  • Lunch at Potluck, again

    Can’t get enough of this place This is the meatloaf sandwich from Potluck. The creamy tomato basil soup compliments any sandwich on their lunch pairing special. Most meals come with redskin potatoes with those big chunks of salt. Never fails to make the stomach happy.

  • Betty Crocker would not be pleased

    I should’ve stuck with Toaster Strudel I tried to make soft boiled eggs. I failed, but succeeded in making hard boiled eggs.

  • Dinner Club: Hooligans

    Nachos with plastic salsa container There needs to be nacho innovation. They’re a mess. All the glop is on top and the chips get buried. Maybe a nacho bar for the table, separating everything into neat containers with spoons. Aside from this mess, the monthly get together with friends for vittles went quite well. Often…

  • Food and stuff

    Awaiting caption Coleus Last minute call on Sunday revealed my mom was gonna cook up some food. My brothers were there and we had burgers, corn on the cob (which I cut off the cob), baked potatoes that seemed genetically altered and steamed broccoli. The best part? Tomatoes from the backyard. Perfectly red and heavy…

  • Salt

    Bedside table discussion I forget where I heard this, but it’s stuck with me ever since… I think it was an interviewing tip. When you have a meal with someone, observe when they season their food. If they immediately put salt on their vittles before tasting, they might be the type that jumps into something…

  • Fruits

    The cereal aisle is getting longer and taller. Quietly creeping in while low-carbs stole the spotlight, freeze dried fruits is it? They’ve taken over the breakfast aisle. Generally, I like ’em, but my eyes start to cross when there’s too many options. I was feeling like I should err on the healthy side at the…

  • Pancakes

    Imagine life without butter. Yesterday the movers came to the studio and loaded up a truck full of couches and chairs and furniture and a slew of other unwieldy things. We divvied up the stuff over four stops and I finally have my CDs back home. The collection spans back to high school and I…

  • Dinner Club: Andy’s Mediterranean Grill

    Fun with food Dinner club came and I forgot… I sat there clueless fiddling on the computer when the call came. “Where are you?” Ooops. Folks ordered for me as I slipped on some shoes and high-tailed it to Andy’s Mediterranean Grill, just in time for hummus and pita appetizer. The food was good. Seemed…

  • Above and Beyond

    A&W I finally had a meal at the Cactus Pear that agreed with me–the nacho salad, though I thought the Grade D steak was a little overcooked and tough. I just skirted the charred bits and focussed on the topics at hand with Anne and Wendy. Even after our dishes were cleared we sat there…

  • Looper

    Shake It carryall I’d say my days are starting to repeat, but that’d be false. I’ve had the most productive 24 hours I’ve had in a while, and I’m about ready to crash hard from it. Got a concept pushed farther along for a potential client, and whipped up a proposal for another one. Could…
