Today's Treat: Leftovers!

All week I've been making turkey sandwiches, this time I threw in the stuffing and cranberries as well.

Another Great Groupon!

Hey Tucson folks, today at Groupon get 50% at Sur Real. Sur Real is a great Latin American resturant perched up in the foothills. (Sur Real took over the old Soleil location, the city views are amazing!) Sur Real has some of the best crab cakes I've ever had, and an enormous drink menu. This Groupon is also a chance to eat at a fancy-smancy resturant at an affordable price.

If you want to take advantage of the Groupon, use my personal link and I just might bake you something!

FancyFastFood.com

The subtitle says it all: A food humor blog. I can't imagine making any of these dishes at home, but I appreciate the creativity. Here's the Long John Ceviche:

30 Sec Meals?

I know Rachel Ray is all about making things easier for us simpletons, but this is a little ridiculous...

Happy Sandwich Day!

Today is the birthday of John Montagu, The Earl of Sandwich. As most might know, it was he who "invented" what we know as the sandwich. The Earl was in the middle of an important card game and requested that his meal be served to him between two slices of bread. This enabled him to eat it one-handed. (Although most foodies would agree, the really good sandwiches require both hands.)


I celebrated today by enjoying one of my favorite sandwiches from one of my favorite local coffee shops. The Turkey-Pesto from Chocolate Iguana. Turkey, swiss, and red peppers on a warm baguette smeared with a healthy portion of yummy pesto sauce. The nice folks at Chocolate Iguana also throw in a handful of red pepper tortilla chips, helpful for any pesto that might drip out.

Happy Halloween!

I started my morning right with some Boo Berry cereal. I think I want to paint my bedroom the same shade of lavender as the leftover milk in my bowl.

Been So Long...

All apologies for being away so long. I continued to have lots of food adventures but no time to write about them. My trusty camera phone has always been by my side, my backlog of random dishes and drinks is large. Today I'm taking a little time to give a shout out to my favorite "pop" (midwestern accent springing forth).

RC Cola. Or, Royal Crown Cola. For as long as I can remember this has been my cola of choice. I used to roll my eyes

when people said they could taste a difference between Coke and Pepsi. Maybe it's all in my mind, but when I have all three in front of me, I choose RC every time.

Right now my NPR station is in the middle of a pledge drive. While I sit here and crunch numbers my volunteer manager makes the occasional trip by my desk and makes sure I'm not running out of sugary fuel. I know soda is a little evil, but right now it tastes soooo good.
