Most overhyped foods in London?!

The Borough Market is huge. It is about a 6 minute walk from London Bridge.

Of course, I am going to try making some of these myself. Or, at least, something inspired by them.

----------London"s Viral Chocolate Strawberry
~~~Apparently, the quality of the strawberries is important. That is an issue for me as I mainly have access to strawberries from Aldi's and Walmart. Hmmm.
~~~I don't own a double boiler(though do have access to one). Believe it or not, I also don't own a microwave ... a lot of my friends don't either.
-----Such a simple thing. I will enjoy making it for Hombre de Oro this weekend.

-----Hainan Chicken Rice
Goal: To make mine not bland.
Goal: To find a recipe of a similar vein from Singapore.

-----Is there a copycat recipe for Tacos Padre fish tacos??


-----I can't imagine a Honey-Truffle sandwich. I will explore the idea of honey and truffle together. The one in the video has loads of roast pork and aged parmesan.

----------I must do some "crumbles" for breakfast.
~~~Apple and Berry Breakfast Crumble

Eat more carp because it's invasive! Apparently, it makes good dog food.

Daughter: Staring contest! Mommy: You blinked. Daughter: You blinked, too. Mommy: Why didn't you tell me? Daughter: I didn't see it.

-----Kevin Bacon details his experience of trying to be a regular person for a day. "This sucks."
~~~The interview was for Vanity Fair. I haven't read one of their articles in a while! Maybe I should take up a subscription.
~~~At least, maybe, he had fun wearing the elaborate disguise?
~~~He's been a movie star for four decades!
~~~He has a horror flick that came out today. I am not really into those ... especially since it is described as a "slasher." I wonder how you say the
title.... "MaXXXine."

Tonight I am looking at the work of German expressionist painters(20th century). On the list: - Ernst Barlach - Max Beckmann - Heinrich Campendonk - Lovis Corinth - Otto Dix - Lyonel Feininger - Rudi Feld - Conrad Felixmüller Expressionism= bold and expressive use of color, line, and form. Exploration of themes like spirituality, emotion, and the human condition.

-----Carne Asada Tacos. Flank steak.

Life Lately ...

-----I am on the lookout for new light pasta recipes!

-----Goal: Go on a solo brunch date at least once a month.
-----I don't have a teddy bear to put on my bed or sit on furniture. I must remedy this.
-----Hombre de Oro(Man of Gold) dresses nicely for Church. I, sadly, don't really have dresses. I asked him what color I should get. He looked at me thoughtfully and declared "yellow." That's cool as mustard yellow is my favorite color!

Things I need to research for the kids' St. Patrick's Day Scavenger Hunt ...

-----History of leprechaun sightings. It goes back to the 13th century! -----Leprechauns orginally wore all RED.

Well, I will just start with a Monday and add to this until Friday. Today is March 4th.
I have a very physically tiring job ... so I get a lot of excercise that way. I guess that helps with minimal fitness maitenance ... I have thyroid problems have also been gaining weight from menopause.
Goals: To look nice in a yellow dress for Church. I asked Hombre de Oro (Man of Gold) what color he would like to see me ... a modest, yellow dress. Mustard yellow is my favorite color!
