I had hoped that Watergate Salad, a staple of potlucks in the '70s, had disappeared from the planet. I just got an e-mail from GE featuring it [link] The only GE appliance it requires is a refrigerator.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Is that the World's Largest Yard Sale I've seen on HGTV?
No, this one is a little shorter. It runs along U.S. 68 across Kentucky. I am afeared of the traffic.

Now tagless for your comfort.
We're hosting a cookout on Saturday. It's probably going to rain and not hit 50 degrees.

Hey SF-istas! My boss is moving to your vicinity soon and we're putting together some city stuff for her as a going away thing.
Can anyone throw me some recommendations in the way of vegetarian/vegan restaurants? She's something of a foodie, but any favorites would be great to know about.

It's gorgeous today, but looking at the 7-day forecast, they're predicting a lot of rain--big surprise, I know (we're having the rainiest spring since 1921, and so far we're at #10 on the rainiest springs ever list).

I'm a fan of Herbivore. And although I've never been there, there's always Cafe Gratitude.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Cafe Gratitude scares me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
DH is away until very late on Saturday, so there is dog walking, house cleaning and gardening to do. Then a movie on Saturday night. This should not be too bad, since one of our dogs had evidence of fleas when she went to the vet, so this week I washed EVERYTHING. And sprayed and vacuumed everything else.

Just realized I didn't explain quite why Cafe Gratitude scares me. This is their menu: [link] It's fairly typical for a vegan restaurant menu, actually a pretty good selection, but every dish, rather than being named something normal like "Caesar salad," gets a name like "I am dazzling." And you must order by saying, "I am dazzling," and then the server repeats back to you, "You are dazzling."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Ewwwww. Cutesy concepts that you're required to play along with are a NO in restaurant service. Or any other kind of customer service.
