Food

The results of two more dinners from the local strip-mall Chinese joint: surprisingly good beef-and-broccoli, the opposite of fortunes in my cookies.

More bad tasting booze.

2024’s corned beef and cabbage! A decent corned beef this year, slightly salty. The extra salt in the broth gave the vegetables delightful, extra-umami flavor overtones.

Got these fortunes the last time I picked up chinese food at the local strip mall.

Quite a haul this year. My son and I made a full, 6-7 cup of flour recipe.

Possibly the worst booze I’ve ever had.

As a kid, there was absolutely nothing better than convincing my mom to buy some Lucky Charms brand frosted toasted oat cereal & marshmallows.

The summer I was 17, 1978, I was the staff cook at Camp Thunderbird, a Boy Scout camp.

This is from a package of “Tostitos” brand corn chips, “Hint of Lime Flavor”.
