For dinner, needed something light. Found BJ’s Brewery website, I had seen it in the Marriott list, and considered it. It is a chain, so I was not real hopeful. Tonite, it was raining, don’t want to go far. They have “PIRANHA® PALE ALE CHILI”. Sold. So I drive the 0.1 mile, and go in. [...] After I pointed out and he passed a bunch of places to eat on the way back from Point Reyes, Art said he had a place in mind, good Chinese. Fine. He is ethnic Chinese, grew up in the Philippines, and knows Chinese. So we head down the 101 to Millbrae, and exit into [...] First I had the Foule platter. Good and a lot of food for 8 bucks. “warm fava beans richly seasoned with garlic, lemon and cumin. ” It comes with a hard-boiled egg boiled in tea which gives it a brown color clear down to the yolk, and a bright pink pickled something. With hummus and [...] So I started the teapot up today, and went downstairs to check one thing. Ten minutes later I came up and there was no whistle. After checking the teapot, there was no water. With our old crappy teapot, I wouldn’t care. Let it cool down, whatever. Of course this teapot is a 19/10 stainless teapot [...] At an unfamiliar grocery store I grabbed Full Circle Organic Peanut Butter. Normally we get Trader Joe’s Organic, and it is very good. This stuff is stiff, sweet and tasteless. They sucked all the oil out so it is completely unspreadable, even when warm, and God help you if you keep it in the fridge. [...] Spent another long weekend at Browns Lake, Burlington WI. Arrived Friday afternoon, unloaded, hung out and opened up the boat. Headed out to Charcoal Grill, on the Fox River in town. We decided to sit outside, and it was warm, not too, low breeze, and sundown. Perfect. With the river a few feet away. [...] Stephanie is off to Los Angeles, so we had a going away dinner at Mixteca, and she invited Chrissi at our request. Arrived Weds Evening, lightly occupied. We had some standard Margaritas, Bette had a weird green top shelf drink she saw at the bar, and we started with the excellent chips and salsa. Not [...] This is a small place in the old karaoke bar a block off of the Woodstock square. Not as much vegetarian stuff as I would expect from the name, but good. Went with three people. Small tables, close — just like in the city! I had beef and pasta ($15), wife had the seafood stew [...] Kelly goes to Clarke College for PT. We wanted the campus tour, so we walked down Clarke St. for two blocks and saw several dorms, all named after nuns, and a bigger building. That was it. No quad, bookstore, anything. Hey, whatever works. Her rental house is across the street, and the house next [...] So on our trip to Iowa, we did our pilgrimage to Walmart, and found their $3 answer to “two-buck Chuck” – Oak Leaf Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon. It has no vintage. I couldn’t resist. I drank this. Its color is very weak, does not have much aroma. Kind of a nasty start. Finish is harsh. In [...] |
