Macarons


This article has what sounds like a good recipe for them.

Recipe: Nancy Macarons

3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar

1 1/4 cup almond flour or meal

2 egg whites (from large eggs)

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a medium bowl, make a paste using 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons water.

3. Add almond meal and unwhisked egg whites and mix. Add remaining 1/2 cup sugar and mix until thoroughly combined.

4. Transfer batter to a pastry bag fitted with a smooth tip; pipe out circles about the size of quarters, spacing each disk at least an inch apart. Rap the pans on the counter a few times to even out batter and eliminate air bubbles.

5. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until edges are golden but centers are still light and slightly soft. Let cookies cool on baking sheets for a few minutes to set.

Yield: Approximately 40 2-inch cookies

Slavery In Buffalo

Is this a major issue here in WNY? So much so that the busses and bus stops are all plastered with a short number you can dial to report it?

FACT: innocent people are deceived and then bought and sold like property.

Call 211 to report.

Last Day in Tropical Paradise


I am not ready to go back yet. I wish I had a job where I could infinitely work from a remote location, although I am starting to desire cooler weather.

The Commodore


I had the best meal of the trip and one of the best in my life. We ate at The Commodore in Key West The decor, waiter and food were all amazing.

We had lump maryland blue crab meet on artichoke hearts, paramesean baked asparagus, beef carpachio with capers, a spinich salad and then for the main course 4 of the largest shrimp I ever saw with beef tips in marsala sauce and zuchinni and baked potatoes.

(e:terry) drank beer and I drank a glass of malbec. The total bill came to $95 and this was full on fine dining with crumb sweep service.

Bone Marrow


This bone marrow dish from the 2 cent in Key West, Florida was amazing. The last time I had it was at Quality Meats in NYC when visiting (e:hodown). This one was even easier to eat because it was cut in half thr long way. Do they ever do this wirh sheep or lamb bones?

Owner's Suite

Last night there was a sign in our door saying we were moving rooms in the morning. To our total surprise they upgraded us to the owner suite which is amazing.

Should make a great end of the trip weekend. We are both hopefully done being sick now and off to go reef snorkling.

Cemetary In The Rain

It was so rainy on wednesday but the hotel lent out large umbrellas to wander around with so we hit up the cemetery. it is definitely the most chaotic cemetery I have ever seen. The plots seem so random as is the architecture of the graves. I suppose a bunch of hurricanes probably played a role in that. The craziest remuddle was a historic looking mausoleum with a 1990-2000 looking door.
