinary match made in heaven, and still my favorite comfort food. Nice job with the blog!
