    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…

  • FND August 1: Comfort Food truck

    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…

  • FND 7/18/14: Calzones

    It was my (Mimi) birthday yesterday or something, and I’m like old and stuff (18) (what the heck that can’t be right) (eek). We’ve opted to switch up the classic pizza FND by having calzones, which are really just folded pizzas. If I were to make a guess, flat pizzas will also happen if the…

  • FND 7/11/14: Burritos

    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…

  • FND 06/06/14: Pancakes and eggses

    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…

  • FND 05/23/14: Snooze button

    I think you either figured it out by now or are already busily engaged with other stuff — FND will hit pause for one week.  Next week: Breakfast!  Power Pancakes[TM], Omelettes. Have a great weeknd!

  • FND 4/25/14: Waaaay East of here

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

  • FND 2/21/14: 3.1415926535

    Or round it off to 3.14 if you like and apply pesto.  We can contribute olives, artichoke hearts, and sun-dried tomatoes.  Alternatively we also have cherries, pears and apples. If you catch the drift.  If not, no worries, bring your bff and appetite and help wave in the weekend. — * Dinner starts around 6:30-ish…

  • FND 01/31/14: The Food, Not the Footwear

    You say Huarache, I say Guarache; let’s eat ourselves silly on oblong fried masa which resemble sandals (in shape only) topped with, oh, we’re not here to judge. Here’s a little history: http://www.elhuaracheazteca.com/historia.html Just run it through Google Translate if need be WHAT COULD GO WRONG. Have a fantastic weekend. — * Dinner starts around…
