Eggplant parm, to use up some parm I grated for mac & cheese and then forgot to add. And this salad I've been working on, which is now sorrel, horseradish leaves, chopped egg and tarragon ranch. I think this is the final version.

I think you meant to say that the 'rihtm is gonna get you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZkjeJKBI0M Eh. I miss embedding!

My dad introduced me to Pogo - same outcome! He also tried with Archy and Mehitabel, but that didn't take.

Fun (or scary) fact! If you randomly start talking about avocados, ads for avocados will mysteriously start to appear on your screen.

Depending on what you mean by "general vicinity" https://www.momokawanyc.com

Noted! If I can ever tear myself away from the fish tacos and fresh noodles.

Mostly! It’s not that useful a skill, though.

This Calvin and Hobbes after-story brings you to your knees.

So, just "authority." Can't claim to be good at anything.

You didn't get khachapuri. I know why you didn't, but if you had, you would've liked the place even more.

Because I've been to the Brooklyn one, and Elmhurst is too far. https://www.thelodownny.com/leslog/2023/10/zaab-zaab-brings-isan-cuisine-to-the-essex-market.html

That whatever it is uses "banned" and "excluded" interchangeably, and they don't mean the same thing. Of course, since the author's credentials are "free spirit," I guess we have to trust them.

Don’t make me fight you. I have a cane now, and I like swinging it around.

That also sounds like a good idea! I learned to make bialys. Not because Kossar's got less good, but because it got more expensive.

Egg & cheese is very good on a bialy. So is whitefish, tomato & onion.

How else are you gonna make a sandwich with it? Wait, are you making two-bialy sandwiches???

Japanese Breakfast at Radio City. They did all the hits first, which may have been a mistake, but they still put on a lively show with a lot of positive energy. One of their encores was The Only Living Boy in New York, which I was not expecting. An aside: I love the crowds at Radio City - so chill! so fashionable! And the staff is super nice. I take my cane with me when I go out, mostly just to warn people to give me some damn room, and I was pulled out of the entrance line and whisked into the building.

You know, when I drop a bottle of wine on the subway platform, as I did a few weeks ago, I have the decency to ensure that it is white wine.

Yes.

Not a great gardening year, but I did get some nice beans and carrots (seen here). Sauteed with broccoli, bok choy, silken tofu and probably other stuff I'm forgetting. Plus an egg! Everyone loves egg. According to the interwebs, this is Filipino chop suey. Now I feel sophisticated.

Terminal 5 is so bad that I'll think twice about going there even if you give me a free ticket to see Dwight Yoakum (based on a true story).

Also that.

The sight-lines are bad. The sound isn't great. The bars are in weird places making it inconvenient to get a drink. I feel about it much the way I feel about Terminal 5. But it does fill up, so obviously my opinion is not widely shared.

It's in the manual.
