There are mushrooms...I'm looking at them right now. :-p
But I did forget the bacon!

isn't there a female stereotype about chocolate?
"It is widely believed that chocolate is a drug, but this is of course false. Chocolate is required for normal human function. Without chocolate, the entire female population would suffer from 24/7 PMS. This would result in the vast majority of the male population either being brutally murdered or committing suicide, to avoid being brutally murdered by hordes of semi-sane females in the hope that they may contain traces of chocolate. If the disappearance of chocolate occurs at the same time as a shortage of caffine, the world will definitely implode. "

I guess you could replace the mayo with butter for a less-than-awesome version
but mayo isn't awesome if you dislike it
I like mayo on sammiches. There's something about it on corn, though, that sounds unappetizing.
So I am in Juniors last night... and I ask for a bacon and egg on a roll. This Indian ( From India ) waiter with a name plate that says "St Patrick" looks at me quizzically and writes it down. Should have been my clue this was going to end up bad. Long story short is... this guy comes back with an egg salad on a roll with bacon.
I've never been so utterly confused in my life. The bacon and egg on a roll is like a hamburger it's been a dietary staple of the american eatery for probably a hundred years if not more. How does one screw that up?

Mine aren't even honey nut :(
those are good, too
apple...blood...more blood...vanilla milk shake...blood...cream of mushroom soup...and yet a little more blood
surprisingly blood is not very filling. i don't know why writers are obsessed with making vampires consume it as super food. i mean, if you really wanted high caloric flesh consumption, you would probably go after fat, with special attention focused on brains.

got a really bad sweet tooth tonight and we don't have much in the house to satisfy it readily... so I decided to try and wing a delicious treat. turned out beautifully and tasted heavenly.
basically just peeled, cored, and chopped an apple (don't know what kind, not super tart, but delightfully so) into small chunks, in a small saucepan, cook em down with a few tablespoons of butter and added some cinnamon and cloves and a pinch of salt. added some orange juice later on after they started to get a little bit dry and mashed them into small chunks with a masher. added some honey and brown sugar and continued to cook on low until it became a chunky paste. added a small amount of heavy whipping cream at the end.
toasted up some toast, buttered, and spread.. so awesome! :D the apples are soft, but have a bit of a crunch left in the very center, the way that cooked apples do, like in tarts or pies.
now i want to cook a huge batch in the crock pot >:)

So for my (Norwegian) family's big Christmas meal this afternoon, we had some traditional foods. Unfortunately it wasn't for love of the food so much as likely the last Christmas either of my grandparents will live to see. :(
Anyway, we had lutefisk and lefsa. Lutefisk is basically fish jello that you slather butter on...I tried and could not bring myself to swallow any of it...and lefse is like a sweet tortilla made out of potatoes. Sounds weird, but is actually awesome with the right things inside (butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, etc.)
What did you guys eat for your dinners? Bluet...do you like lutefisk!?

there is a guy from Taiwan here teaching me how to make chinese noodles from scratch, and also some tortilla type things from india. pretty simple and excellent taste and skills!
its been nonstop feasting and boozing here in NZ. big pig leg roasts and turkey and many small things...

these things are good! :]
99 ranch market: asian grocery chain, with a food bar apparently including dim sum dishes
dim sum: chinese style family meal with lots of dishes to choose from. usually starts with soup and tea, goes on for quite a while, lots of dishes come and go. then you get a steamed fish at the end.
cha siu bao: a steamed bun with pork and flavored sweet filling :T
siu mai: dumplings like potstickers but stuffed with different herbs and filling. the one i had was shrimp :I :X
the other stuff i had was some fried squid (calamari), pork, and a special unmentionable.
==
today i had steelhead plus an ale pairing. they skipped on the saffron rice and gave me regular, but stale. rice sucked, the rest was decent. the ale was a little overboard for the flavor and heftiness of the fish.

