Food confessions you'd rather not make.?
- z
- Zoe Jul 19, 2002 11:04 AM
I know its OK to like McDonald's French fries but we all have OTHER secrets. Amongst mine are French Toast from Norms and the deepest secret of all, red beans and rice from Popeyes. Do other Hounds have secrets too?
The trifecta of crispy, buttery cracker, moist tender turkey and creamy sharp cheddar...Particularly a treat when I'm....well....
Despite being a carnivore, I was developing a serious thing for Morningstar Farms vegetarian riblets, doctored with a bit of Thai barbecue sauce. But now they have disappeared from Trader Joes. My permanent downfall is orange chicken, of the Panda Express sweet, sticky, spicy variety. I'm so devoted to it I once did a Panda Express phone-in survey to discuss quality and possible improvements. But I'm sure there's other restaurants who do it better. Full House and Sam Woo, downtown, for example, are disgustingly tasty.
I kinda like those Entenmann's plastic-chocolate covered donuts. Also, orange chicken (renamed to "Orange Favoriate [sic] Chicken" when I was a junior in high school) from Big Bowl, across the street from my alma mater, Santa Monica (Samohi). I think it was called that because that's all anybody ever ordered. Goopy, and overly sweet, and dumped on top of mediocre lo mein, but it was great. One place that some people might be ashamed of, but that I am proud to frequent, is Tito's Tacos in Culver City, the only gringo tacos I've ever liked.
re: David Boyk
Wow, David, I went to Samohi too, how did I ever miss the Big Bowl, after confessing to orange chicken addiction in the post just below. Perhaps it was way after my time. We used to go to the crepe place across the street, it was great. But that was for a date or something. During school, we went to Toms #5 for chili burgers and Sambo's for pancakes and coffee (so sophisticated to ditch school and have coffee instead). Also the Brandywyne Cafe was kind of a primitive espresso bar as I recall...this was the '70s, I hate to say.
re: Filmfreaketta
wow, we certainly didn't have any Santa Monica Place in my day. That was the "bad end" of the mall where our parents warned us not to go. We went to Winchell's on Lincoln during photography class, but my favorite donuts at the time were Arlene's at Santa Monica and Bundy (red and orange frosting!). Can't believe it's a Starbucks now. But I did love Stan's in my UCLA days. Oh, another embarassing confession: buttermilk twizzles, from the UCLA vending machines, warmed slightly in the microwave. Nirvana!
re: patty
I live in Texas, but years ago worked at UCLA. There was no better way to start the day than with a buttermilk Twizzler. Are they still made? I'd love to contact the manufacturer and have them shipped frozen to me, but haven't been able to remember the name. Yours is the ONLY post on the internet that mentions these delicacies.
re: David Boyk
Tito's tacos are the best. Crowded, cheap, greasy... Usually I get an order of cheese enchiladas, an extra order of guacamole and wash it down with a giant root beer. The salsa there is positively institutional.
re: tissue
jack in the box surprisingly has decent jalapeno poppers. (good for a quick fix)
re: Rio2002
I completely understand. I prefer the Maruchan brand myself. It soooo hits the spot when I get that occasional craving for MSG...
re: Rio2002
I came here to say this! There are times I crave it so badly I could scream. There's something about the salty, carby goodness.
re: Rio2002
+1 although oddly enough I prefer it uncooked. My mom and I used to grab a bag, break off bits of dry noodles, quick lick, dip in seasoning, eat up.
re: Rio2002
Ramen is good stuff, especially if you tart them up with your favorite things. I add shredded black fungus, dried goji berries, and wakame seaweed. I love the seaweed.
re: EWSflash
I love ramen with shitake, shredded carrots, and wilted bok choy, plus chile garlic sauce.
re: sisterfunkhaus
sitting here trying to figure out what's wrong with that.
re: I just cant say
Yes- JITB tacos and onion rings, on-the-way-home-from the-bar necessities.
re: tokyoastrogirl
No contest-JITB provides good cheap fat in myriad forms...their tacos @2/99 are actually better than Taco Bell's if we're considering the fat factor ;-)
Arby's Giant "Roast Beef" Sandwiches.. I know, I know...
oh, okay... this IS anonymous...
and the Subway steak and cheese sandwich - but only from the SW across from the car dealers in Thousand Oaks. They don't do the "portion" thing and it's messy but "sorta good" - who me? I'm not from Philly, never been there :) :) :) Anyway, you notice I'm not calling this a cheesesteak.
re: no way
OH HELL YES- Sorry, caps lock, but I felt like it should stay. I love those things, with some Arby's sauce and that horsey sauce that doubles the calories. My favorite guilty pleasure lunch ever.
re: EWSflash
Ooooh my--Arby's bacon, beef and cheddar with Arby sauce oozing out of it. Grody heaven!
re: cattus
Oh how I miss El Pollo Loco.....
re: Filmfreaketta
I have been known to eat leftover wicked hot Thai green curry cold upon waking. So good, my husband thinks I am crazy though.
Okay, Chef Boyardee's X-men pasta with sautéed onions. Also made my roommates drool.
Multi-layered jell-o with extra gelatin. Favorite combination is grape, strawberry and lime.
Peanut butter on a spoon, any brand. Used to nibble on plain butter, too.
Coco's oriental chicken salad, which is odd to order when you're - asian.
Eating Twix by the layer.
re: wumanchild
womunchild, you have inspired me to out my parents by describing a couple of their food confessions.
My dad:
Eating spoonfuls of peanut butter with blobs of margarine on top - standing up in front of the refrigerator of course! He also likes to eat mayonaise out of the jar by the spoonful.
And from my mom comes the following which is too much even for me -
stirring a mixture of cheddar cheese, milk and torn-up white bread over a saucepan on a low flame until the whole thing turns warm and goopy. To be eaten at 6 AM in a tattered bathrobe directly out of the pot while horrified family looks on.
re: Cattus
Hey, your mom's concoction sounds good.
I used to enjoy warm toast spread with butter, then topped with peanut butter. So disgusting but so good.
re: Scooter Pie
I also frequently had peanut butter & butter sandwiches as a kid.....often my mom would pack them to take to drive-in movies!
re: dotrat
I don't want to be identified on this one. When I was a kid, I had a sandwich that would make Elvis barf ...
Peanut butter, butter, cream cheese and jelly ... on Wonder bread.
There was a method to it, I remember. Butter first, then peanut butter, then cream cheese, then jelly.
re: too too ashamed
More peanut butter horror....
my 90 year old grandmother turned me on to this one. It's toast with peanut butter, dried shredded pork (usually eaten with congee), and pickled radishes (wu ling tsai) on toast. to chinese...it sounds like the ultimate food degradation.
recently, i met a peanut butter marketing manager and asked him whether my combo ever came up in their market research. He says I won the prize for .000001% of the population.
re: Steph P
it just occurred to me that I should elaborate. As long as I'm outing my food crimes, I might as well describe *why* I like it. :)
the dried pork is too dry to eat on its own, but paired with the peanut butter it provides that salty, meaty edge that counterbalances the peanut butter's natural sweetness. But the peanut butter is the core ingredient; it provides fatty/sweet flavors and the rich quality of roasted peanuts. The pickled radish is really only there for more moisture and to add some crunch to the sublime whole. If you like Roscoe's chicken and waffles, you'll like this combo as well -- i think they satisfy the same primal instincts. :)
- peanut butter (Laura Scudder's Old Fashioned Peanut Butter)
- dried shredded pork (rou sung, found in 99)
- pickled radish (wu ling tsai, found in 99)
- whole wheat bread, toasted
re: Scooter Pie
That reminds me of when my younger brother was an infant (I'm about three years older) and so we still had baby food in the house even though I'd been on solid human food for awhile. I still had a thing for Gerber's banana baby food in a jar -- probably until my brother was on solid food. After initially trying to curb me from eating it, I think mom just gave in and figured as long as I saw it as a treat, occasional banana baby food was ok. I have to say as an adult, banana pudding isn't too far from that, except with the addition of vanilla wafers.
re: Cattus
HO!ly cow.
I concede! I've always had a strong affection for the taste of fat - pure fat from roasted pork, chicken skin, beef marrow - but your dad's mayonnaise bit buries me in the dust!
You have cool parents.
re: Cattus
Sounds like a down and dirty cheese fondue, just needs a little booze.
re: wumanchild
I've never had "Chef Boyardee's X-Men Pasta."
I will keep my eyes out for it!
re: Cha Hound
You mentioned the sandwich. I love the sauce. Love the pseudo horsey packets as well, but I would not object to a few paks of the dark sauce in my desk as well... I can suck those down on their own... since we are confessing sins.
re: Cha Hound
I love the beef and cheddars with horsey sauce. Slurp. I had one yesterday for the first time in a year.
2 words: Slim & Jim. & you can dip em in stuff: maple syrup, jelly, taco sauce, peanut butter. .Which leads to #2 on the Grubsters list o sins: grilled pb&jslathered in butter & grilled like a cheese sandwich. .& yes, that is the Grubmeister you see slinking into JITB for a curly grease, er, fries fix.
re: Mr Grub
instead of slim jim's (which my teeth can't seem to fight past a certain point) I dip those "old wisconsin" "deli sticks" from the grocery into either one of two peruvian pepper sauces (that a place near me sells): panca or rocoto.
Sometimes I go through a phase of eating Fruity and Cocoa Pebbles cereal. My roommate saw me bring in a box yesterday and couldn't believe it.
Oh man...
I love - LOVE - those God-awful "Rich Frosted" donuts from Entenmanns, the kind where the "chocolate" falls off... dipped in a tall frosty glass of milk.
McDonald's Chicken McNuggets. About once every three months, my life turns into a Cathy cartoon and an insistent little voice in my head says, "McNuggets." "No, you may not have McNuggets. Here, have a delicious licuado from Bronco instead." "MCNUGGETS." "No McNuggets! Chickens do not have nuggets. You will eat something chowhound worthy." "mcnuggets." "FINE! HAVE THE MCNUGGETS! SEE IF I CARE, DAMN IT!" "pie."
Taco Bell Tacos Supreme.
Chicken cooked in cream of mushroom soup, a la Midwest.
*hides in shame*
Grilled cheese sandwiches with velveeta on white bread.
Kraft macaroni and cheese with green peas mixed in.
Toasted bread with almond butter, mayo and bacon.
Marie Callendar's chicken pot pies in the frozen food section.
Tommy's chili cheeseburger with chili cheese fries and a soda.
Filet o' Fish, fries (with extra salt) and a coke at McDonalds.
'Scuse me while I go workout and make sure I took my vitamins.
Let me tell you one thing. Norms is excellent and their ice cream is the BEST!
As for your question-Mayonnaise sandwiches with Best Foods (a lot too) on soft white bread with crusts cut off.
re: Sonia
I grew up eating tomatoes sprinkled with sugar. what's wrong with that? ;)
DH thinks my butter, peanut butter and cheese sandwiches are gross... Cheese on PB&J even worse, PB&mayo repulsive. but hey, he eats marmite on his toast so we're even.
I also love Arby's Roast Beef sanwiches - no cheese or sauce.
re: jujuthomas
I used to love Roy Rogers (real meat) with horeradish sauce, yum, or Beefy King in FL. But I'm with your husband on the rest! ;-)
re: betsydiver
sounds good to me!
I just read this entire thread, and I'm not dissin' anyone, but I lost my appetite for lunch.
Trader Joe's frozen garden veggie enchiladas. I microwave them with two raw eggs on top. Then I mash the whole mess together.
Trader Joe's frozen garden veggie enchiladas. I microwave them with two raw eggs on top. Then I mash the whole mess together.
I am struck by the number of items that come up repeatedly. I am guilty of several of them:
- Enteman's plastic/chocolate covered donuts.
-Kraft Macaroni and cheese, if I am feeling gourmet I may add chipotle hot sauce, but plain is fine too.
- Fast food of all varieties. Preferably washed down with a so called "shake."
I am a pretty serious hound, but confess to eating all of these and loving them occasionally.
A few additions of my own:
- Doritos and Yoohoo, a classic taste combo.
- Chocolate pop tarts. I actually warm them in the toaster.
re: StriperGuy
You can put pop tarts in the toaster?
re: calliope_nh
I believe Pop Tarts were originally designed to be heated vertically in a toaster.
re: Tripeler
That's the Pop
re: StriperGuy
Three kinds of poptarts: chocolate fudge, cherry, and brown sugar cinnamon. I miss the Dutch apple variety that disappeared some time ago. I never buy pop tarts, but my mother often buys them as a treat for DD, so that's how I get my fix.
Also love Doritos. They are very soothing to eat when I have a migraine, so I call them medicinal Doritos.
re: MrsBridges
How funny--Doritos GIVE me migraines, as do Cheetos :) Thank God there are health food store versions of both that I can snarf down.
As for confessions: Roast chicken skin. I used to work in a deli that roasted 10-15 chickens at a time and when they'd come out of the oven all crispy, the skin was fair game. When I make one at home I really do have to restrain myself from just eating the skin for one meal.
re: dct
Haha...I fried a bunch of skin in butter a moth ago. Then two nights ago I used the trimmed fat from the pork chops, rendered it for the oil to cook the chops and make gravy. Then I could stop myself for eating the fried cubes of fat. Last night I had a horrible belly ache. Wondering if it is related or if it is because I ate a whole loaf of ital bread with butter for my after school snack. Must learn some self control. This closet eating is seriously out of hand.
re: MrsBridges
My DH LOVED the Dutch Apple, too. The Apple Cinnamon is a poor substitute, but he will eat most any flavor I buy-usually Frosted Strawberry, or very rarely Brown Sugar Cinnamon or Choc Fudge. I crave them about once a year, and then almost instantly regret eating them. If and when we eat them, it is for dessert or a late dinner. I cannot stand them "raw" , they have to be toasted to the point the frosting starts to caramelize.
Cool Ranch Doritos- like the Pop- tarts, it's a once or twice a year craving.
Entenmann's Powdered Pop-ems donuts. I don't buy them very often, because I will pick them off 2-3 at a time until they are gone within an alarmingly short time.
KFC cole slaw
Little Debbie Nutty Bars- see Entenemann's rule above- add a cold glass of milk- Nirvana
I used to eat (in highschool) a marshmallow, on saltine crackers, with sardines (packed in olive iil). You had to put the sardine on top, and the marshmallow in the middle.
I love a good anchovy pizza (thinnest of crusts)
Peanut butter, banana, marshmallow fluff and honey on wonder bread
Dry oatmeal and white sugar mixed together in a bowl, eaten dry
Malt powder! Mmm
And as far as fast food goes, Popeye's mashed potatoes and gravy at least once a year, taco bell bean burritos if I am out late drinking, and mcdonald's breakfast burritos if I am in a rush, never more often than once every month or two
Chili cheese burritos from Taco Bell.
Golden Grahams cereal.
Strawberry cream cheese fry pies from the Amish market.
Shhh...don't tell anyone.
I'm liking this resurrection!! Ok, here goes... sometimes when I'm feeling extra lazy (I mean minimal dishes, uber-minimal effort) I'll microwave my "scrambled eggs." 90 seconds at a time, stirring thoroughly in between, until almost set. I often use jarred sauces (Classico). I have a weakness for Stouffer's Vegetable Lasagna (even though there's almost NO veggies in it, lol) .... with lots of coarsely cracked black pepper.
