I thought about chucking pasta , most of it is just base. but then there is Federico' s made fresh for me - nope can't give that up.

and if bread means commercial bread - buh bye - but homemade bread, or bread fresh from a real bakery---nope.

and potatoes -we can't go there at all. so versatile, so yummy.

and we can add rice - which 9times out 10 boring, but risotto....

I think I could chuck potatoes, fuck pasta, marry bread. I just don't eat that many potatoes.

JZ, I have nothing to add to the chorus of disapproval of your douchebag ex-bosses except that they are douchebags and you will absolutely get something better. Things will turn around.

If I chucked pasta my poor daughter wouldn't know what to eat for dinner. For myself, I'd probably have to marry bread, which I guess means chucking the potatoes. Except I made potato leek soup for dinner tonight and ye gads was it good. Hrrrm.

I'm annoyed. I am hoping to finally get up to HMB this weekend to see the cousins (next week is spring break), and suddenly everyone is all sniffly. Phooey.

I would probably chuck the bread and propose an open relationship with pasta and potatoes.

I don't frequent the music thread, but has this been talked about? Journey (yes, Journey) has a new Steve Perry, only he's a wee Filipino dude, discovered by Neal Schon on Youtube?? [link] He's perfect. It's cracking my shit up. I only just found out because he looks exactly like a friend of mine, who is getting all kinds of teasing.

I totally remember having to miss seeing Journey in concert in Hawaii on Jan 11, 1987 because I had to start working at the nerd factory! And I never did get to see them in concert!

The debut concert - Festival de Viña 2008, Chile. If you want to see all the concert in 3 high quality videos go to:

eating out wouldn't count, right?

That's what Elliot Spitzer said, right?

FCM: potatoes, bread, pasta

Easy peasy. F: pasta C: bread M: potatoes

With my stupid food issues, I've had to divorce all breads and pasta made from wheat. And I suffer the next day for a potato, though sometimes, I decide it's worth it.

We've discovered some pastas made with rice, though, so my devotion to white food has not gone completely unrequited.

Plei, I was thinking of you and ita on Friday when we had a poutine disaster. They layered it up with some kind of meat, shredded cheese, and then no sauce. When we asked about it they were all "oh, yeah, we were out of gravy." This is the problem with people serving poutine who don't even know what it is.

We did have some scrumptious beer battered pickles (who knew?) and potatoe ravioli with greens and cannellini that the waitress accidentally ordered instead of the poutine in the first place that was delish. So I'll be going back to the place, but not for any $12 cheese fries.
