Thirteen Things about Mikey (food and spirits)


No points off for spelling this week



01. I love mint chip ice cream.

02. I loathe candied yams, or any yams for that matter.

03. I love something called Hot Sopresso Sausage, especially with pepperjack cheese.

04. I loathe brussel sprouts, no matter how they are cooked.

05. I love pate.

06. But I loathe "liver and onions" (go figure).

07. In the great scheme of things, I really don't drink. I'm hardly even a social drinker. IF I do drink however I really love Jonny Walker Black on the rocks.

08. In the summer though I perfer Tanqueray and Tonic. Not just any G&T for Me.

09. I don't "do" red wine, it doesn't like me very much, though I do like the taste. I prefer a good dry white.

10. In the high carb deparment, which for right now I am OFF of, I really jones for a great Pesto sauce. Preferrabley on Angel Hair.

11. I love my "soul food" i.e. Hummus, Stuffed Grape Leaves, Babaganoughe, Falafell, and all things culinarily Arab.

12. The other thing that rocks my world food wise is anything hot. Not acid buring your lips off hot, but like good curry, or Thai food or good Mexican.

13. Which brings us to 13, when pushed my favorite restaurant to go to is Mexican.

Till next week!!

Ok so what happened to daily postings? 1) I don't have something to say every day? (not likely if you know me). 2) I'm already bored with this blogging thing (not likely as my attention span is a bit better than that) NO it is 3) NO bloody time!!. More later today. Somebody has to do something, and it's just incredibly pathetic that it has to be us. -- Jerry Garcia, (of the Grateful Dead)

Saturday Night and Sunday Saturday Night Dinner and Martini's Our dinner at Bamboo Asian Fusion was very good. This place was a bog standard "Hibachi cooking table" restaurant, as well as the best of the fine dining at the Paradisus. The restaurant lived up to its name on both counts, very good food, but not superlative performance. The only complaint I had was that the food was much saltier than normal. I started the night with a Coconut Martini, which was actually quite good as a starter drink. I had another at the dinner, but the sweetness was a bit much so I switched to regular dry Vodka Martini's. This was a mistake because five or so later.. well I was hungover the next day.

They just upgraded their old computers so she was able to gift us with two Dell computers. One is sweet: 128 Mg Ram, decent size HD for business, PII chip and Windows 98se. The other was problematic however: it had 2000 professional in it so I had to reformat the HD with Windows 98se (so the two computers could network if needed). It only has 64 mg of Ram and it also has a PII. The problem was that the video card - not on the motherboard thank god - would not work in 32bit color with W98. Well I had an ATI Rage laying around that I bought for A's computer but could no...