I enjoy many of these tasty offenses already mentioned, but to add to the list: I like to wrap a slice of gooey velveeta around a raw carrot and eat like that. It's weird but so tasty.
re: JReichert
I was in my car today and ravenously hungry. I drove by McD's and seriously considered driving through for a large fries. I thought back and resisted. Went for the much healthier Utz cheese puffs;)
"Do other Hounds have secrets too?"
Yes. And they're going to remain secret. I have my international street cred to consider.
re: Baskerville
Damn, I love pork rinds and I love almond butter. Never thought of combining them.
Thanks for the tip!
So I'm under the weather with a cold. My normal go to is pho but last night, Velveeta shells and cheese with a hotdog. And to say that every once in a blue moon, I have a burrito supreme...God it feels good to confess that!
I put hot sauce on just about everything........It's pissing off the wife and worrying me. Have my taste buds become so bored or deteriorated that I need more and more heat just to satisfy them?
By hot sauce I don't mean the tame stuff like Tabasco but the kind that eats through metal.
I'm doomed.
re: Duppie
It causes an epinephrine rush, so clearly what you need is a 12 step program for your drug of choice. :-)
Mac and cheese from the blue box, topped with some white stuff from the green can,and an ice cold glass of coca-cola
re: MaxSeven
Max, it is entirely possible to overthink these things. ;-) In my case, it's admitting to hypocrisy in the face of all I espouse about food sourcing, quality of ingredients, animal cruelty, etc... but that's not as light hearted as saying you'd rather not confess.
Humor. It's intended to be HUMOROUS.
I enjoy a roast beef sandwich on rye bread with horseradish sauce. The confession part? It has to be Arby's Horsey sauce. I always pocket a few extra packets when I'm there. (I suppose Arby's itself is confession material, but I've been so disappointed the past few times that I generally go to get a carry out for DH and some Horsey sauce for myself.)
re: MrsBridges
You might also like Woeber's sauce, then, if you can buy it near you.
re: MrsBridges
my husband is an Arby's fanatic for whatever reason.
I used to like Arby's back in the day but lost interest, not him though.
he's always brought home the horsey sauce as he LOVES it too.
very cute I must say.
I never know when buying Baco Tell, especially in multiple #'s, how much of their various sauces to take home to the awaiting mouths. so I grab a few.
they stack up in the frig of all of us and using them in dried pinto's to make refried beans, is a great way to use them up and not be wasteful.
Butterscotch Krimpets, but only when they are so fresh they don't even make a sound hitting the bottom of the vending machine.
Also, when I don't feel good...a McD's hamburger. The little one, with the poor rehydrated onions, ketchup, mustard and lonely pickle.
Love that this thread has been bumped!
Most of my guilty foods have been concocted, gotten at the drive-thru or nuked when I'm trying to put on weight. When I was in the Peace Corps and down to an unhealthy 105 lbs, I remember mixing peanut butter, butter and sugar and eating it out of the bowl.
Now, as I'm trying to put on weight again, I go for easily digestible protein-packed foods, such as Taco Bell Combo Burrito, Arby's Beef and Cheddar (although the high sugar content can do me in), the occasional poptarts (although I do forget about them because of where I keep them) and one of my breakfast favorites: burrito-size flour tortilla, a strip of sriracha, a sprinkling of cashews, shredded Mexican cheese blend, salsa and sour cream, rolled up and nuked for a minute. Quick and filling.
ETA: two cheeseburgers, no pickles from McD's every few months
Whenever I travel internationally, I definitely enjoy the local cuisine. But for one meal, I always find the local Pizza Hut. They offer some very eentersting things there in other countries, and they're usually pretty tasty!
It really came in handy recently on a trip when my friend got word from home that her grandma had passed, but her parents insisted she finish her trip. The only thing that would pass the poor girl's lips was thin crust, extra cheese. But, Big Al to the rescue--I already had the Pizza Hut site stored and ready to go.
re: alliegator
I do remember seeing billboards for some rather interesting Pizza combinations in Manila and Hong Kong offered by Pizza Hut.Last year I believe it was a popper crust where the pie consisted of smaller stuffed calzone like pies baked together to make a whole. I didn't try it but was still intrigued.
re: Duppie
Asian ones usually are the best Pizza Huts, Thailand and Malaysia have some seafood pizzas that are fantastic with really nice quality seafood. I did just have the popper crust thing you described in Morocco. The poppers were cream cheese, Italian cheeses, and a not so good Mexican flavor.
The Pizza Hut thing for me started because I'm a jetlag wimp. I can not travel for 24 hours and have the energy to blunder out onto the streets for some food. But the Hut is always there to help :)
Next time you're intrigued, go for it! I won't tell ;)
re: alliegator
When I'm in Asia I have a hard enough time stuffing my face with all the indigenous and street foods that to consider a pizza hut seems like I'm wasting valuable capacity and calories yet there's always room for Sisig and Bee cheng hiang pork jerky.
re: Duppie
Argh, you had to mention the jerky----now I want it! And you're right about wasting capacity. Eh, that's what confessions are for :)
re: Duppie
Bee Cheng hiang is awesome! Guessing you've been to Singapore =p
re: youngnsassy
I have. Alas, it's was only too briefly.... :/
re: RetiredChef
Thanks for sharing.
re: BIGeater100
Stouffer's mac n cheese with a side of broccoli
re: GreekChorus
When my son was little I would occasionally make him some Stouffer's mac & cheese with a container of frozen spinach in it. He loved it and I would make the same one for myself, later. Good combination.
I've been known to make half a batch of vanilla bean buttercream just to ice a couple of pieces of cake and then pig out on the rest. Very rare but to me it is so worth it.
When I could eat gluten I used to make chocolate chip cookie dough to eat without baking first. ;-)
re: EWSflash
Haha I just couldn't resist!
re: EWSflash
its been discussed a number of times. the idea is/was that a +1 doesn't engender discussion and is prone to turning this into a social site more than a serious food discussion site.
re: takadi
buffalo chicken taquitos...
re: plasticanimal
You should try the mini beef tacos if you have a chance, 4 of them for a dollar....hangover dream come true
re: takadi
I'm also partial to gas station hotdogs, usually from the Exxon, at 2 for $1.50 or something like that.
Mustard only. I never put the onions on. They look like they have been sitting for days
re: TroyTempest
LOVE Wawa hot dogs, in fact I might have to swing by today.
re: fldhkybnva
We don't have wawa down here in TX. I do like COSTCO foot longs as well from time to time.
re: TroyTempest
"I never put the onions on. They look like they have been sitting for days"
lol, oh god, it's a good thing I thought twice before putting that in my confession
re: takadi
So, takadi, are you saying that you eat the onions?
re: TroyTempest
re: TroyTempest
AM/PM is my dealer. There is something about their hot dogs, tacos, burritos and corn dogs that I find delicious. It's the same thing with the taquitos from 7-11. So nasty, yet so tasty.
Wawa soft pretzels - usually at the checkout counter in cellophane, always cold and soggy, always delicious!
re: PotatoHouse
+1 and I stand proudly by it ;)
re: plasticanimal
There's a whole thread devoted to this:
re: buzzardbreath
I love graham crackers spread with peanut butter, it's a great snack.
re: fldhkybnva
graham crackers spread with cream cheese and strawberry jam, yummmm grew up eating those.
re: buzzardbreath
The Graham crackers sound pretty good.
Ramen soup with Kraft singles, not so much.
re: TroyTempest
I have done the ramen and kraft singles thing when I was younger. Especially when I had some cooked ground beef to add to it(Cheeseburger Ramen).
re: PotatoHouse
That makes it almost like hamburger helper
At drive thru - McDonalds Deep Fried pies, especially the apple, but banana is good too. I don't even bother to pretend any more that I'm eating it for the fruit.
At the market - yes the processed chocolate-like coated donuts are oddly addicting, but every once in a while nothing satisfies like a hostess sno-ball. I wonder if there is anything in there that even counts as a real food?
At home - macaroni with mayo. just warm macaroni and mayonnaise. (had a cold once and the cupboard was bare, you make due) it's so oddly satisfying. Carbs and fats with cholesterol thrown in for good measure. I've added fried spam cubes and frozen peas, but its just not the same.
re: KaimukiMan
What?! You still get deep-fried McD pies over there? And banana ones too? The mainland version (apple only, last I looked) has been baked for years if not decades, and they suck. I still remember burning the roof of my mouth on the fried ones.
re: Steve Green
there is always apple. sometimes there is cherry, sometimes banana, occasionally coconut, and once in a while taro. i beleive these are aimed primarily at the asian market, but we get them here as well.
re: KaimukiMan
Macaroni with mayonnaise is good, but it really needs a shot of McCormicks Salad supreme seasoning! That's the only reason I keep that seasoning around - my daughter LOVES it!
re: Jaz Cooks
I'll keep that in mind, thanks Jaz
Chipotle chicken/steak blend burrito bowl with rice, black beans, some cheese, corn salsa, red salsa, pico, and lettuce. NO sour cream. AND a side of tortilla chips.
Also want a mini tub of guac and a couple more of that super salty red salsa sauce.
And a strong frozen margarita.
I prefer to eat this at home so I can pass out in the comfort of my own home and not have to explain to ANYONE why I have guac in my hair.
*walk of shame*
re: nikkib99
Sigh - I am 100% with you on this one. I live abroad, and it is always on my list of US food experiences I need to have before I leave.
That and one post-midnight trip to the Taco Bell drive-thru....
I do not like pie, but the first time I made a crumble pie without out the help of an adult.. I ate all of the crumb-topping and had to make a second batch of the crumb-bits. Good thing it is entirely butter and flour... and sugar.
Top Ramen - raw, broken off into chunks, quick lick and dip into the seasoning packet. My mom and I would routinely eat a few bags at night watching movies when I was a kid. I haven't had it in a while but I assume I'd still be a huge fan. Also I love to grab a handful of raw macaroni and crunch away.
re: fldhkybnva
I had a roommate that routinely did this...ate the stuff like popcorn. We were convinced he would develop scurvy at one point
re: letsindulge
Count me in for Popeye's chicken box with mashed potatoes with red eye gravy and a biscuit.
re: letsindulge
KFC is my go to food after having dental work. Those mashed potatoes require no chewing, yet are hot, thus giving me "full and satisfied" feeling that other foods don't.
And there is nothing like an Original KFC drumstick. It's just so darn greasy and tasty. Since Pioneer Chicken no longer exists, this will have to do.
Fish sticks...with LOTS of homemade tartar sauce.
Marie Callender chicken pies.
Burger King Whopper Junior (I think that's what it was called).
Half an English muffin (gotta be Thomas's) toasted 'til crispy. Butter liberally. Thick spread of peanut butter. Kosher salt. Eat. Repeat as needed.
re: takadi
Ah, duh! I totally forgot about the gloriousness of the red beans and rice!
Fat back, more technically I guess streak of lean, fried up in a cast iron. I love the crispy skin and the chewy fatty fat. It brings back memories of my childhood and don't think I've had it over a decade, but I think it might be time.
When getting up to hit the road very early: that damn bacon,egg and cheese biscuit from McD's.
At home, it's Wishbone Italian Dressing (I hide it behind the maple syrup) with diced tomatoes over cottage cheese...ate this a lot as a teenager, prior to homemade balsamic vinaigrette.
Also, Nutella out of the jar with a spoon...who needs bread or whatever?
Will confess to more when I remember more.
re: chloebell
my DH loves Chef boy r d beef ravioli - his mother keeps a couple cans in her pantry just for him. :)
re: jujuthomas
Funny thing is.......a couple of these "loves", my hubby knows nothing about. I eat them when he's out of town on business. LOL!! That way, I can eat w/out guilt. Hubby very rarely is out of town....therefore, I'm not eating this stuff all the time!!!!!
re: chloebell
oh that is funny! :)
I used to have a couple dishes I'd cook only when DH was away, but he doesn't travel for work anymore thank goodness!
re: chloebell
I can get with all of the above, EXCEPT that Chef Boy-R-Dee stuff. For some reason, it smells like regurgitation to me! UGH!
re: westaust
I also prefer my pizza with "too many" toppings. (Not "too many" for me!)
re: mamachef
Aw, c'mon. Confession is good for the soul. And you know we wouldn't tell anyone ;)
re: Steve Green
I love the JITB tacos. DH and I have gotten in the very bad habit of sharing a set on the way home on Fridays.
re: Jaz Cooks
Growing up we had the creamed chipped beef on toast with Knorr white sauce at least twice a month. I remember the beef coming in this little glass jar.
I bet i haven't had any in 20 years. Kind of makes me want some.
We have a family style fried chicken place that serves a salad that is nothing but iceberg and this super sweet vinegar dressing. I love that with lots of salt and pepper. The salty, sweet, and tangy together is fantabulous!
Thought of one more:
Fried Zucchini - ironically it is the only thing I have found that makes ranch dressing taste good.
OK - I admit I just polished off about 1/4 cup of delicious bacon jam. I just couldn't help it. :/
Cheap Peppridge farm everything bagels. I know they aren't great bagels, but I am in the middle of nowhere Ohio, and have soy and barley allergies which makes it not so easy to find a good bagel.
It's quick, easy, and delicious with chive and onion cream cheese. Maybe I should just call them bread donuts instead of bagel. Then it doesn't seem so bad.
re: caseyjo
I have plenty..
McDonald's fries dipped in their hot mustard sauce, and more recently their new habenero sauce
Bojangles Sausage, Egg & Cheese biscuit
Popeye's chicken
Golden Krust Jamaican Beef Patties
Hot sauce of any kind on a banana
and when I'm in a vending machine situation, a honey bun nuked for 15 seconds
OOoh, and most importantly, especially this week--those French's Fried Onions most commonly used in green bean casserole (!), I LOVE them by themselves..they give me heartburn, but every year I can't help myself.
re: RaleighRocker
yes, you must buy at least one extra package of the French's Fried Onions when doing the Thanksgiving Shopping. I steadfastly refuse to look at the nutritional information. And if they actually sell those addicting things the rest of the year, I don't want to know about it.
re: RaleighRocker
Put 'em on a hot dog with sriracha mayo sometime. Junky heaven. Take a pepcid, though.
And if you absolutely need a healthy part of the meal, mix that rooster mayo up with some pre-shredded coleslaw mix.
I made a big dinner based on a McCormick's pre mixed bag of seasoning and the recipe on the back this weekend. I was feeling lazy. And... it was good. Damn good. And I'll do it again.
re: alliegator
I usually make my own sausage balls but today, I found the frozen ones - I bought 2 bags!!!! Could eat a bag myself.