Moro is at 20 Norwegian kroner = 3.41798 U.S. dollars per kilogram here. :D

i wonder is google is smart enough to have done this calculation correctly:
3.41798 * (kilogram / pound) = 7.53535603
i want (US Dollar/US pound). here it's like 3.50 (US Dollar/US pound).

you boys are rocking your diets recently
my diet is pretty simple. i don't know if i mentioned this. i wanted to lose the extra pounds i gained in 3rd year - maybe 15, 20 lbs (previously weighed 195 or so). basically my rules are:
eat breakfast - doesn't matter what (and i generally do cereal and skim yogurt on weekdays)
don't eat after 9pm
avoid processed food, fast food, junk food, etc. (easier to do than i thought, actually)
eat a couple items of fruit a day
a few weeks before that i stopped drinking coffee entirely. i feel pretty good, and i've started hearing things like 'you look like you've slimmed down'.
oh, and i'll be starting an exercise plan next week (for the first time in my life).

jungle curry. hahahah.
jungle curry?
it was ok, but it was more like a soup. bamboo shoots, peppers, unknown roots and seed pod things. various greens including mint. the flavor of the 'soup' was good but it had too many bell peppers for me. the level of spiciness was enjoyable though.
I have a beef pot roast with onions, carrots, and potatoes on the stove. it will be done in about an hour. oh yes.
oh god these carrots are so good.
the carrots are usually my least favorite part :-o
cereal, bagel, two snack breffas bars, coffee and tea in my new thermos most of the day, two cheese sticks, slice of pizza.
what thermos did you get?
I actually got two. I bought the food bottle and the beverage bottle.
It has been a day and I refilled the beverage thermos three times throughout the day. I didn't bring the food one today because I was running late. It's working really well. I can resupply at my work break room(s) with coffee, or hot water for my thermoses.
I bought: several soups, chili, oatmeal, noodles, pasta, and burrito materials to use with the food bottle.
I plan on resupplying later with: groats, rice, lentils, and beans.
I will post about some of my thermos adventures.

On my way home, I stopped at the store to buy some kernels for my air popper. But since I am the world's worst impulse buyer, I came home with the following extra stuff I did not intend to buy:
1 Gallon Water
1 Gallon OJ
2 Rolls of Cookie Dough
1 Dozen Eggs
3 Ice Cream Bars
1 can of kernel corn
and a honking huge bag of kernels.
I mean... wtf is wrong with me? And then I went and baked cookies for some friends I was meeting up with tonight... and forgot em at home.

Well today I had two chimichangas. It was my first experience with chimichangas, and it was ok save for the giant lumps of cheese which were not at all distributed throughout the length of the things. Got a little overwhelming.
Also some crackers. And an iron pill.

Snickers ice cream bar and a pot of java.
Don't taunt, dannyp. Bluet, is that ice cream any good? I saw it for the first time the other day...wasn't sure how well candy bars translate into ice cream...
I made some of the best bacon and eggs ever. Real scrambled eggs are kind of a slow process, and they were well worth it. Seasoned with sea salt and pepper.
Cooked the bacon in the oven with some brown sugar sprinkled on top. :D
Now I'm toying with the idea of a brown sugar glaze for donuts with some of this bacon chopped up and sprinkled on top. MY GOD THAT SOUNDS AMAZING.

Dinner consisted of spending 3 hours in the kitchen and producing: 4 loaves of baguettes, chicken cacciatori, grilled asparagus, and a nice pate a choux based pastry with homemade strawberry jam and powdered sugar.

then I got buzzed on two beers for dinner and reheated some twice-baked potatoes.

fried up some schnitzel and roasted some veggies. incredible!
I have determined that Domino's new pizza is indeed better. But not outrageously noticeably so.
Could I also just say...SOUR PUNCH STRAWS!! /o/
I used to actually drink Big Red out of those ....
> But not outrageously noticeably so.
i think it's great, especially for an $8 large pizza. i love the crust.
i had half of a domino's pepperoni pizza, a 48 oz. coke, a block of ritter sport dark chocolate with hazelnuts, and a cup of starbucks via medium roast columbian coffee.

