C is for...cooking
Sunday, 24 April 2005
random stuff
1. i had a flourless chocolate pecan cookie from pheonix pasficio crap i keep forgetting how to spell it...i will look it up & remember after i write this entry...it was yummy

2. i resisted buying fried artichokes & zuchinni at the earth day festivities

3. i craved an orange cuz of jon...even though i know he didn't mean eat an orange...but i bought like 5 anyway...& i want more...

4. my friend im'd me yesterday that i hadn't talked to in forever...apparently the last time we talked i was making pulled pork...so he asked how that went...it was kinda weird cuz that was over a year ago....but it was kinda funny

5. apparently i also got him hooked on zachary's spinach & mushroom pizza...cuz i reccommended it one time & he hasn't ordered anything else since...which is kinda funny too...i totally rock

6. i've been kinda boring w/ my cooking lately...well yea...since the food poisoning my poor kitchen hasn't been the same...i haven't experimented as much..& i guess i have a lot less time on my hands too....i also haven't been to the store w/ chanda in a while too...that's usually when i get more groceries...the only stuff i get now is from farmer's market...which can be pricey

7. i really kinda want to throw a party....but i know it would be pricey so i'm thinking..maybe it'll be a pizza & pasta party...i'll make the pasta & dough & sauces (probably one basic marinara/tomato, pesto, & creamy (either just alfredo or roasted garlic?)) & then people can bring cheeses & toppings (that way the cost spreads out a little bit & they can bring & share what they like) but at the same time...my apartment is too small....so useless...anyways..the little pizzas & pasta can be made to order..it'd be interactive & fun...i guess i should do a fondue one first though:P beh....no...cuz i have to get those darn gel things...boooooo

ok that's all...
i really want to make appetizers...but so time consuming! gah...& no reason to....boo

oh! one last thing...

8. Maggiano's on May 6th...cuz chris is coming back for his mother's weddings...so chris & his old roommate & floormates & one of the floormates' bf & of course moi haha...we're going to santana row's maggiano's...yum...i'm really excited...i'm particularly looking forward to the Crispy Zucchini Frittes.....oy those are freaking to die for...they're super thin & crispy & w/ lemon aioli how could you go wrong...mmmmmmmmmm....ok anyways...the portions are like 3 times the size that you'd imagine too...so worth it...i got the salmon oreganata last time & my left overs were a meal in itself...yea it's a chain but it's good so i don't care...i realized i don't know if i can even eat as much as i did when i first went cuz i haven't "binged" in a long time...we'll see...

Maggiano's Dinner Menu

oh yea & on a total random sidenote...i need to remind myself i still want to go to santana row's pizza antica which is also a mini chain but they're sup'd to have really good portabella fritters...& i want to see how they match up to rivoli....oh my beloved rivoli...gawd i would love some chicken cooked two ways w/ truffled polenta right now....or the crab souffle....& of course the fritters....

or chez panisse's souffle rothschild....i dream about that at night...ok not at night...during the day....

wow i'm freaking spoiled....go me
