Mmm! 4th of July BBQ!

Happy 4th!

Anyone ready for some Texas BBQ? Spent a week in Texas not just too long ago. Sampled ribs and brisket at a couple of places. These aren't quite the absolute most talked about joints or the absolute best, I'd suppose, but they were both pretty damn tasty.

And best of all, the buildings have the right look!

Hey now?

And you walk in and tell 'em what you want and you can haz BBQ right as they slice it off for you. And there are plenty of places to sit and chow down!!

I think I might actually start getting fired up about posting a blog post or two. I give it a 78% chance!

I remembered my password!!!

OMG I can haz posts again!

I really do need to post sometime again. Wouldn't it just make you giddy?

Yeah now!

Breaking News!

And we're back!

I wasn't gone in real life but I guess I haven't posted here for a while. Big news! Starting today you'll be getting 3, count 'em 3!, posts a week out of your, I mean, my VERY own eating San Diego blog! Wow!

What fun!

Oh, you'll get all kind of eating talk that you can't get anywhere. Oh, you'll get junk about overeating at The Tractor Room - a place brought to you by the Hash House guys! Yummy! What about The Linkery? You can't go wrong there!

And what about recipes? Remember some cooking guy named Sam? He has given off one of my favorite creamed up enchilada recipe! Grab a rotted chicken! Or two! I mean a rotisserie chicken. Shred. Add a cup of salsa verde and add in green chilies or chipotles as desired and roll 'em up in tortillas and toss in a glass baking dish. Dump as much whipping cream over it all and then as much shredded monterey jack cheese as you want. Bake it up at 350 for a half hour. Eat.

Happy Thanksgiving!

2 days late.

And many many months since I said "Hi how's it going?"

Still here. I read the normal San Diego Food Blobs. Some of them. Anything that Yummy-Oh-So links to. I could share some vacation pictures or some eating pictures I suppose. I'm still a little stuffed from Thursday. We feasted like no other feast plus all the snacking I did during the day. Oh, my belly was packed! And does anyone have a report from the Wine and Food festival?

That's THE DOG up in the Lake Tahoe area. Still some snow at 8,500 whatever feet at the end of August.

Happy...uh...January 24th!

I have not passed on!  Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year all rolled in to one.  I'm not very good with this blog thing.  Never have been quite honestly.  Anyhow, we've been feasting quite nicely.  Of course I read all the big blogs, mmm-so-yummy-o-so, 3 dogs run around in a kitchen, what we dig up, of course, the blog from Ms. Foodie, Alice Q., I'd call these the preeminent SD blogs, plus there is the Linkery blog. And others I missed.

Of course we've been eating quite well, mostly at home, we absolutely feasted over the holidays, but in our area neighborhood joints too...  Opera in Sorrento Valley of course, the Thai place we like just off of Scripps Poway Parkway, the Cuban place in Poway, etc... plus this last week was restaurant week in our very own San Diego so there was that going on too.  More on those meals some day.  Maybe...

But rewind to our Thanksgiving-fest feast.  Turkey of course, and cranberry sauce with port, potatoes with a fennel puree and a very winning "Country Bread Stuffing with Smoked Ham, Goat Cheese and Dried Cherries".  Yummo!  As you can probably figure out we hopped on to epicurious dot com to find some delicious recipes. 

The desert winner for Thanksgiving was a....

Pumpkin cheesecake with Marshmallow-Sour Cream Topping and Gingersnap Crust.  Looking at the reviews on the site, it looks like others had quite a good time with it at Thanksgiving too!  A new tradition is born!

Delicious!

I can't help it...

Hey, how's it going everyone?

They (whoever "they" are...) say that you really can't take a bad picture of a dog. But...maybe once? Here our boy is apparently chomping away deep into a chow down session (he loves his food as much as I do) in the heart of our June vacation. I have a couple of posts from then to type up if I care to and then it might be back to our very own San Diego foodie talk.
