Just had a cancelled conference call, so I'm pretty sure I'll be at the Kolachy Shop today at noon, too.

I've got short blonde hair and will be wearing Converse all-stars with flames. :)

Look forward to seeing some of you there.

Rats, my husband has the car...not to mention I'm still in my pjs (well appreciated day off) so I guess I'll miss the Kolachy swarming.

Happy Birthday Peppyre!

Had a nice spicy ranchero kolachy for brekkie today as I had a lunch appointment in Richmond.

Will try to make it to the lunch gathering next Tuesday though. I'm dying to try the soup.

'Twas tortilla soup today ... sorry you missed it (and we missed you!)! Only about a billion calories though ...

See you Tuesday

I was too late for Kolachies...had to settle for a bowl of chili...yummy but  :blink:

Serves you right for never bringing me one bitch !

Even though you publicly stated my wife is your new best friend for the white truffle for Xmas, do I get a simple dough ball with filling ? Nooooooooo. :angry:

A billion and a half calories, actually. The Tortilla Soup was damn good, but I had to keep tapping my carotid arteries every now and again to loosen all the cholesterol buildup. Worth every spoonful!

And the Chicken Masala is now my official second favourite kolachy, rapidly closing in on that Reuben.

Wish I could make it next Tuesday, but I'm doing the whole gradual entry preschool thing with Noah. Anyone up for kolachy two Wednesdays from now?

I can't believe this but I am seriously contemplating flying up from California so I can stand in line for a "dough ball with filling", and see what you are all going nuts about. I'm gonna call you guys on your shameless bluff.

I love cold Dinty Moore beef stew. It is like dog food! And I am like a dog.

How about Beef Bourguignon kolachy? They had a Christmas Ham kolachy... what about a Roasted Turkey kolachy with stuffing and cranberry sauce/jelly?

Worth the flight. Seriously. :smile:

What's tortilla soup like? Creamy? Garnished with tortilla crispies?

Creamy doesn't even cover it. Yes, garnished with crispy tortilla strips. Tomato base. Black beans. Sour cream. Keith is better qualified to enlighten you on the exact ingredients. I only remember what I put into my own version, but I wouldn't want to compromise their recipe. :rolleyes:

And wow... my cookies made your obsession list! :wub: I do have leftovers. You interested?!

OMG - its official

egullet is pushing every OCD button of mine. I have just talked my brother into driving down from the North Shore to pick me up from dowtown and drive me down to yaletown so I can one of these little guys.

Deborah - when you are saying that this is their "last day" - I am guessing that you mean their last batch of the day. Otherwise this adds a layer of urgency to my OCDness that will send me into overdrive.

No, I mean it's the weekly special, and it's the end of the week!!!

Don't worry, the other ones are great as well, though! and the Navy Bean soup has some still-al-dente beans, but on the whole is just yummy. Nice sausage in there.

Just had my first Kolachies - beef&cheese, rueben, and chicken club (shared). All I can say is "aaaahhhhhhhhhh"

Now I can curl up and sleep the rest of the day. On the floor of my cube that is...

It is just a sympton of my OCD. I just went and washed my hands for exactly 45 seconds in 45 celsuis temperature water and then used 4.5 paper towels to ensure they were COMPLETELY dry.

Seriously - I am just a technology bumbler
