Complicato

Lasagne is one of the most labor intensive dishes to make
Which is why I don't make it often (if at all).

You gotta roast or sautee everything if you are doing a vegetarian lasagne.
Peppers and eggplant

Garlic

Onions

Then you gotta make the sauces
Bechamel

Marinara

THEN you gotta layer

Pasta

Then like so

So

And so

Then put in the oven for a final product

Which I could see a cut piece

T made this not me...I kinda want a piece (sans oignon)

Za Za Leafy Za

What to do? What to do?


My friend T sent me this pic of a vegetarian pizza (i.e. sans ck), that looked yummy
You know I just had to post it
Can't wait to try this stuff

Night at the museum

The museum was having dinner and a movie

Lost in Translation

With Japanese 'fusion' food

So I enjoyed the beans

The California roll and then the lights went out

I couldn't see what I was eating so I had to take these pics...

There is something to be said for dining in the dark...

Dulce

I am enamored with Pan Dulce

They are so beautiful to look at

AND

they taste so so good

I stared at these for a long time before I chose which one I wanted

Well which THREE I wanted.

This is the life!

Down in Sunny Ole (insert country here)

We did it.

The works!

Salsa, queso, steak, rice, beans, chips...

Sangria

Coladas

Pina and Strawberry

Oh we did our selves in!!!

AND it was lovely...Then on to the club for dancing...

We all scream

For these yummies

Nobody got chocolate

I am expanding my flavor horizons (although I did only get Vanilla, which pleased my friend "I" no end, and he said it gave him hope for the future)

I laughed at first and then gave him the side eye O_o

After I ate the cone though, I felt ill.

Lactose intolerance? I hope not. I rarely eat icecream these days...

Oh Yeh

The China State dinner menu is something I would definitely enjoy...

Let's take a gander

First: D'Anjou Pear with Farmstead Goat Cheese Fennel, Black Walnuts, and White Balsamic

Second: Poached Maine Lobster

Orange Glaze Carrots and Black Trumpet Mushrooms

Wine: DuMol Chardonnay "Russian River" 2008 (California)

Lemon Sorbet

Main Dry Aged Rib Eye with Buttermilk Crisp Onions

Double Stuffed Potatoes and Creamed Spinach

Wine: Quilceda Creek Cabernet "Columbia Valley" 2005 (Washington State)

Dessert: Old Fashioned Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream

Wine: Poet's Leap Riesling "Botrytis" 2008 (Washington State)

Nikity

Ok so there was a picnic


On the holiday

My contribution was this

YP provided everything else

I've had some good Christmases but I think this one was the most fun

I laughed the whole day

That has to be a record
Plus we were traumatized by scary movies
SICK!!!!

Just so...

It tasted like Mango but just a little bit too sweet

I liked it but I knew if I ate any more than what I had I would be ill
The person who gave it to me didn't like the taste of his

He thought He got a bad one but I think it's either you love persimmon or you don't

I laughed when he threw his away.
At least I gave it a good try
I probably wouldn't really buy any on my own though...

Drinky foodarious

D invited me to do this adventure

New sushi and drinky drinks

The people at the sushi bar were really cool and the guys making the sushi remembered me fom the time I went with YP

Needless to say it was a riot

I liked the food a lot
(no raw anything for us)

Then we went and got some Iced teas and sunrises ;)

That was rockin

I gotta say..
Then we traumatized ourselves watching Mail Order Bride
LOL
Hilarious as usual...

Yoga Pizza

I don't remember when this was but YP invited me to eat pizza

He really went all out with the prep

I was impressed

So cool and funny

It turned into a cooking show with him going slow on all the steps of the process while I took pics

This went along with that great tasting beer that I like- Maudite.

AND a movie which we both fell asleep during at different times...
THAT was hilarious.

The movie itself was good and traumatizing, I guess we were just tired.
