The theme is Texan and it happens to fall in a holiday so the automatic theme-combo protocol is in effect. Also we like fried foods.
We’re guessing quesadillas and latkes — big ones — will be on the table, and who can really tell what else. Chili? 48oz steak? Jackelope?
Have a great weekend and proceed to vacation if possible, y’all.

Dear friends,
As you know, our nest is empty for the first Halloween since we were barely old enough to give out candy. Help us be jolly during this most festive of doorbell-ringing, costume-admiring, and popcorn popping of holidays by joining us for a delightful array of dinner items featuring chocolate and/or chili (and anything you think goes with chocolate or chili).
If you must attend to your own doorbell, then you are welcome to come for the later part of the evening. Perhaps we will get the firepit going and make some toasty marshmallows to go with all that lovely chocolate. Perhaps we will manage to keep the party going past 9:30, even though it is Claremont. Hope springs eternal.
Do let us know you are coming on the website, dears, even if it is last minute.
Your Sam and Ray

FND is bi-coastal today, so some folks may be getting two FND notes – lucky you. This note will be most relevant if you are already in California, or can teleport here by 5:30 PDT.
FND is curious what Mexicalbi means so it’s going to converge on Claremont Craft Ales this evening as soon as 5:30pm. FND hopes it qualifies as comfort food.
Have a great weekend!

Nephew Harry says it’s time for tacos and burritos. Who are we to argue. The planning will be professional and extensive. You may wish to purchase the appropriate technical protective clothing. There will be rice. I repeat: rice.
We have already assembled an impressive photographic guide to assist with ingredient selection. The guide is still being printed on hand-spun silk scrolls encased in platypus tail leather, but of course we also created an online version complete with load-balancing, geographic-zoned edge network delivery, and next generation face recognition. Here you go: http://www.pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=burrito
I know, right? So amazing.
Happy weekend! Stay cool if that’s your thing.

Yes precious, we’ll cook a box without hinges, key or a lid. Also super pancakes that are full of Health and Awesome. Oats y’all. Woot.
While we’re at it I bet bacon and other oddments will be cooked. After this FND will be away for a week (who will host on the 13th?) and return severely jet-lagged on the 20th.
Have a fantabulous weekend!

Or west, just make it far away. Here’s some ideas:
Noodles with Stir-Fried Tofu and Broccoli
Shredded Chicken with Ginger and Cilantro
Tropical Spring Rolls with Chile Sauce
Finally, the ever popular Tea-Poached Pears with Tapioca Pearls and Satsumas
