We went there for lunch and the food was so good. I had the yellow curry with shrimp and (e:Joe) had some amazing grilled tofu and veggie fish. I think I would get that next time. Yes. even over the delicious shrimp.. It was that good.

Delicious Fish - Rolando Anchovey Wrapped Capers
Category: food

I am obsessed with fish. These little tasty gems are so good. I got them at Guercios for like $3.00.

Do you think they're hand rolled? If not, I'd like to see the machine that does this. And if so, I am surprised they're not a lot more expensive. I am obsessed with capers.

Mardis Gras 2015
Category: holidays

I can't believe my brother missed it. It was a great night sponsored by 19 Crimes wine. The show was pretty crazy as was the rest of the night. We tried to come home and make bean dip but ended up going right to bed.

I stole this from the Buffalo News picture but I figured its a picture of me and I am linking it, so here it is

Mennonite?

The Amish don't have mustaches because they think they are too warlike.

This tradition stems back to the early days of the Amish when wearing elaborate mustaches was common among those in the military. In their early days, the Amish and other Mennonites in Europe were often persecuted by these groups. In addition to that, the Amish, being a pacifist group, didn’t want to associate themselves with those who waged war, so strictly forbid their members from growing mustaches. :::link:::

Panera's Wasn't Bad
Category: food

I never eat at chains much but we got two gift certificates for it at Christmas and the commercial for their noodle bowl looked tasty so we decided to check it out.

(e:terry)'s suggested we go to a suburban one to avoid being seen, but we decided that was a waste of gas.

At first I was no thrilled because the place was freezing. Everywhere seemed to be freezing yesterday.

The noodle bowl was actually quite tasty. (E:Joe) seemed to like his vegetarian quinoa bowl too.

It was no Sato but it was totally reasonable for lunch food.