Uhm... I have real pizza where I live. Just thought I'd gloat... cause you know, just cause I live in NYC does mean I am better than you.
you do indeed, but it probably costs three times as much
Not to mention the fact you breath three tones of car fumes every day ...
I had a plethora of foods today at the international food bazaar on campus! They were:
China's table:
- spicy noodle stuff (overall favorite!)
- hand-made egg roll
Mexico's table:
- Jamaica tea (x2 cups)
Haiti's/Ethiopia's table:
- Vegetable maffe (peanut sauce) over rice
Kuwait's table:
- Arabic coffee
- Okra stew over rice (with chunks of lamb)
My favorite people were the ones at the Kuwait table. One man slipped a little line of expensive-looking (and smelling) perfume on my wrists and told me a little about their culture...they eat with their hands so they routinely apply the incensey perfume to avoid their hands smelling like their dinners. :D A friend from Iran told me these tiny, beautiful bottles of perfume can cost something like $100.

even if real pizza in nyc (or boston, or chicago) costs slightly more than domino's poor excuse for pizza, it is well worth it. and I'd bet you could find huge slices in nyc, boston, or chicago for cheaper than what you'd pay at domino's. chain pizza is invariably no better than edible.
Asemi is correct. You can find very good ny pizza for much less than dominoes. The same is true of subways incidentally, as well as mcdonalds. If you want a sub or a burger and fries... go to a deli and order it. It'll cost less... and be way better in almost if not every respect. Hell I've walked into pubs and ordered a pint and a burger / fries for less than the cost of a subways sandwich.
It's been my experience that fast food joints are hella over priced and generally crap.

This morning:
Baked a loaf of whole wheat bread.
Made a "smoothie" out of: orange, banana, blueberries, carrot, & grapes. (Used a juice "extractor" that pretty much pulverizes whatever you put into it ... but I like pulp so it works well for me.)
This afternoon:
Finding all the vegetables we have and gonna do something amazing!
Update:
Amazing is pushing it, but I made a satisfying lunch. Made some basil-pecan pesto sauce ... turned out okay, but I probably should have soaked the pecans before using them. Live and learn, I suppose.

So my roomate several years ago had this incredibly nice awesome and severely stupid boxer for a dog. Anyways because my roomate used to toss him scraps the dog was an abject beggar when it came to food.
Anyways, one day he was being a real pain... like whimpering because I wouldn't give him food. So I grabbed some hot sauce squirted it on some food and tossed it to him.
What happened next was both sad, hilarious, and awesome. He caught the food. Dropped it on the floor. Barked at it. Circled it a few times... then repeated the whole thing all over again.
He did this for probably 20 minutes before finally eating the damn thing.
Kinda reminded me of your jalapeno problem.

Nah he was fine. He ate a pack of batteries once... we only found out when the batteries started showing up in his poop.
Actually the only time he had stomach problems was when we gave him the wrong type of bones. We thought they were fine, but it turned out they weren't for a dog his size... he was able to snap them and consume them when they were sharp. We felt horrible about that. He was miserable for like 2 weeks.

The sparkling cider? I won the centerpiece at my company holiday party recently and it included a bottle. I was excited to drink it because that stuff is the shit, but I left to go dancing and they had cleared all the tables when I got back! :(

I'm making shepherd's pie right now.
actually the apple juice, but of the same fame, yeah.
Vegan cornmeal blueberry muffins in the oven. :D They smell delicious and look better than I thought they would.
They were a hit, even my mom and grandmother devoured them.
I went to a sweet little french cafe in my neighborhood this evening, La Presse. There, I had two glasses of pinot noir and two rounds of amazing bread & butter for $8.50.
They have yet to charge me for the bread & butter...I've been there 4 times now! The bread is listed on their menu for $2.50 however I think they must have a policy where, if you order anything else, it's on the house.
Great for me, because the bread is why I go there!

good bread and wine... usually reserved for spring for me. deserves an epic book.
Made a bad-ass vegetable stew
Recipe
I thinned out the polenta with some vegetable stock to make it creamy ... guess it's more like grits now, but whatever. It was delicious!

still got 5 hours before i get my coconut shrimp
I work 5 days a week now instead of 3, which translates to sushi and kobe beef 5 times a week instead of 3 ;D
is it real kobe beef or kobe-style beef?
We use American Wagyu beef, which is the closest thing to real Kobe beef that you can get in the states I believe. I think it's illegal to export 100% real kobe beef from Japan. The American Wagyu cattle is a combination of black angus and Wagyu, which originally come from Kobe, Japan.
damn, good eats abound!

