Wendy & I met Michael & Judy, who are 7 days away from expecting their baby! We met at Cactus Pear restaurant in Blue Ash for dinner and conversation. The southwestern cuisine of Cactus Pear is very enjoyable — we started with Flameado, an appetizer with baked sausage and cheese, […]
Tonight’s dinner was the monthly Wine Dinner at the Iron Horse Inn. Ted, Tracy (her first wine dinner in some time!), Angel, Mike, Greg, Wendy, and I met at ‘the Horse’ to partake of the following menu: The Iron Horse Restaurant Treats From Our Cellar 2 August 15, 2006 First […]
I’m currently reading HEAT: An Amateur’s Adventures As Kitchen Slave, Line Cook, Pasta-Maker and Apprentice to a Dante-quoting Butcher in Tuscany by Bill Buford. I was considering bumping this book in favor of Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk to read on an upcoming vacation, but email conversations with new friend Eric […]
This evening, Wendy & I went and had our cellphones ‘unlocked‘, thereby removing the obligation to stick with Cincinnati Bell’s service (which has been screwing me royally since I signed up for it a few months ago) and allowing us to choose another service that is both less expensive and […]
Wow, another night at home! Wendy ate NutriSystem, a salad, and some leftover cauliflower soup for her dinner. For me, I had an onion-y cheeseburger and some mushroom risotto. We watched a couple episodes of THE DOG WHISPERER that we’d recorded before coming upstairs to play on computers a bit. […]
We’ve got a couple behind-the-scenes issues occuring with the website — our cache program isn’t working, sometimes the comment form seems to disappear, and there is an elusive bug with my permalinks. I’m working to fix all of these issues, so if you experience any system wonkiness, please bear with […]
We ate dinner with Dave & Robin this evening at Ruby Tuesday’s where everyone (except me) could be ‘good’ and stick to their diets. While they all nibbled salads and veggie burgers, I enjoyed my Mini Burgers (topped with fried onion straws), fries, and mozzarella & tomato salad. Yummy! Our […]
Wendy & I ended up with a ‘found’ Saturday night off, so we used a gift certificate given to us a while ago to dine at Jag’s Steak and Seafood in West Chester (quite near MESH, where my friend M-Brett works). The food was good, the portions huge, and the […]
After a day of scuba diving at Natural Springs Resort in New Paris, Ohio (about 60 minutes north-ish of us) with Ted, Greg, and Parnell, Wendy & I came home and washed our gear out in our basement’s dip tank and hung the gear to dry. We then went to […]
Another quiet evening for me & Wendy tonight. In fact, we’re fairly quiet until Thursday, then the rest of our week and weekend is packed. So, we enjoyed staying home together. I ate a Yakisoba dinner that was very good! Share: Click to print (Opens in new window) Print Click […]
Another quiet evening at home. I could get used to this! Wendy got home and we did a bit of grocery shopping and got stuff for dinner — carrots for a carrot soup; a green salad, an avocado, and a couple apples for me, and some other supplies. We came […]
Tonight represents the last of several nights in a row that Wendy & I have had no plans. We spent the evening attempting to drive to Ethan Allan (we heard that they were having a giant sale and we’re looking for dining room chairs). We attempted to drive there because […]
This evening Wendy & I attended a special preview event at MESH RESTAURANT, the new project by local ‘Culinary Visionaries’ Paul & Pam Sturkey. The new space is located in a strip mall (!) in West Chester, just a few minutes from our house, and close to Jag’s Restaurant where we […]
Tonight, Wendy & I attended the beautiful reception of Erica & Neil, former students of mine who met in Pharmacy school, fell in love, and got married (in Yakima Washington, Erica’s hometown). They had a very nice reception at RECEPTIONS in Eastgate. We dined on a nice cheese tray and […]
Tonight was HAPPY MOUTH and it was Holly’s turn to select. Ted, Tracy, Angel, Dave, Robin, Ed, Holly, Jay, guests Rose & Keith, Ron, Wendy, and I met at The Golden Lamb (Ohio’s oldest inn, established in 1803) in Lebanon Ohio. A bunch of the crew went up early to […]
I arrived at Pigall’s at 1:15, and worked prep, doing a variety of tasks like picking Arugula, slicing cucumbers, peeling onions, assembling garnishes, helping prepare the amuse bouche, and a few other things. I couldn’t stay long today because this evening was HAPPY MOUTH, so I headed to Lebanon around […]
Wendy took part in a multi-family yard sale that required her to be at our friends’ garage by 8:30 this morning, so she was up and away quite early (which is fairly unusual for Wendy, who likes to sleep in on Sunday mornings). I had a conference call scheduled for […]
After work, I ran by Borders near our house to pick up The Seasoning of a Chef: My Journey from Diner to Ducasse and Beyond, which I fully expect to be a crappy book but want to read anyway. Then, I got a nice surprise — Wendy, who was scheduled […]
From The Unlimited Mood, by way of Virtualzen… Five Items in My Freezer * Herbed Goat Cheese Polenta Cakes — I made it as an experiment some time ago * Vidallia Onion burgers just waiting to be cooked * An old, squarshed genoise cake — it’s probably no good anymore… * […]
Another quiet evening at home with a simple dinner of beef ravioli in tomato sauce. Then, we cut the dogs’ toenails and gave them all baths, so I sit before the computer a bit damp, dog-hairy, and a little dog-smelly. But the dogs are all clean and running around like […]