re: sparky403
I LOVE liver and onions - all types of liver that I've had so far- no ketchup thank you. DH smoked a turkey last night and was kind enough to put the liver next to it on a bit of foil. it was oh-so-tasty. he was oh-so-grossed out!
If I'm craving greasy and spicy, Jack in the Box tacos hit the spot. When I'm sick and want something hot and soothing, I will eat cup of noodles LOL. In the last few weeks I've made Nathans mini smoked sausages wrapped with Pillsbury crescent rolls numerous times LOL. Costco only carries the mini sausages during the holiday season so I stock up and pig out. I love orange chicken. I love breakfast at McDonalds.
re: rasputina
Before I saw that it was you, rasputina, I thought it was our suzigirl. But welcome to the club, sista!
re: mamachef
Lol. That does sound alot like me doesn't it? Sadly I have never tasted JITB. None around here which is probably a good thing because the restaurants are plentiful here and i get myself in enough trouble. I have been lurking but haven't posted yet.
Food confessions- I eat fast food about once a week
Just about everything tastes better fried
I like Wendy's fries over mcdonalds (I know, I know, its criminal)
Weekend are reserved for crap food and weekdays are for scratch cooking.
I eat things my bf make even if i don't care for it(who puts cheese on salmon?)
If i had to pick a last meal it would be green curry, hot and sour soup and crab legs
I love taco bell even if it is crap
I have the palate of a twelve year old
re: suzigirl
Well, I always have liked your style.
That being said - cheese, on SALMON? WHYYYYYYYYYY?
My 12-year old palate needs a cup noodle or something now, just to wash out the imaginary taste/texture.
re: mamachef
Cheese on salmon. He would kill you if he made the sardines on toast. He puts that in the microwave to melt the cheese. He was a bachelor to long. His mom used to make him a hotdog casserole in a tomato sauce. That was dreadful and he loved it and has asked me to try and recreate it. Gee, honey I just can't get it right. You better get some more noodles....lol. You're gonna need em
re: suzigirl
I may not even eat today because of you. Won't YOU be sorry then.
re: mamachef
Sorry about that. Look on the bright side. You didn't have to see it or smell it. :-)
Definitet know the differnece, but usualy have can of the Chef's ravioli in pantry... childhood memory??
I love Cool Whip.I love Cocoa Puffs and Fruit Loops..Chicken McNuggets with honey mustard sauce these are all my anti anxiety comfort foods if and when I am having a bad day and just want to be alone with my junky food and let it comfort me. Last but not least I LOVE kids candy.....suckers...lollipops...bubble gum...licorice....ALL of it. I rarely buy or eat it because I will eat all of it without any qualms.I also love sardines with bones in them for me to crunch.
Ramen prepared according to directions then I add -- peanut butter and Chinese Black Vinegar.
Blue box Mac and Cheese with the addition of cream of mushroom soup and a can of tuna for easy tuna casserole.
I'm a vinegar-aholic! I love salads and 9/10 dress them with a vinaigrette but I always add extra vinegar which in the comfort of my own home I love to drink at the end when it pools at the bottom like soup. I add extra vinegar for the final slurp with any dish that involves vinegar. Smothered green beans and collard greens get a dose while cooking and then I sprinkle on a good few shakes with each bite and then enjoy the rest at the end. Same with hot sauce, extra on the dish and the rest at the end. My SO thinks I'm insane but I find it quite refreshing and it ensures I get my veggies :)
I dip Popeye's fried chicken in mayo before popping into my mouth. Hellman's of course. Always in solitary!
Arby's roast beef, not even as a sandwich - just by itself. I could eat that stuff by the fist-fulls.

|Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade cleared to play after recovering from surgeries
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 02 November 2007 12:22
Miami coach Pat Riley didn't put a timetable on Wade's return to the lineup. In the announcement before Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers, Riley said Wade has been practicing, but without making any contact.
Riley plans to be careful in bringing back his All-Star.
``His conditioning is not to the level that he needs it to be for the kind of game we need from him, but this is a big step for us,'' Riley said. ``We're not going to have any kind of watch. I think when he decides to play is the day you'll know about it.''
Riley said he'd sit down with Wade on Saturday and discuss the matter. Wade didn't make the trip to Indianapolis.
``We'll see how he feels, how comfortable he is,'' Riley said. ``Once this switch has been hit, I think it will change his mind-set as far as really prepping to get ready.''
Riley said the shoulder is in good shape.
``I think it's as strong and durable as it's going to be after five months.''
Wade averaged 27.4 points last season but missed 31 games with a variety of injuries - primarily the dislocated left shoulder he suffered in February.
He returned late in the season and for the playoffs, but he wasn't his normal explosive self. He averaged 23.5 points in the playoffs, but shot just 43 percent from the field as the Heat were swept in the first round by the Chicago Bulls.
Miami lost its season opener Thursday night, 91-80 to the Detroit Pistons. Riley said Wade's return would give the Heat a lift.
``We look forward to his return, when he's ready to go.''

