I'm home with a wrenched back - oy - and it's fast comfort food for me: Frozen "Ethnic Gourmet" saag paneer, doctored with some Patak's lime pickle. Everything tastes better with valium, I swear!

I'm a canning clean freak because there's no sorry large enough to cover the, "Oops! I gave you botulism" regrets.

An awesome turkey club sandwhich (a craving I got from watching an episdoe of The West Wing of all things...)

Two toasted slices of flax bread, turkey, ham, crispy bacon, red juicey tomato, romaine lettuce, vidalia onion, mayo, spicey brown mustard, dill pickle spears, wow oh wow, totally hit the spot.

He don't mix meat and dairy,

He don't eat humble pie,

So sing a miserere

And hang the bastard high!

a goodly wedge cut off the Italian coffe torrone I got for Christmas (Torrone artigianale al caffe).

I'm trying to eat just a portion each day...

"Under the dusty almond trees, ... stalls were set up which sold banana liquor, rolls, blood puddings, chopped fried meat, meat pies, sausage, yucca breads, crullers, buns, corn breads, puff pastes, longanizas, tripes, coconut nougats, rum toddies, along with all sorts of trifles, gewgaws, trinkets, and knickknacks, and cockfights and lottery tickets."

oh yes, just "not too sweet" enough for me to usually eat five before I realized what I've done

yesterday: sunny-side up egg with the perfect running yolk with onion confit on toast

today: the pineapple pound cake I made with way too much butter

from overheard in new york:

Kid #1: Paper beats rock. BAM! Your rock is blowed up!

Kid #2: "Bam" doesn't blow up, "bam" makes it spicy. Now I got a SPICY ROCK! You can't defeat that!

Do not expect INTJs to actually care about how you view them. They already know that they are arrogant bastards with a morbid sense of humor. Telling them the obvious accomplishes nothing.

I just rolled out some fettuccini and tossed it with shitakes and brown butter.

Yesterday I roasted a case of red peppers for soup. Some of the peppers were a lttle dry around the edges, so I would pop them in my mouth if I couldn't peel them. The original fruit roll up.

The soup wasn't bad either.

The day before, I had some roast tenderloin left over from a party for an admiral. I made a phili cheese steak that kicked butt.

Today: toss-up between a fantastic anjou pear I got at Gourmet Garage and the veal sausage & onions Sam made for dinner.

Smoked Turkey Burritos. The tortilla was schmeared with chipotle mayonnaise. The "salad" of shredded red cabbage, peppers, and red onion was dressed with an orange-cumin vinaigrette. And pieces of julienned smoked turkey.

Yesterday: the remnants of an Araguani Chocolate Tart left over from a late-night Vancouver eGulleter chocolate tart festival.

Today: roasted cauliflower. And more roasted cauliflower.

:wub: on both counts!
