FND 05/27/16: Bikey/Hikey/Rolly Eats

Posted on May 27, 2016 by | 2 comments

If you can eat it on a bike, on a hike, or just on the go it’s on the plate.  We’ll grill it, skewer it, make it into wee little sandwiches, put it into bowls and cups.

And eat the heck of it.

Ta!

FND 9/6/13: Appetizing

Posted on September 6, 2013 by | 4 comments

Please note that FND this week will consist of items belonging to one or more of the following food courses: hors d’oeuvre, zakusi, starters, amuse-bouche, first course, tapas, antipasto, zensai, finger food, dim sum.

FND this week will *not* consist of items belonging to any of the following food courses: Last Meal, Confucius Mansion banquet, sautéed cicadas

Be advised that the house is full of fruit. Melons, pears, and plum populations are nearly out of control. Also beets.  Adjust your mental stance accordingly.

Have a fantabulous weekend!

FND 3/1/13: Everything but the main course

Posted on February 28, 2013 by | 6 comments

Hiya Folks, 

It’s Mimi this time, and looks like I’m hosting all by myself this week…please don’t leave me to eat alone…

 
It’s been long enough, I think we can let Mr. Appetizers, Ms. Desserts, and Sir Salad back in the house. To celebrate the warm weather we got this week, airy refreshments all ’round.
 
This is the first (EVER!) FND email I’ve sent, and I’m feeling the nerves, so I dug up an FND notice from 2006 and I’m just gonna copy a bit from there. I promise I’ll be original next time. Also funny. These things should be funny. Read on if you want ideas.
 
According to (Ray?) 2006, appetizers should include:
 
chips and dips

pickles / olives / tapenade

caviar / cream cheese / regular cheese / crackers

hummus / pita / stuffed grape leaves

sushi

little sandwiches

See ya tomorrow!
-Mimi
PS. in case you were wondering how I had an FND email from 2006, I actually have every FND email since I got an email, archived. I read them sometimes. More often than you’d think, they’re pretty hilarious. Good memories.

FND 8/10/2012: Salads, Small bites and homemade bread

Posted on August 8, 2012 by | 3 comments

It is just too blazing hot to cook in the afternoon!  So let’s have some cool salads and small yummies.  We’ll make some bread at a cool time of day (or somewhere with AC).  Orders for Icy Blended Drinky Wonder will be filled on demand.

 
See you soon!

Posted on July 7, 2011 by | 5 comments

On this, the last* FND of the Summer of 2011, the good citizens will gather around their table of tubers, and yea they will descend on the fluffy starch nuggets and assorted suitable condiments with steely knives and ravenous appetites.

Also there will be a variety of pre-feast noshies.

So: bring your favorite person, potato augmentation, and/or appetizer. Drinks and desserts are always good too.

*last, schmast. We have to go back to CA but FND cannot be stopped!
