FND 8/21: Comfort food: you do you
It’s time; we all know we need it. Slow down, give yourself a breather. No particulars this week, just bring or suggest the food that brings calm and joy. We’ll make scratch biscuits and have butter/honey/other stuff for them. Something protein-y.

FND 08/14: Ravioli with a Vegetable Festival
We’re in full simmer around here. Not sure what that means just how it feels, anyway easy enough to add ravioli and sauteed summer-y veggies, possibly also a meat option. It’ll all be a la carte so alternative treatments are welcome. Have a good if not great weekend, try to stay cool.

FND 08/07: Waffles, eggs, melons
Couple baffling things happened: August, and Thursday. Where did they come from?! Chrunchewy waffles and scrambled eggs should fix it! We also have a couple little yellow melons that taste pretty good. What else do we need? Juice? Friday is basically Saturday, so don’t work too hard.

FND 07/31: Taco/tostadas/quesadilla
Soup and salad was next in the lineup BUT what about greens? Can we safely eat them? In an abundance of caution we will kind of just skip to the next thing: Tacos! Yeah! Plus we have a lot of taco makings. Winning! Just between us, quesadillas are also pretty great. Not as crunchy. Still…

FND 07/24/26: Pizza (oven)
Hold the dough! Because Miriam’s bringing it and A WHOLE PIZZA OVEN. Uhm….THAT IS ALL.
-
FND 7/17: sandwich bar and fruit salad
The challenge this week is to find comfort food that requires minimal cooking (so hot out). That’s where sandwiches enter. Could be pbj, could be an elaborate, possibly illegal antipasta concoction. Doesn’t even have to include bread, but we did just bake some. Come as you are! Or will be tomorrow, because today is Thursday…

FND 07/10: Hey Dumpling
Apologies for the late notice, been a hectic week. Going to steam and/or fry dumplings just like the FND Plan[TM] prescribes, served with collards and/or lettuce. Yay Friday, all hail Friday
-
FND 07/03: Dip-n-Stuff
Appetizers! (were you expecting breakfast?) Too hot for hot food so what about dip and things to dip. Chips and salsa, carrots and hummus, spring rolls, popsicles, uhm, ice cubes. Whatcha got.

FND 06/12/26: Tacos
Standing in the sun in La Paz, hungry, no, ravenous, the air thick with the scent of roasting chilies, sizzling meat, and corn flour toasting on griddles. It’s taco time. We have hard shells at the moment; I’ll try to procure soft ones too. We have refried beans and some cheese, lettuce and salsa. Feel…

FND 06/05/26: Tomato soup and grilled cheese
Where were you on the night of June 1st, Emmentaler? Oh really? Your story is full of holes…okay I’ll stop. Actual tomatoes will be harmed, onions will be carmelized. Salad will happen if I can find suitable lettuce.