Hot Italian sausage with lemon pepper rice for dinner
I still can't fix my problem of not eating breakfast, though. I wonder how important it really is. I wonder how much less "I fucking hate my life" I would be if I had food in my belly when I get to work.
Oh wait, I'd still be at work...pretty sure there's no cure for that feeling.

My buddy on campus, Zach, and I made this amazing duck dish this afternoon. We seared the duck breasts (freshly killed ducks, of course) in a little bit of oil, and made a pan sauce with some of the duck blood, wine, cayenne pepper, and rasberries. Wrapped up the duck in foil, poured some sauce in the pouch, crimped, and braised on the grill for half an hour or so. Lip-smackingly good.
And I marinated some bratwursts in beer and butter and grilled those up. Zach made some decent burgers.
We fed 9 people. :D

well, at least it's soy and not cream milk. if it were dairy, i'd certainly have the same opinion

i had meat for the first time in a while today. it was weird.
asemi > that's not a lot of food!
Cafeteria had a really good fruit-of-the-vine salad served with fried Rosemary polenta tonight. Damn tasty.
yeah I know :/. I never feel like cooking much of anything when I get home from work after 11.
Half a bottle of Bacardi. IAMA drunk bluet, AMA.

I don't feel like cataloging the rest of the day, but right now I am eating a flat iron steak, mashed potatoes, and collard greens. I'm really glad I decided to cook something.
relevant question: when you're cutting/eating meat, which hands do you use? I keep the fork in my left hand for cutting and eating. I remember hearing something when I was a kid about it being proper manners to cut like that, then put down your utensils and pick up your fork with your right hand to eat the piece you just cut.
i grew up doing the latter. what happened to etiquette thread?
keeping your fork in your left hand is french
switching hands is american
switching hands is american
I do the latter as well.
But asemi, are you left-handed? I feel like it would be strange if you were, and were using your right hand for your fork...

...this thread is turning me on. :x
Ew.
I'm not left-handed. I keep the knife in my right because it really doesn't take much coordination with my left hand to stick it into something and then move it toward my mouth. and switching seems like a waste of time.
i eat in the french manner
americans are dumb (good going, asemi!)

I finally got to eat at Baguette, the vietnamese sandwich shop downstairs. They used to only be open from 11-2 Tuesdays and Thursday, so I could never go. Now they're open 11-3 Friday and Saturday!
I had the beef curry sandwich...beef and onions in curry sauce with french baguette, sliced carrots, cucumber, japaleno, and a fist-full of fresh cilantro. All for $4.00! /o/

mouth-lovin'?
for serious
sounds like banh mi. so good. but I don't know about that jalapeno. cilantro is crucial though.
You got it, asemi. The jalapeno just gave it a little surprise kick (not too much) that was fun
I used to hate cilantro. 3 or 4 years ago I put it on a noodle dish not really knowing what it tasted like...I thought it was just another generic-ish green herb, and I couldn't finish the plate; it ruined it for me.
But I think the breakthrough came when I met larz and he kept making this really intense, chunky guacamole with fresh cilantro. I guess it was too good to stay hateful of or something.

You seem to like that flax business. Isn't it boring?
sorry, this time it wasn't the flax cereal - i had the organic heritage (kamut, wheat, oats, spelt, barley, millet, and quinoa)
etrangere> no idea why i like it... i've been eating the most "boring", least sugary cereal i can find without milk (always with yogurt / soy milk) since elementary school.
once in a while, i'll add maple syrup or peanut butter.

Huh. Are you a vegetarian now, nestor? I skimmed your posts and it took until Feb 2010 to find a mention of meat-eating (unless you count eggs).
clearly this thread is not a great sample of my diet. however, you've picked up on something i haven't posted here.
my ex-girlfriend* and i tried to cut down on meat. we thought most meat was unhealthy (due to processing, use of antibiotics, etc.), uneconomical (from a macro perspective), and very detrimental to the environment relative to most plant-based food. it had nothing to do with animal rights. when we dined out or put extra effort into meals at home, we always ate meat. this was conditional on having some understanding of the source of the meat. with the lack of a reliable dinner partner, i haven't been eating a lot of meat lately.