Now our long nightmare is over. Robb Walsh knows food and knows how to write. Congratulations on finding him. George Alexander is pretty cool, too. His polysyllabic erudition adds the dash of humor that makes the recipe just right.
Charles K. White
Superb Before Shipping
How dare he:As a patron of La Estancia's, I feel that Robb Walsh was way off ["Immigration Problems," August 10]. Just because Mr. Walsh has been to Argentina and eaten its food, this does not give him the authority and/or enough knowledge to criticize this restaurant the way that he has.
I appreciate what the owners of La Estancia have done by bringing a bitof Argentina to Houston. I thought the lomo was incredible. Mr. Walsh cannot expect for this beef to come all the way from Argentina and retain the consistency it had before it was frozen and shipped. As far as the wine, I have been to several restaurants/bars and have seen the bartender begin to pour a drink with one bottle and top it off with another.
Can Mr. Walsh honestly expect Americans to pay big bucks for steak that is accompanied by fries? I have been to La Estancia several times and will continue to eat there.

Wedding Celebration Venue, NSW mid South Coast
Your celebration, our venue
No matter where you live, Bawley Bush Retreat on the NSW south coast is a must-consider self-catered celebration or wedding venue. Our aim is to provide the means to make big life events a happy, memorable and affordable experience for you, your family and your guests. Since opening in 2009 we have been chosen by numerous brides and grooms and many major birthday celebrants for their all-weekend celebrations with families and friends, many of whom typically travel great distances to share the festivities.
Please note that we only accept bookings for celebrations where the whole property, including all of our accommodation, is booked for at least two nights. You will not be encroached upon by other guests. A typical celebration consists of Friday pm arrival-and-set-up working bees stretching to Saturday am with Saturday pm outdoor celebration followed by an indoor reception (that can go as late as desired) and a Sunday tidy-up working-bee and farewell brunch. Some people stay extra nights at each end.
What makes Bawley Bush Retreat an ideal Wedding or Celebration Venue?
- We are not a standard 5-hour-hire, indoor function venue. We are especially designed for whole-of-weekend celebrations where brides and grooms have sole access to the whole of our property (except owner's residence!!).
- Our cottage facilities are rated by Star Ratings Australia at 4 stars.
- The maximum seated capacity for dining is 100 but we can do larger cocktail-style weddings. Our beautiful lakeside Cockatoo Room can seat a maximum of 80 people inside. Subject to our seated maximum of 100, some 30 people can be seated adjacently on the veranda.
- You can seat everyone outside on lawns if you want to or you can put up your own marquee or event tents (extra cost for marquee, see tariff).
- We have a large catering kitchen that can be used by the caterer of your choice. There is no additional charge for caterer's use of the kitchen or its equipment. This is included in the celebration package tariff.
- We have natural bushland, beautifully maintained gardens and extensive lawns with lake views. We are an ideal location for picture-perfect photographs. We also have on-site secluded bushwalks for those who want an temporary escape..
- Subject to availability we can accommodate up to 35 of your friends and family on site, more if some camp. There is plenty of nearby 3rd-party accommodation for extras.
- We are on 36-acres with no immediate neighbours that can be disturbed by your celebration. You can party all night but music must be toned down after 11pm.
- We are an entirely self-catered facility. You are completely free to employ, subject to them carrying insurance, as many professional function providers as you need.
- We have an extensive list of excellent local providers listed on this website but you are not limited to these.
- We are happy to advise you how to make the most of our property but we will leave you alone to create the special event you want.
- We have an Event Manual that will help your event manager person on the day to make the most of our property and facilities during your celebration..
More celebration information and Wedding Venue details...
Browse this website, especially all the subtabs under Functions and Accommodation. In particular check out our "Successful Event Tips" subtab. Though our tariffs, except for peak periods, are fully disclosed under the Tariff tab please ask us for a quote so you can be sure of the venue component of your wedding budget. Also ask for our 20% Special Discount off our Function Room tariffs for celebration events on winter weekends though to 2016 (excepting QB long weekends). We invite you and your intended spouse, your wedding party, your caterer, your celebrant and/or your families to visit our place and fully check us out to make sure we are the right venue for your celebration. Just call us to make sure our facilities are not occupied when you want to visit.
So, if you have in mind a beautiful, memorable venue where you and your friends can celebrate without hassle then Bawley Bush Retreat is the ideal place for all your guests (young and old) to celebrate your important occassion.

