Trip report: tried to kill my wife and cook her. She gave me a black eye and a wedgie and told me to make myself scarce for a while unless I want "another one to go along with the first one", she then pointed at my broken eye and slowly made a fist.

The bolded part informs the reader/husband that the "another one to go along with the first" refers to the punch to the eye.

We always pled my father's side's arguable Sephardic descent as the reason we didn't worry about ktiniyot. I suspect the real reason is that peanut butter on matzah is good enough to buy more matzah than we strictly needed for the week.

I don't know, I like both the Mission Burrito and the California Burrito, I prefer the former with carnitas, the latter with carne asada and while really frakin drunk.

Eh, I don't know. I grew up there (still live here) and I don't think that I've ever had a burrito with fries in it. Isn't it a bit much? Maybe I've been missing out on something serious.

Go to a Santana's or a Roberto's, then you'll understand. Some places it's also called a "stoner burrito" or a "surfer burrito". Make sure you get the grilled green onions.

Where in the IE are you? Cali burritos are great when drunk but it is quite a bit much. Nevertheless you should still try one. Def at Santana's.

Roberto's is so bad, though. At least it is in Vegas. Next time you're down here, try Tacos el Gordo on Charleston just east of Maryland. Most of the chain is in Mexico City, but for some reason they decided to put one here to spread the light of amazing tacos. They've got carne asada, cabeza, tripas, and the king of all tacos, adobada. And these grilled green onions and jalapenos that bore their way through me in less than an hour, they're magical.

I mean seriously, look at this.

I didn't know there was a Roberto's in Vegas. Actually I didn't know they had really expanded outside of run down old Taco Bell buildings in southern california. Which is incidentally where you find Santana's most of the time.

Does the Roberto's in Vegas offer tacos de sesos? This is the determining factor of it's authenticity. If not, it's either an imposter or that group of resturaunts has fallen sadly in the dozen years I've lived in Nevada.

I've never asked for tacos de sesos, but they're not on the website menu (which says they have locations in SoCal as well, so it's probably the same outfit). Maybe it's an off-menu kind of thing. There are probably 30 Roberto's locations around Vegas, many of them close to other taquerias. Up in NLV they're mostly recognizable as the only restaurant with English on their signage, which I don't regard as a sign of quality.

That said, they make good drunk food and have a location near most of the good bars in town. They're handy and not terrible. That counts for a lot.

For reals? I've never seen that. I'm used to anything on a rotating broiler being al pastor. And it looks a hell of a lot better than the al pastor I'm used to. Next time I'm in Vegas, I'm all over that.

Not so many business trips at the new job though, so it's gonna be a bit. :(

I like to think the baseball seasons half full. Wait, I did that wrong.

Anywho, just came in from the game to the smoker a little under temped but thankfully still going. Threw some fresh fuel in and am hoping to hit my 730 dinner time. Lot of work emails though while I was out at my "lunch meeting"...

I know you're being funny, but it's called pain perdu, or lost bread.

The French aren't big on toast like we are, though I stayed with a woman who bought tiny, storebought toasts and ate them occasionally with breakfast. Most French have access to some sort of patisserie along their daily commute and awesome breads - and what we consider French bread usually doesn't toast super well for a number of reasons. So they buy pre-toasted toast.

Fun fact, the sandwich bread that most Americans buy is called pain de mie, where mie means the crumb of the bread (as opposed to bread crumbs). It's because there's so much mie and so little croûte.

I liked the first book; I don't want to watch the movie since I have such a vivid idea in my mind of how things should look. Katniss, for example, looks just wrong to me. (Of course, the actress is drat hot, but still, not what I had in mind at all.)

I couldn't get past the first few chapters of the second book. I heard the third book was even worse.

And if I lived in France, I wouldn't eat toast either. I'd eat butter and baguettes and croissants every day, and die of diabetes and a heart attack all at once.

How could I forget? I remember the first time I saw someone have a baguette and chocolate; it was one of Jacques Pepin's shows, and I immediately went out and bought a good baguette and a bar of nice bittersweet chocolate. I was in heaven for the next twenty minutes.

Oh sweet mother Mary, I just went to this little Jamaican place in town that I haven't been to before. Tiny place, nowhere to sit so take out only. Me and my fiance ordered a two item meal with jerk chicken, honey garlic ribs which comes with seasoned rice with kidney beans and a beef patty on the side. Holy poo poo, it's a good thing we got to share because the portions are HUGE. Its delicious, I'm glad to see a small business flourishing, he also only sells his stuff fresh and closes down for the day when he runs out. Time for food coma.
