weird fuckin broccoli, gillian's bread pudding and my third catering gig!



that strange magical green mass there is a species of broccoli. my roommate brought it home with her and even she doesn't know what it's called. isn't that thing crazy looking?

in other news, gillian and i eat ourselves silly. in this case, it was monday night supper. i made russell's green chile casserole with farm fresh ground beef and organic cream of mushroom soup that gillian had. she made this amazing bread pudding with challah bread, cultured butter, farm fresh milk & eggs, dried cranberries and maple whipped cream. holy crap i think i ate all of it. well i tried to at least. it was da bomb. having challah bread around made me miss good bread. there is a lack of it in tucumcari (no bakeries and one supermarket that wouldn't know what good bread was even if it beat the shit out of them). we also had chicken liver pate with toast squares. it was a strange combination of food but it worked because it was all delicious.

so today is tuesday and it was my third catering gig. i made russell's green chile casserole again. it's so simple to make yet so delicious. everyone seems to love it. i also made lime and cilantro coleslaw which is the same as the lime peanut coleslaw but minus the peanuts and jalapenos (peanuts and jalapenos are both acquired tastes and in order to feed a large group of people, some foods need to be neutral). for dessert i made chocolate chip cookies. i took them out the oven 10 minutes before i left the house so they were still warm. don't u want to hire me as your caterer?
