Mae's Feast

Kevin likes empanadas, french toast, and apparently oatmeal.

Betty's meal: Tacos and spicy black beans ( I think they just added salsa)

Newest obsession: Egg's benedict: half original, half veggie!

I know I'm supposed to go to new places and cook new things, but I was on vacation! I miss some of the old stuff!

P.S. Dear, blogger. Your mobile settings suck, and your help section is terrible. I hate this feature.

Lemon Meringue Pie Day and Jello Cake

According to "Pie" Aug 15 is Lemon Meringue day. Guess what I did? Oh yea, and guess what else was there? Banana Cream loves me, and I love it too.

Cafeteria lady always makes things I've never had before. Like Jello cake. It is delicious in all it's bad-for-you-ness. Perfect Friday indulgence.


Step 1: bake a white cake.
Step 2: once it's cooled a little poke lines of holes in the top of the cake.
Step 3: mix 2 flavors of jello. Instead of 2 cups of cold water, all 4 cups should be hot.
Step 4: pour a flavor down a row of holes in your cake. Alternate flavors between rows.
Step 5: chill. then cool whip!

Pies and Pints - hand pie's competition?

Not really. Different thing. Beer, yes. soup, yes. Pie crusts were flakier, but I'm not sure that it was necessarily better than fremont pie place. But! they have a happy hour that's a decent price, cajun fries, and. AND!!! You can get your pie served in soup. There is also sauce to smother your pie in should you choose to purchase it. I got beer cheese.

and soup.

put together like so:

split pea soup, beef mushroom burgundy pie.

There was a coupon on living social. Free appetizer. Hello, cajun fries.



Not like cajun tater tots from McMeneneemein's. No prominence of black pepper. But still good! Especially dipped in beer cheese. Cheesy beer sauce gravy. It was really thick, so I consider it more of a gravy.

Also! They have something wonderful! Can you guess what it is? (hint, see previous rant post).

Not schweppes brand, but orange san pellegrino!! YUM! Also featured in my meal, lazy boy IPA. Gotta be local, right? No.

Dear Schwepps

Please sell Limon and Arancia here in the states. I do not want your "slim line" and I do not want your bitter lemon. Maybe in a blue moon I will settle for the ginger ale.
