you better hold on, spider monkey!

recently eaten:
salad made with baked potato, cherry tomatoes, corn, bibb lettuce, shallots. specifically the shallots that robin brought back from port townsend are were INCREDIBLE--i could very well have eaten a whole one raw, out of hand.
eggnog cut with milk.
latkes that ez made last night. they fulfill all human need for nourishment on a frozen, icy night.
pear gingerbread with meyer lemon frosting. as usual.
coriander cream chicken wings, oyster po' boys in mini form, and squash soup with jen at the palace kitchen.

on my mind to eat: more extraordinary baklava from mr. gyros, broiled portabello mushrooms with garlic marinade, roast goose with yukon golds, homemade pork and sage sausage, cornbread and ribs, vanilla molly moon milkshake, stop light hot dogs eaten outside somewhere in the snow. there's nothing like biting into a street hot dog when it's cold outside, is there? hardly anything could taste better.
