  • FND 11/18/2011: Breakfast!

    We are all in town and ready to eat some serious breakfast. Ray will make cheesy grits. Sam will make waffles!

  • FND 09/23/2011: In the Soup

    A tale of three soups: Chicken, squash, and tomato. Once upon a time I had just cooked chicken* and made quite a bit of broth, so I made it into chicken potato soup.  Super tasty, but I also had some CSA squash** to deal with. In a flash the idea: make it into soup with…

  • FND 8/5/11: The first meal of the day, redux

    Breakfast!  English muffin with avocado, sliced cherry tomatoes, poached egg and a sploink of goats’ cheese.  Pancakes with mashed strawberry and pear topping.  Oats with raisins and pecans, etc etc.  Breakfast!

  • FND 07/08/11: Stuffed baked potatoes and appetizgasbord

    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…

  • FND 07/01/11: Intersection of Sandwich and Salad

    FND is primarily a communal kickoff for the well-deserved weekend, but we do tend to push the culinary envelope a fair amount. We’re gutsy, possibly even reckless. Case in point: tomorrow we will eat food which could be presented as either a salad OR a sandwich OR an open-faced sandwich OR (just one example) a…

  • FND 6/24/2011: All kinds of Asian food

    Phil has a whole mess-o-chinese broccoli in his fridge just waiting for us to create a meal around it. So bring on your favorite foods from Asia (define that how you like). For self-organizational goodness, you gotta be brave with the FND blog.  Many folks said they were “waiting for others to post.”  C’mon —…

  • FND 06/03: Lobster Thermidor a Crevette with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and spam

    …which is what we affectionately call french toast, pancakes, maple syrup and chai. Hardly any spam (cue Vikings).

  • Lucky dumplings

    Friday the 13th never scared FND, but if it did we could always resort to lucky dumplings.  Uhm, and so we are: they may be steamed or fried or pot-stickery. We’ll also have lots of rice and some greens and dipping sauce.  Bring your favorite dumpling(s), even/especially the two-legged variety.

  • 05/06/11: Za Plus

    Fast full week makes for last minute FND notices, QED, mea culpa, cogito ergo sum. We’ll be at half staff here because of end of the semester work obligations, but dinner will be served, rest assured. And dinner will be pizza, calzones, and for some reason I don’t understand, omelets. It’s as if les petite…

  • FND 04/29/11: >>> Sandwiches <<<

    What we’ll do, we’ll take two pieces of bread – or one piece but typically two – stack a combination of lettuce or other salad-type vegetables, possibly cheese, perhaps meat(s) onto them and certainly add condiments which may be spreadable, sprinkleable, or tossable condiments.  In the event only one piece of bread is used we…
