What did you eat today?
~ Breakfast: Kashi Crunch with Silk (Regular).
~ Breakfast, pt. 2: a Carrot Cherry Cream Cheese muffin from Blue Sky Bakery. I have liked all of their muffins except for the Blueberry; for some reason, it's a bit drier than the rest. i suppose they're all pretty dry, being branny and all, so the cream cheese is a welcome ingredient. [2nd breakfast is one of my favorite meals of the day -- Ed.]
~ Lunch: Leftover Squash'n Tomato Pasta. sauce is made from garlic, green and yellow zucchini, and hothouse tomatoes. I was too lazy to grate, so a glob of mozzarella found its way in. penne pasta, rigate to catch the sauce.
~ Snack: Dried Mango (of the Key Food variety), Sour Cream'n Onion Dirty Chips
~ Dinner: Nachos w/ Guac, Black Beans, Cheddar'n a white cheese I can't recall, Baked Mac'n Cheese, Grilled Asparagus, Hush Puppies, Corn on the Cob (salted), and Peanut Butter Pie from Bubby's. Black 'n Tan for the delicious mismatch.
What do you never eat?
~ Anything that can carry a conversation.
Complete this sentence: In my refrigerator, you can always find:
~ Batteries.
What is your favorite kitchen item?
~ Mortar and Pestle. I never learned a particular "pestling" technique, but it's hard not to love something that has blessed me with pesto.
Where do you eat out most frequently?
~ NYC: Grimaldi's. LA: Grand Central Market and the Thai temple out in the valley. [That's my temple, yo! -- Ed.] Bay: Should've been the Thai temple off University, but was Intermezzo.
World ends tomorrow. What would you like for your last meal?
~ Steak made by my maternal grandma. Stir-fried Edamame and Bean Curd (the real taut, chewy type). Maguro (tuna) sashimi, fresh out the Mexican Pacific Coast. Spinach Salad w/ veggies yadda*3, Armenian String Cheese, and a splash of Tartuffo Bianco Olive Oil as a dressing. Misoshiru flavored with pork and consisting of gobo, daikon, carrots, crumbled tofu, and the gray, chewy stuff. Natto with nori. A fresh crop of steamed white rice. And brown rice. Mirin Cider and Aqua Frizzante. Those waffle ice cream sandwich bars with the chocolate inside. And Bubby's Peanut Butter Pie. And gelato from that large joint in Rome, near Piazza Navona; any flavor, surprise me.
