Yep, FND is happening, yep the website is back in action so you can see the who and what and leave a robust, detailed, creative, but not too creative, relevant, but not too relevant, comment that possibly includes what food item, drink, game, secret information you will bring.
Last week we promised pizza and then were overcome with laziness, fatigue, and inertia. All three! Some really great not-pizza happened instead.
Well guess what. We just got a new pizza stone. We have sauce. We have mozzarella. We have toppings.
We’re totally, 100% making pizzas tonight. Got a favorite topping? Bring it. It won’t end up in a weird soup or salad or casserole. It’ll go right on a pizza. Or bring a drink and a friend, or just go have a great weekend, you earned it.

For the first time ever (in 2018), FND will spin up pizza, stir up salad and, simmer soup.
BYO favorites to casually toss into/onto any or all of those. We have just a stupid amount of kalamata olives; don’t need to bring those.
Welcome to The Future[TM]!

According to the internet — which is infallible — breakfast is composed of the following colors, in order*:
camel canterbury clay desert double dust fallow goldie lion piha sand triple wood brown boomerang cape cigar copper magma matai momentum oak old palliser palm sugar walnut fiery paarl pasifika smoke style tree wood orange chips fish sunkissed
So go hunt and gather. Any grocery worth their #cdd3ca (Sherwin Williams Sea Salt) will be able to fulfill a shopping list comprised of these specific color tags. Should be no problem. Better cookbooks have a color index; if yours don’t consider upgrades.
Have a great weekend!
*Say What?
1. Google image search “breakfast”
2. save the resulting page as an image (I used the Fireshot extension in Firefox)
3. crop out the text and whatnots
4. remove Obviously Not Food pixels (I used Gimp)
5. Upload the image to someones color analysis thingy (I used http://mkweb.bcgsc.ca/color-summarizer)
6. Scratch your head, laugh, more scratching
7. Profit!

We had to run and re-run the calculations using the latest, state of the art machine learning algorithms in a reverse carrier frobotznollifier to determine that YES, FND is happening. Tonight.
It’s going to occur in proximity to the grill and will involve fire. The frobotznollifier is pretty clear about those factors. Additional factors may emerge; you may be one of them. I’d guess s’mores are another.
Bring your favorite fire-ready food parameters.
Have a great weekend!

Breakfast happens all over the world, but if two breakfasts meet, will they recognize each other? We need to find out, for science. It’s important.
Smoked salmon, pickled stuff, & goat cheese; meet baked eggs with mushrooms and parmesan. And our neighbor tortillas, rice, beans, and eggs with salsa.
Spin the globe, pick a recipe. Pretend it’s a breakfast.
We have lots of fruit, good numbers of eggs and enough goat cheese, parmesan and cheddar to destabilize international trade.
Happy Friday! Have a great weekend.

The grill is baaaaack. Rebuilt by fluffy robots and mechanical elves during the full moon, the grill stands ready to handle carne asada, brussel sprouts, and also those weensy potatoes. Since the weather has backed off from full metal melt, we can sit outside and howl.

Feel free to place “south” at any latitude. Ours is 35.9132. Which might mean hoppin’ john, cheese grits, biscuits, almost certainly collards. We won’t promise it will be all that healthy but what *will* be good for you is the California Proposition Confabulation (CPC).
What? What is the CPC? Why it’s famous the world over, or will be, at least it could be we think. The CPC is a semi-rigorous highly scientific unregulated probabilistic crowd-sourced research project into the corners and crannies of the California Ballot Propositions. Our expert research staff (you, us) will delight and enlighten using state of the art, totally reliable unbiased information resources to tease out the factynesses about the 17 million +/- ballot propositions. Mighty tools could include:
The CPC will make you smarter and increase confidence at the polls by at least 12 +/- 3% or your money back.

Didja feel that nip in the air? I am wearing not one but 2 sweater layers today after shivering my way through yesterday…. yeah I know.

So ready for this weekend!

…what calls to you from the kitchen in the morning? What calls, “I’m delicious” and “Definitely eat me”
Whatever it is, hopefully that’s a just waking dream a little glass of juice and some granola will dispel. Or maybe the cat is messing with you cats like to do that.
Pancakes with nuts and/or berries, grits with and without le fromage, and watermelon will be on the table. If anything starts talking we’ll start spreading the jello*