Have you noticed any physical differences since you started cutting meat out of your diet to this degree?

it was also approximately timed with my india trip where i lost weight. following the trip, i also started exercising a lot. there's a lot of noise - but i have a lot more energy and generally feel better than i used to.

not sure about the rest of today, but I started it off with bacon, eggs, and toast. I've been starting off most days like this. I keep forgetting that I'm out of coffee though; it really sucks.
oh, and the eggs were over medium.
don't worry, everyone. I walked down the street for a cup of coffee.

yeah the dinner could not have gone better. Every one loved the sushi and the main course, although I wish I had some big scallops... I could only find the medium sized ones :( they turned out great though, considering I've only cooked scallops like 2 times in the past.

Made my first meal in my new house. Rude awakening today, though, when I realized the gas isn't on yet and tried to light the stove. Luckily I had my friend's camping stove, so I opened a window and cooked some eggs that way. Munched on some grapes my roommate's friend dropped off last night for us. She also brought really nice looking tomatoes and potatoes, so I'm thinking gratin tonight! :D

that was really good.
Yeah it's mac & cheese w/broccoli tips and a lot of cheese. It was good but so rich with oils/butter that I could only finish half.
Man, I don't like squash at all...did you bread it & fry it or how the crap do people normally eat it?

We white trashed the shit out of two boxes of Kraft mac and cheese, and it's amaaaaaaazing. We don't even have a stove yet, so we did everything in the microwave!

there used to be a place called oddfellows in toronto that had communal seating and a massive taco night every sunday. that is not the same oddfellows.
Roommate's girlfriend and I had a nice breakfast of various fruit topped with local wildflower honey. <3
but nestor it sounds equally awesome!

Nah, we've been like besties. She got fired recently, and I'm only out of the house a few hours a week at the moment so we just hang out.
The <3 was about the food, not the whole breakfast event, btw.

I was woken up with breakfast in bed today, hahahahaha. I had a really shitty night, so it was a nice surprise.
I made white tea with an orange blossom dropped in ... so good.

Made all of us bacon & fried egg cheeseburgers for dinner. So bad. So good.
are you guys going to have an orgy or something
breakfast sandwiches takes on a whole new meaning.
hahaha
Got breakfast in bed again thanks to these two (girl standing up is roommate's girlfriend, girl sitting is my 7 month pregnant former better-half)
wtf she looks nothing like me!
so you're hanging out with the ex, eh? awkward/not awkward?

That's not the girl who looks like you!
It was awkward, but not really anymore. We've been talking for the past few months. Just not angry anymore. *shrug*

I'm an idiot so I haven't been putting butter or oil on my electric griddle before cooking eggs so they always come out shitty. I put butter on today and despite my aversion to the smell of cooking butter, the eggs came out perfect. ate them with some honeycorn bread from this bakery in new hampshire.
Very lovely, asemi!
haha :-J
I've actually seen people cook eggs in oil before.
you've worked at denny's?
Brother and I are making a big pot of broccoli, potato, cheese soup with a big link of jalapeno-vennison sausage cooked in. OMG YUM
agh that sounds really good
It was. Too good. I feel gross now because I went back for a second bowl, of which I only ate half. So filling...
Breakfast:
- cereal
- pineapple Greek yoghurt
- toast
Dinner (all from scratch! :D ):
- pot roast (because I make a mean pot roast)
- mashed potatoes
- brown gravy
- salad w/ lettuce, red pepper, red cabbage (not much salad stuff in the fridge today, poo.)

Moro!
i got some cara cara oranges. no moro in stores in canadia yet
nope, they're here. i just bought 10. a little sour though.
tempeh strips are so gross. egg sandwiches with two eggs and a lot of bacon are really good. so are cortados .
oh, and we just got organic blood oranges in at my work! I didn't realize until after I left today, but I might go in on my day off (tomorrow) to get some.

ramen and pretzels are lacking in form and function.
for dinner: two yukon gold potatoes' worth of french fries, a duck leg (confit), and a Founder's porter.
I need a nap.

i'm jealous of your dinner. i had carl's jr, some sugar babies, a cup of starbucks via, a camel light cigarette, and some game theory problems.
ew game theory. any mathematical abstract sufficiently complex has an accrued percentage error that decreases it's efficacy to the point of being as worthwhile a pursuit as tiddlywinks.
that's what i think of game theory.

much of game theory is simply refined common sense, though.
Today I realized the broiler is one of the most useful things ever created.
