Just got my hairs cut and picked up a nice frozen supreme pizza to cook for lunch. Also bought a couple of those cheap berry pastry pies (2 for $1) - I've been eating these as a treat since I was a kid when I'd go grocery shopping with my mom.   This was my favorite flavor but I haven't been able to find these for a long time.  I bought Safeway's Signature Kitchen brand. I think they're just called 'Berry.'  |

Yesterday after the zoo we stopped at this Italian place, recommended by one of my sister's friends, called Massa's. We wound up circling this place before we could get to it because there is only one way in and out directly off the highway. The atmosphere was very nice, dark with candles on the table. Stereotypical good Italian restaurant. The food was absolutely devine! We had portabello mushroom stuffed with seafood that was wonderful. And I'm not a seafood guy, but that was delectable, it didn't taste fishy or like seafood at all. I ordered the canaloni stuffed with "meat" spinach and cheese. Just wonderfull, I wanted to keep eating it bus was filling up from the mushroom and the wonderful dinner salad with vinegar and oil dressing. My daughter got the spaghetti with meatball, I say meatball because it was one single huge meatball the size of a baseball. My sister ordered a seafood linguini that wasn't terrible, it was probably quite delicious but I'm not really a fan of alfredo sauce. I tried her ceasar salad and found it to be very good. I don't care for ceasar salads either. All in all, a wonderful dining experience. Sounds very nice. I tend to avoid seafood myself these days, but I'd give that a go. |

I worked at Jack-In-The-Box when I was 15. They fired me because of a schedule mixup (their fault) when I went to a concert on the weekend. Fuckers. |

Huh, I've never seen worms in ours, I eat them right off the stalk. We have several varities but golden is the best. Another good one is marionberry. I had never even heard of it until we moved to Seattle. Soak em in water...bet you find a few. Marionberries are great...and so's the ice cream. Also love Huckleberries when I can find them.  I've never heard of this fruit. Makes me think of that DC Mayor known mostly for his indulgences in crack and prostitutes. |

For lunch, I had a Bovril sandwich. Why? Because it was a choice between Bovril and mustard. Really need to go shopping...

Last night before leaving St. Louis, we stopped at this very fancy restaurant that serves organic farm-to-table meals with a menu that changes daily.
I ordered the bacon wrapped meatloaf which came with smashed potatoes and green beans. This was not my mama's meatloaf, I love my mama's meatloaf but this was something on another level.
I can't pinpoint what was used in this culinary work of art, but the chef certainly knew his craft. I'm sorry mama, but this was the best meatloaf I've ever had.
My daughter was so hangry when we got there that she didn't want to eat, but when the food showed up she was ready to try everything that was on the table.
For desert my sister ordered the blackberry creme brulee which was very delicious, and I ordered the chocolate cup, which was absolutely phenomenal.
A little pricey for daily fare at 63 dollars for the three of us, but well worth it for a special meal.

It's concentrated beef stock, in a thick liquid form. Spreads well on bread. Tastes better in cooking. Next time, I'm going for Bovril and mustard sandwiches... |

Me too. I chased it down with two bananas so I wouldn't make that 'sloshing' sound when I walked. |