assesses risks to life and property posed by hurricanes in New Orleans for both pre-Katrina conditions and for a reconstructed hurricane protection system as of June 2006. Volume VIII has taken on a unique importance to the IPET effort because the information contained in it will be central to understanding the likelihood of future flooding and inundation in New Orleans and the resulting loss of life and fiscal assets in New Orleans. These issues are critical to the ability of residents and businesses to obtain financing and insurance for rebuilding in the area and for making decisions about the safety of living in New Orleans in the future. The following report discusses the contents and main sections of Volume VIII and presents its findings and its recommendations for improvements in bold faced print.
The NAE/NRC committee received an interim draft of Volume VIII for review in October 2007, and met with members of the IPET staff in New Orleans on December 3, 2007 to discuss the interim draft. At that meeting, members of the IPET team provided several presentations. At the conclusion of those presentations, time was provided for members of the public to comment, a standard practice with NRC committee meetings. Five people, all citizens of New Orleans, spoke with the committee. Some of them spoke as individuals, while others represented organizations involved in reconstruction and hurricane protection.
The overall risk assessment method used by the IPET appears to be appropriate for evaluating risks associated with the New Orleans hurricane protection system, and in some cases they advance the state-of-the-art in this field. However, the interim draft Volume VIII does not provide sufficient presentation and explanation of the methods employed or results obtained to allow this to be clearly determined. Many of the technical aspects of Volume VIII presented by the IPET at the December 3, 2007 meeting are impressive. Nevertheless, the interim draft Volume VIII is incomplete. Further information will have to be provided to fully explain and validate the methodology that was used and the results that were obtained.
The IPET has put forth a strong effort in producing its previous reports. The team has faced many analytical and conceptual challenges, and they are conducting these studies in a politically charged and contentious setting. They deserve a great deal of credit for their work to date. Despite these efforts, Volume VIII and the IPET study are not complete. This letter report points out additional work that will be necessary to bring the report to a successful completion. These additional efforts will require time and resources. Successful and prompt completion of Volume VIII and the IPET report is important for several reasons: it is important for the credibility of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; it is important to life decisions and financial investments regarding rebuilding and relocation in the New Orleans metropolitan area, and; it is important to ongoing and future analyses of hurricane protection and coastal restoration in southern Louisiana. The Corps of Engineers therefore is urged to provide the resources and support necessary for the prompt completion of Volume VIII.
Studies of the New Orleans hurricane protection system (HPS) are complicated by several factors. They include: (1) the size of the system, which covers hundreds of square miles

