FND 05/15/2026: Empanadas
Invoking a broad definition for “dumpling” and probably empanada too, we’ll try to make them from scratch. The cook pretty quickly so bring some fillings or other accoutrements and it’ll be great.

FND 05/08/26: Breakfast
The hens have created a situation. An omelet, scrambled, fried, hard boiled situation. Also haven’t had a waffle in quite some time. Hmm. Advisory: Ray is away frolicking so it’s just myself and Pepper.

To crunch (flat or curved?) or not to crunch; whatever the preference we’ll have the essential ingredients along with some unnecessary and possibly unhelpful stuff.

FND 3/13/26: Tacos
Tacos are good luck so that’s what we’re making, not that we’re superstitious or anything *throws salt over my shoulder* We’ll stock up on soft and crispy shells and refried beans and some sort of protein(s) — how do we feel about fish? Bring your essential ingredient or beverage or just appetite. *touches wood*
