Re: Food!
I made cheeseburgers for dinner, and Froot Loop made mac n cheese. I really want a vegetable, but instead I'll probably grab some Cheetos and a beer after the kids are in bed.

Last night I watched Grey's while I enjoyed some French bread and brie, with a glass of pinot noir. Unfortunately, the wine was chilled, and not cellar temp. Those first few sips were not tasty.

Re: Food!
My brother is in town this weekend, and he is staying at a hotel. Not because I refused to let him sleep on the couch, rather because he refused to sleep on my couch! ha ha ha! Anyway, at his hotel, there is a pancake printer. You hit GO and it "draws" the batter on a moving, non-stick griddle, rolls it under the heating element, and plops a pancake right onto your plate. Pretty fascinating!

Re: Food!
Pancakes are as good (or as bad) as the batter. If the pancakes are not very good, it's the batter that's not good. I doubt it has anything to do with it being from new technology.

It's one of those "itsnin a hotel so it is likely a make a lot quickly type of thing, so the batter is probably made to cook a little faster taking from the taste a little

Re: Food!
I made tamale pie today. for those of you not familiar with Mexican cuisine, a Tamale is a dinner item where cooked ground beef or other meat is spiced and then wrapped in a corn meal batter, wrapped in a big leaf (often banana) and cooked either over coals or fire. Well, tamale pie is the same ingredients, only a fry pan is used instead of a banana leaf, and you do it all on the stove top. Meat, tomatoes, olives, taco seasoning get browned together in the pan, pour about 2 cups worth of corn meal batter over the top, cover and reduce head to med-low for about an hour.
I'm about to find out if it was a success or a failure. Going to have a fancy Ginger Beer with it.

Re: Food!
You are not wrong to cut off the crust.
Today I went to a big ol' church because in the basement they were selling some amazing down-home Vietnamese food! I got some amazing Pho and a sesame ball that was just so-so. I got some coconut dumplings... shredded coconut and nuts in a light syrup wrapped in a glutinous rice flour then steamed in a banana leaf. Very interesting, pretty tasty, and very filling.
Oh, almost forgot about the green cakes I brought home! ...no idea... green and mildly sweet.
