The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Mixed bag Monday.
Good news: I didn't get fired today.
Bad news: No annual company bonuses next month.
Good news: I just saw the first hummingbird of the season at my feeder.
Good/bad news: the new construction just up the road is going to be a Chick-fil-a. Come July my waistline and my budget are doooooooomed.
eta: Winstead's is no big whoop.

Re: Kuma's Corner's burgers (the Chicago representative on the Food Network magazine list upthread)--the Burger of the Month for May is the Swine Flu! From a local foodie blog I saw this info at:
It started with fried tortilla strips, topped with chorizo hash, roasted green chile, pico de gallo, fresh cilantro and then there's a touch of like this cream based sauce that was pretty amazing.
And the waiters/waitresses are all wearing masks around their necks or on their foreheads.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Okay, I'm pretty proud of dinner tonight. Spinach and feta chicken sausage, onion, mushroom, and asparagus on top, and the whole thing on top of rosemary prosciutto corn cakes.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I want Dana's dinner!
Or a hamburger.
My favorite burger in SF is at Mo's. I like the Bellybuster.
Awesome things about Mo's: fresh ground beef (you see them grinding it); they get their buns made especially for them; they make their own mayo; flame grilled; amazing toppings.
Bellybuster comes with mushrooms sauteed in white wine.