I'm looking for fresh, hot, red peppers near Mountain View. Everything fresh at Mi Pueblo is green, everything red is dried. Whole Foods doesn't have any either. Any suggestions?
Most Asian Markets or Supermarkets will have fresh Bird Chilis, Fresnos/Red Jalapeño may be harder to find.
If you're in MV, have you tried Ava's at 340 Castro, the independent downtown market that started in 2011? That is the first place I would look. Selection varies constantly with market and season, but I've gotten pepper types there, often imported, that I never heard of previously.
Anything _locally_ seasonable is also available at the Sunday farmer's market at the downtown train station, which is open as I write this and for about three more hours.
re: eatzalot
No local fresh chiles this time of year.
Ripe chiles are available in parts of Mexico year-round, so someone could bring them in, but I've never seen any around here in winter.
re: eatzalot
When I stopped at Ava's Sunday, they had lots of regular orange Habaneros but no hot red peppers.
If you are interested in produce at that place (now, or future readers of this thread), call and ask co-owner Juan Origel, who does much of the produce selection and can advise you offhand. Avas gets interesting produce, recently there were blood oranges, cara-cara oranges, mango oranges, and a delightful species of seedless tangerine with loose skin, among other orange-oids.
re: eatzalot
And I don't know if the OP is still looking, but FYI bright red ripe Fresnos have now appeared at Ava's in downtown MV, the place I mentioned earlier. I was shopping for sweet peppers today, and saw the new Fresnos.
re: eatzalot
OP (me) was still looking until finally getting over to Ava's this weekend. Thanks for the heads up, though, and thanks to everyone for their great suggestions. I'm going to be trying out those other options as well.
FYI...they freeze well. I'll normally buy a branch @ the FM, strip them, and freeze. I've seen them at 99 Ranch but they're few red ones mixed in with green. Look for small baggie.
re: letsindulge
If frozen is OK, you can find red Peruvian peppers.
re: Robert Lauriston
At 99 Ranch?
re: greymalik
No, at places with Peruvian stuff.
re: Robert Lauriston
Any you'd care to mention?
re: greymalik
In the Mountain View area I don't know. Mi Tierra in Berkeley, several Latin grocers in SF.
re: greymalik
Thai chiles @ 99 Ranch. You might check @ Felipe's in Sunnyvale, Foothill Produce in Los Altos, or even The Milk Pail in Mtn. View. Even if you don't find the chiles this time of year I guarantee that you won't leave empty-handed. They all have beautiful produce.
Saw fresh California grown Red Fresnos/Jalapeño at Koreana Plaza (Oakland)today.
May be check some of the Korean Markets down there?
Saw these at Marina Grocery in south San Jose yesterday. Other branches are in San Mateo and Cupertino.
I just bought some red chile peppers ( jalapeños I think -maybe Fresno? ) at Rincon Latino in Richmond on San Pablo Ave. - they were super spicy!
Heads up...at least 3 varieties of fresh red peppers @ Sunnyvale FM today. I'd suspect to see them at MV or PA FM tomorrow.
re: letsindulge
Interesting, I wonder where they're coming from? Here's a list of markets affiliated with that one so likely to have the same vendors:
Borba at the Mountain View and various other farmers markets has a variety of chiles and peppers. They have some long, wrinkly, narrow chiles that can be slightly hot, though only slightly. I think he calls them Portugal peppers. They're similar to what are sometimes called chilacayote (sp?) chiles in Mexico, though maybe milder. His jalapeños today were mostly green, but some were partly red. But I think the rest were sweet. They're worth checking with and asking if they don't have what you're looking for.
Saw fresh red jalepeños at Ranch 99 in Cupertino (corner of Wolfe and Homestead) today.

NY1 VIDEO: As NY1 News revisits its 20-year history, the station looks back at reporter Russell Sherman's February 20, 1998 exclusive interview with Grammy chief Michael Greene as he responded to the public spat that had erupted with then-Mayor Rudolph Giuliani over the 40th annual Grammy Awards.
NY1 FOLLOW-UP: The Grammys did go back to L.A. the following year, and in fact the show has only returned to New York City once since 1998, in 2003, after Giuliani was out of office.

Benedictine Monks from the Union, Dom Frank Zanitti OSB
Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
Although many priests were arrested and most Soviet churches looted and destroyed after the Russian Revolution of 1917, the fall of the Soviet regime in the late 20th century allowed Russian Orthodoxy to be reborn. This disc presents a collection of chants, which were written for the forty days before Easter Sunday, and provides a flavour of the traditional Russian Orthodox service, which was almost entirely sung.
Greater Lent is a period of fasting and intense prayer, and each of the chants has a particular significance and an accompanying ritual within the liturgy. The purpose of each chant may be to remind the worshipers of Jesus's teaching ('Our Father'), to explore the themes of sin and repentance ('Kontaktion to the Great Canon'), or to venerate the Virgin Mary ('Akathist'). These beautiful and stirring chants are sung by the Benedictine Monks from the Union.
Recorded in 1970.

The Oyster Bay Historical Society (OBHS) is holding the inaugural Advocates for Historic Preservation and Education Awards Reception, sponsored by Raymond James Financial Services, Inc., and hosted by Steven Mucciolo, partner and financial advisor. The reception takes place on Tuesday, July 10, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Woodlands at 1 Southwoods Road in Woodbury. This special event will honor Long Islanders who have distinguished themselves as advocates for history's vital role in our lives today.
Philip Blocklyn, OBHS executive director said, "Because historic preservation and education are two critical elements of the society's core mission, it is more than fitting that we recognize those among us active in promoting Long Island's heritage. In addition, the reception will raise funds in support of the Society's ongoing programs and services."
Sunday, June 24, 2012 was a perfect day in Oyster Bay. It was 80 degrees under bright blue skies. You couldn't have asked for better conditions to celebrate the commencement of the Class of 2012. At the stroke of noon, Mr. Matthew Sisia raised his baton and the Oyster Bay High School combined Symphonic Band and Wind Ensemble struck the familiar chords of Edward Elgar's venerable classic, "Pomp and Circumstance."
The crowd was soon surrounded by a sea of purple and white robes as the graduates marched out the doors of the high school led by the Class of 2012 Honorary Marshals: Elizabeth Gurdus, Kristen Poppe, Alessandra Puccio and Dean Smiros.
Town of Oyster Bay Historian John Hammond said he and Mr. Butts of the Legion, who run the annual 4th of July parade, work out a theme. Last year it was the Civil War. "This year the theme is Theodore Roosevelt and the Bull Moose Years, and the campaign of 1912. It is an appropriate theme for Oyster Bay. James Foote will be speaking as TR. I don't know exactly what he will say as yet," said Mr. Hammond.
Mr. Goldman said he and the other election inspectors were selected from a list provided by the Nassau County Board of Election (NCBOE).
He added, "She's a lovely woman and she's what we all should aspire to."
Bay Day was run using local people including: local artists, the Oyster Bay Youth Athletic Association kids, who took over the new ball fields at the Theodore Roosevelt Park, and participants from the Tuesday's Cruise Night car shows and the Farmers Market. "Dancing in the Streets was supposed to take place but was rained out," said Mr. Imperatore. "The Bay Day events highlighted all the things that normally take place in Oyster Bay."
The Incorporated Village of Bayville election will take place on June 19. Running are three incumbents - trustees Timothy Fay, Kate Naughton and Peter Valsecchi of the Taxpayers Party. Also running is write-in challenger candidate, Harry E. Pinkerton III, of the Concerned Citizens Party. Voting takes place at the Bayville Village Hall and at the Bayville Firehouse. from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. The four candidate's statements appear on this page. [Village Justice Anthony Perri is running unopposed for his seat in the election.]
Kerry Gillick Goldberg, Oyster Festival 2012 promoter, announced they have found the showcase ship for the October 13 and 14 event. "It's the Peacemaker and she's a beauty," she said. Oyster Festival Committee Tall Ships co-chair Jennifer Sappell (with James Werner) said, "It's a magnificent, elegant and glamorous boat, but it's not a historical one. It's an unusual boat. It was off the Carolinas, and took second place in Op Sail in New Orleans. It was the second choice for the festival? The first place went to a government-sponsored ship from Indonesia, the KRI Dewaruci. It had 70 costumed dancers in the rigging."
Finding a tall ship in this economy was a real task. Ms. Sappell (the Long Island North Shore Heritage area executive director) said, "In these economic times, normal people can't keep tall ships anymore. The economics of running them is impossible to maintain. Here with the Peacemaker, you have a devoted crew that are together because of their philosophical belief."

