  • FND 11/20/09: Grilled on the barbie

    Welcome to the weekend.  Pull up a chair and have a plate of grilled squash, chicken or tofu, and a plate of greens.  Don’t pick at the greens. Dinner starts promptly-ish when you arrive or sometime thereafter. You may bring something(s) or someone(s) as you see fit, or just yourself; take a peek at the…

  • FND 8/21/09: Homemade Pizza-o-rama

    Last week: Muchas personas! Food and s’mores until everyone was full enough to roll home. A lovely evening. Can I remember all the details through the foody haze? Maybe not … Good thing it is saved on the bloggy interweb. This week: We’ll make the dough and sauce, you bring the cheese and toppings and…

  • 7/31/09: Appetizers and Desserts

    Hi Folks, We are back in town and ready to end the week! It is the fifth friday, which is a bit like a blue moon. To celebrate we will have a yummy assortment of desserts. You bring the appetizers to get our tummies ready for them. Some appetizer ideas: stuffed grape leaves, hummus and…

  • FND 07/17: pasghetti and meatballs

    FND is keeping it simple this week with spaghetti and meatballs, made fresh.  You could bring anything that would help turn lettuce into a salad, or your favorite side/beverage/dessert.  As I write this I realize I have a good veggie alternative, so never fear. NEXT week FND will be away, taking a hard-earned vacation. Feel…

    Friday Night Dinner will be grilled outside, sort of an instant replay of last weekend, everyone had a great time I hope. Ray and Mimi are away so adjust your expectations, but they said we could use their stuff. I have Hamburgers, hot dogs, and even maybe a salmon burger plus several veggie burgers. Anything…

  • 7/3/09: Breakfast

    Hi Folks, The veggie extravaganza was a great success — gotta do that again sometime. This week we are having breakfast for dinner. We will wrangle some waffles and if you bring fillings, we can make omelets. I am always in favor of cherry pie for breakfast or really any kind of pastry. Fruit salad…

  • 6/26/09: Vegetarian Delights

    Our friend Ana is here from NC and we want to show her some good eats. We will make some Ethiopian specialties. Anyone make a terrific veggie lasagne? How about veggie chili? Mac and cheese? Please avoid veggie burgers — we have done too much of those already. Also note the new Lost and Found…

    Last week was souper duper. Really. Anna brought cheese and Jeff brought bread and more cheese! Mimi made matzo ball soup! Talithia made miso soup! Stuart made gazpacho! Ray made garlic knots and challah and banana fritters! Sam made frozen yogurt! Good eats were had by all. Some of the die-hard-anti-cold-soup-folks even thought the gazpacho…

  • 6/5/2009: Summer Soups (Hot or Cold), Assorted Cheeses and Homemade Bread
