[Windigo]

Poor people's quiche, a recipe from my mom ( Turkish bread stuffed with a feta , olive & leek filling)
with salad

You put plenty of Kirsch in that, right?
Just checking

I couldn't find any in my area. From what I read cognac would have been a decent substitute, but I didn't want to buy an entire bottle only to use just a little, so I just used a bit more white wine. I like the extra brightness it gave the cheese. I now understand why people use chafing fuel. The moment it comes off the heat it's a race. It was nice to feel like a hippie from the 70's for a while, then the cheese cooled and I got sad.

I love watching cooking shows, there's no one I trust more than Alton Brown, and I just started watching Good Eats over again and Last night I made fondue for the first time and this morning I start watching the show, and which episode is on? One about Fondue. Of course, just my luck. I wish I would have watched just one more episode before I stopped, that way I could have used that knowledge when I made my fondue.

We would call it something like lazy pizza
That Turkish bread comes in handy for a lot of things

The filling is a quiche filling, and this is the name of the recipe as we got it handed down. It's filled with a batter made with eggs and cheese, it's not a pizza

Went to grocery today, Publix, Winn Dixie, and the new huge Asian market about 15 minutes away. Just regular grocery stuff at the first 2, but I wanted to try some frozen dim sum dumplings. I had run into this place before and picked up some vegetable based noodles and had decided I wanted to visit again. They had a WHOLE wall, like 25+ feet, freezer cabinets on the wall plus floor freezers, of dumplings, pretty much whatever shape and filling you wanted. I got 3 different kinds, I'll take a picture tomorrow, plus some tamari, hot chinese mustard, and dried tree ear mushrooms.

After that we went to this little hole in the wall Mexican place that is owned and run by a Mexican family, parents and middle aged daughters cooking. They bring home Mexican spices that are hard to find here after visiting and only use prime ingredients. They actually make several kinds of tamale, but only had jalapeno today so I got a dry carnitas burrito, ate half for lunch and just finished the other half, with their mild salsa, and Craig got the day's special of chicken mole with Mexican rice and refried beans plus their hot salsa. Let me tell you, their hot salsa is HOT. Thought my tongue was going to burn in half the 1 time I tried it. Good thing we had gotten chips and guacamole that time!