Huawei to appoint an Australian board
Summary: Huawei has announced that it will create an Australian Board of Directors that will meet for the first time by mid-year.
Huawei has announced that it will create an Australian Board of Directors that will meet for the first time by mid-year.
According to the company, the board will be composed of three "prominent Australian leaders" to sit alongside members of Huawei's executive team from Australia, the regional branch and the company's global headquarters in Shenzhen China.
Huawei said that Egon Zehnder had been enlisted to find the right candidates. A shortlist of Australians is already being evaluated, according to Huawei, with the final board to be announced in six to eight weeks.
"This announcement is a landmark event for Huawei on a global level, being the first time that the company has established a localised Board of Directors anywhere in the world," Huawei Australia government and public affairs Director Jeremy Mitchell said in a statement.
He said that Australia was becoming increasingly important in the company's global operations. Huawei currently employs 400 staff in Australia; that number is expected to increase to over 600 by the year's end, according to Mitchell.
"With such strong ties to the Australian market, it was only natural that the company would enlist a number of high-profile Australians to help steer the company's local direction," he said.
Huawei Australia reported revenues of $171 Million for 2010, a 29 per cent increase on 2009 revenues.

The New Yorkers Tables for Two reviews have generally been mordant little affairs, short on criticism and long on wry descriptions of restaurant culture. Not this week. Nick Paumgarten comes down hard on Fiamma, describing FEMA-like service, cold food, a martini made without vermouth, and, in general, the very picture of a major ripoff operation, subsisting on a strong euro and the proximity of the Soho Grand hotel. Its a wild departure from the usual Tables for Two mold, and though it may or may not be reflective of Fiamma (practically all of the reviews have been very positive, including Adam Platts two-star job), its certainly a lot more fun to read. Something tells us Paumgarten had a lot of fun writing it.

I think this pattern can be a quick holiday gift. I also think you could get a pair out of one ball of Elann Highland Wool. I made the cuff a bit longer on mine so I used more then the one ball.
The pattern as written is too large for my hands. My wrist only measures 6 1/2 inches around. So some mods were needed. I decided to do one less repeat of the pattern and work 40 stitches, instead of the called for 45 stitches. I also didn't care for the flared out cuff that most of the pictures of the finished mitts showed. I believe this is caused by the cable starting just four rows from the beginning of the mitt
Elann Highland Wool, Bright Blue (discontinued color)
Size 5 and 6 circs.
With the size 5 I cast on 35 stitches. I did 4 rows of garter stitch. Then increased to 40 stitches and started the pattern. I did 5 rows of the ribbing before the first cable crossing. This has reduced the cuff flair.
I could have done more cables, since I wanted a longer cuff. But decided to just do the ribbing.
After the thumb, I did 5 rows of the ribbing pattern. Then the cable, then 5 more rows of the ribbing. I decreased back to 35 stitches and did 4 rows of garter stitch.
On the first mitt I did the cable just above the thumb. I really didn't care for how this felt. Sort of bunching where you thumb and hand come together. On the second mitt I eliminated the cable above the thumb and it feels a lot more comfortable.
Thumb. The pattern calls for the Afterthought Thumb. If you can wrap your mind around the fact that you are going to have holes and they can be fixed. You will be a lot happier with your knitting. I repaired mine by using only two ply's of the yarn. This makes the repair a lot less bulky.
I worked the thumb with the size 5 needle and decreased two stitches. Ended with garter stitch. I think I would skip this or only do two rows, when I do this pattern again.
I am knitting this pattern for my daughter who has larger hands. I will add a purl stitch between the cable columns and only do the cable crossings on the front of the mitt. Which means you need to be careful where you place the thumb.
It is pouring rain outside so the color is not really true.

Voyeur or peeping Tom pornography is usually more staged with the subjects aware of the cameras, sometimes openly including this exhibitionist awareness. Partners can engage in penetrative sex, known as full swap, or choose to soft swap in which they engage only in non-penetrative sex. Caro rejected that as being a necessary conclusion, stating that female fatty deposits on the hips improve individual fitness of the female, regardless of sexual selection. Transsexual people Transman pornography features performers who were born female and who medically transitioned to male. Within a BDSM or D/s context, facesitting can be an especially intense form of erotic humiliation. In recent years, Japanese films of this genre have become more common in the USA and Europe although it still remains a small, fetish-oriented part of the adult film industry. Unlike Yaoi, Bara is normally made by actual homosexual men, for homosexual men, and tends to focus on the more realistic obstacles and challenges that come with being homosexual in Japan. Various groups within society have considered depictions of a sexual nature immoral, labeling them pornographic, and attempting to have them suppressed under obscenity and other laws, with varying degrees of success. Especially popular in post-World War 2 Japanese culture. This style of filming is in contrast to having a separate, third-person camera crew filming all the action.

Boys Town welcomes its oldest known living alum this weekend. Joe Renteria of Southern California is 96 years old and was at Boys Town in the 1930s.
He is in Omaha to speak to the Father Flanagan Tribunal, the group responsible for investigating the life of Father Flanagan, in order to continue in the process of declaring Father Flanagan a saint.
"We are thrilled to have Mr. Renteria visit Boys Town," said John Mollison, Boys Town Alumni Advisor. "He is one of our students who had direct contact with Father Flanagan and can offer such rich historical reflections of his time here. Joe was even a candidate in the first ever Boys Town mayoral race in 1935."

6 Servings
Prep: 10 min. Cook: 6 hours
1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 can (15 ounces) vegetarian chili with beans
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
2 tablespoons chili powder

1 tablespoon dried basil
2 teaspoons ground cumin
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
6 tablespoons shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon minced chives
In a nonstick skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer
pink; drain. Transfer to a 3-qt. slow cooker. Add the tomatoes,
onion, green pepper, chili, tomato sauce, chili powder, parsley,
