Expect Scorching after the 2:25.
This is PERFECT!
But then you just eat two hands full and put the rest away cuz you can't eat a whole bag of popcorn no matter how good it smells.

2 mins 25 seconds
Perfect time for popping the popcorn even though they say 4 minutes.

Trips
When I am taking a trip I always like to meet up with anybody i know who may live at the final destination.
Next year when I go to Europe I wont know anybody anywhere...which is a good thing most times because fending for myself is the way i get to meet a lot of new people.
Food- wise though I would be wrong if I didn't even contact David Lebovitz in Paris for one of his tours.
I love his site I love his page I love his cooking.
I love how friendly he is in replying to comments
I love his books
If I plan it well, I will have a great time!
(even if I don't plan it well...it'll still rock) :)

The most delicious
Ok so I have to admit this is the most delicious version of baked eggplant I ever made
One of the secrets to the flavor is black truffle oil and I am never going to go without this ingredient again in my kitchen EVER!
It is good with EVERYTHING...from salad to eggs to meats to all veges..its just good
Ok
Slice them up and ...
Slightly olive oil the baking pan and add parsley
Coat the eggplant slices and arrange like so
Add more seasonings to taste includng just a drizzle of Truffle oil on each.
Bake 350F for 45 mins.
Smells delicious at 30 mins
Browns at 45 mins
The taste is heavenly and the mouth-feel is wow (umami)!

Organized
I am never organized enough to cook at other people's houses.
I never know where things are
At my place I know from memory what I have and what don't so I can just make something from scratch.
At friend's houses I have to plan.
I end up buying stuff they already have most of the time.
Luckily when its a movie night all we ever do is reheat the bread or pizza or whatever :)

Reminds me
Produce reminds me of
Friendly people
Fresh Clothes
Sleeping in in the morning (Well laying in bed when you've woken up and you can't back to sleep)

I know- this post is lame.
But I wanted to put up my produce pics. I like them! they really do remind me of all those good things :)

Never sure
I think that I don't like Okra/Ochro.
I really don't but i always end up eating it when offered.
I shouln't eat it though..Its hairy and slimy all at the same time.
I can't get over it.
I don't even know how to cook it so that it would taste good.

The bakers
The guys who offered me samples of this were really nice.
I didn't want the samples.
It was just cheese cake , but the guy who was advertising reminded me of the guy from Degrassi: Next Generation (Drake) who is now a rapper :)

An Expo
At food expo's you sometimes see a lot of strange things
It's food so you they kinda want to draw you in like they do any consumer
So you will see a lot of bright colors
Packaging that is cute or trendy
Free samples of course
Of course :)
Things that seem to have no rhyme or reason
The Dry
The Wet
The cool
The funky
The yummy
I love food
Mainly I like to look at it though
I tried to eat some cookie cakey things last night and it made me ill :(

Trying to eat cake
Everybody knows I like cake, but for the past month I have been trying to eat it and its been a useless effort
I want it.
So I start chewing, but I don't feel like swallowing, so I end up spitting it out and throwing the uneaten slice away.
I mean It's been good in that I don't take in those calories
but what is the deal?
I think it's because I've been listening to a particular morning radio show. I used to listen all the time and laugh. But now it's gotten gross and mean. They do nasty things to food and make people eat it.
I hope I am not off cake for good.
that would blow :(

Ju Ju food
This is an ode to True Blood
One of my fav characters is Lafayette
During a wake he warns Tara (Another of my fav characters) not to eat the 'juju fod' that the townspeople made
She eats it and says it tastes good to her
He says: Now see you gonna wish you never did that girl
And he kinda snaps his fingers. :)
I love True Blood.
(I wouldn't have eaten the food).

Starts with...
Melongene (eggplant), and
Sweet peppers
Cris and I got great deals at the Saturday market.
I couldn't believe it.
I can never get produce at the grocery store again.

Polish
Kam bought this for me at the Polish store. He suggested I try it apart from the other stuff we got the first time when we went to the store in Destin
It's the best ever because its not tart
It's sweet but not too sweet....
I eat it when I am starving and haven't cooked yet
By the time I am done eating though, I don't feel for anything else
This is so good
I like Polish food in general. It's not the most mouth watering but its yummily adequate.

A good day with food
I like to remember the food I had on good and great days
On this day I was hanging out with Ely
I had fun and we were wild with picture taking, then and later on.
We had a yummy yummy pizza. Artichokes and things.
I remember being starving by the time we met at 6 pm because I hadn't eaten all day
So when we ordered I was kinda relieved. I think she was starving too.
The lighting in the pizza place made everything seem like we had gone back in time to the 1990's
EARLY 1990's :)
The thing about starving is this.
You think you can eat a lot
Then once you have a few bites you get full
A few more bites and you feel ill.
When I put my leftovers in the fridge, that night I couldn't look at them the next day. (Its not my favorite thing to eat leftovers, the day after I had the original)
They stayed there, then I had to put them in the freezer.
A week later I ate it....

A good day
Full of sweeties and sweeties
Gelato...definitely too sweet or rich or something.
My head wasn't the same after that. All this after I got the tiniest gelato in the world.
Guys eat this stuff up no problem...
Good thing I didn't feel nausea afterward. :(
The rest and the rest was yummy. I like the design on MIke's coffee, I have postcards just like that.
My cookie (the size of a cake), was amazing :)
