Yetty, this is Vancouver's SECOND eGullet couple (that we know about!). Personally, I'm comfortable with my wife as a lurker, not a member.

For me ... Pho with flank steak & tendon. Spicey broth of course! Broke in another pho virgin today as well. Saddly, he didn't like the tendon as much as I

Ling, watch your step girl!

Welcome to the madhouse "Mr. Ling"!!

^ Ha, ha. Welcome!

Today it was a good 'ole New York black and white cookie. I don't normally like these, but it just hit the spot.

[bourdain]

a pork bun from a no-name place on West 38th...gooood.

Again I have to say, a glass of wine. (the perfect food when you're pissed off)

You know, I was just waiting for someone to say...er...post, that.

Most delicious thing today was pho with rare beef and tendon, even though the beef was cooked (my fault--forgot to ask them to put it on a separate plate for me.)

Hope you're in better spirits soon, peppyre

Right now, I'm munching on some dates handschlepped by a friend who recently made the pilgrimage to Mecca.

Delightfully delicious accompanied by a nice hot cuppa tea.

A perfect white peach followed by a white nectarine (summer in Melbourne, Australia).

Trader Joe's has an amazing cranberry walnut tart. The taste just explodes in your mouth. I finally got to taste it yesterday for Superbowl, and then this am for breakfast. So good. We were supposed to have one at X-Mas, and I was dying to try then, as my sister had been raving about it, but they were completely sold out by the time I got there. Cranberries are big in my neck of the woods.... :)

Thanks Yetty. Everything will be much better now

Those dates just look absolutely amazing.

Made some tacos filled with roasted poblano chiles, sauteed onions, and crema fresca.

[chefreit]

Soft-shell lobster, and Casco Bay mussels, straight from an 8-hour trip down 95 south.

Whipped herb Butter, my wife made, and dump cake also my wife.

She is now done cooking for the next decade.............

[cakewalk]

I toasted some walnuts for a banana bread that's now baking in the oven. What is it about toasted walnuts? Definitely the best thing I've had today. Good thing I made some extra, or I'd be baking a cake without nuts.

The prune paczki I just ate downstairs, by myself, in about 2 minutes flat.

I have never like packzi previously. Must be this pregnancy thing.

Prune paczki cravings? Sounds good to me, Danielle! Big hug to Dylan, big sis in waiting

I don't know why, but lately most delicious for me have been on the sweet side. (I should get out more )

These are some Dutch ananas taartjes that my neighbor made and brought over on my return. They're little buttery, tender melt-in-your-mouth shortbread cookies filled with spiced pineapple jam.

^Ooohhh...those look delicious!

Best thing today: something called "Fried Crispy" on the package--I kid you not. It's a Chinese New Year treat--short, fat ribbons of dough (ingredients: flour, water, butter) fried in oil, and sprinkled with black sesame seeds. Crunchy!

[jgarner53]

Just had a piece of whole grain toast with peanut butter that just about hit the spot.

Yesterday's notable: meatloaf.

[Ling]

I'm making Pierre Herme's chocolate mousse tonight, and I have high hopes.

[Country Cook]

A cheesburger made with aged cheddar and local grass fed beef on good white bread with some sliced onion.

[highchef]

crawfish etouffee'. Lent.

[redfox]

I have eaten several entirely respectable things today, many of which were quite tasty indeed. But I have to confess that the thing I enjoyed the most was definitely the plate of Ore-Ida "Zesty" fries, cooked five minutes longer and 25 degrees hotter than called for on the package. Crunch!

[SushiCat]

Fresh bagel from Solly's, whole wheat sesame (beware they are addictive) not toasted, just fresh, sliced with some unsalted butter. Hmmn, maybe I should post this on the butter thread.

[Fritz Brenner]

we had dinner at a restaurant in town called "lovely hula hands:" an awesome pomegranate molasses, lime, and sauza tequila cocktail (called "talulah's bathwater" ), a salt and pepper calamari appetizer, and a painted hills beef burger. it was all really good; i couldn't choose only one delicious thing.

[Verjuice]

Corn muffins from this fantastic little bakery around the corner.

Well, okay. They were supermarket brand. But I still rode home on my bike with a basketful of warm muffins. And I like to pretend that I live nearby a wonderful patisserie. I was up all night attempting to bake corn muffins from scratch and every last one was a disaster. Something about that standard supermarket type is magical, though: suspiciously pronounced "butter" flavor, dough-conditioner tenderness, and those nubbly, grainy flecks of golden cornmeal... ohh.
