Peckerwood Cafe: Open for Business. Lets Talk About Food.

By

 



Yes, you read that right. We are opening the cafe for business. We will meet here 2 or 3 nights a week and discuss food, what we ate that day, what we love to eat, diets, recipes for food and drinks, restaurants, tips, and food stories. If it has to do with food, bring it here. I have yet to iron out which days for this post would be best but feel free to add some suggestions you would love to see on these posts. If we post recipes from sites please post a photo to keep the thread colorful and appetizing. If you have a recipe you like but want to ask our opinions, that is great. We love and talk about the food here a lot, so why not get together and eat!

So the questions I have for our Inaugural Post are these:

  • Do you like to cook?
  • What topics would you love to have on the days this is posted?
  • Would you like to become a better cook?
  • Top Three Ethnic Foods you love?
  • How old were you when you started cooking?
  • What type of diet are you on? 
  • What would you like to see on these posts?
  • Your signature dish?
  • Favorite Beverage?
  • If you could go to three restaurants in the entire world, what would they be?
This is a way to get to know each other better through food. One of the ways I show people that I love and care about them is to nurture them with food. My kitchen is a place people love to gather because I purposely decorated it to be inviting and comforting. 

My food journey started at 5 years old, making scrambled cheese eggs for myself, and I found something I have loved ever since. I have become an excellent cook, and over the years, I have many recipes I invented and some favorites from the internet. I would love to get even better at cooking and growing food, but I need more time to maintain a garden. My top 3 ethnic foods are Mexican, Spanish, and French, though they are closely followed by various others. There is no food type I don't like, and I can't follow any kind of diet that restricts anything. I just love to eat everything, so that ain't happening. My signature dishes may be tamales, cassoulet, and paella. I love red wine and martinis. I would like to try so many restaurants it is hard to name three, from food carts to fancypants Michelin-starred places.

There is my story; how about yours?

  Here we are: the shortest day of the year, the longest night. Nature is slowly but surely continuing its cycle of rebirth and we will see brighter days ahead. It's the perfect time to reflect on the past year and consider what kind of light you'd like to bring into your life. A time of hope and renewal. I wish you all a happy Solstice!

OPEN POST: Manor Music Monday With Barbara Cartland!

By

Are you off work yet? Are you ready to throw a swingin' party? That means making party music mixes, right? And, yes, you must throw in a WTF song in the middle of the mix just to mess with everyone. For example, say you're throwing a New Years Eve party with a bunch of cooler-than-cool jazz or house music tracks; in the middle if it, throw in this song . I guarantee everyone will squeal with delight. In fact, throwing that song into any mix is always a good move.  Want more ideas for WTF songs to drop into your mixes? DJ Li'l Scratch has got you covered. But first, let's pause for a moment. This is important. Why? Because this is the definition of beauty: The face: like a pale, English Cream Custard (which is just a bit overcooked). The jewelry: made from the finest diamonelles money can buy. The eyes: with their exquisite baby tarantula eyelashes (the eye shadow is their after-birth). I'm overcome, I can barely breathe. And, no, this is not RichBitch. She is, of c...

OPEN POST: Merii Kurisumasu めりーくりすます! Or Christmas In Japan Is For Couples!

By

Christmas is celebrated differently in Japan, yet much of it is recognizable. We see beautiful lights, Santas, and  decorated trees, and it is a time for getting together. But it diverges there because Christmas in Japan is for couples.  They exchange gifts and cozy up for romance. Though American food is preferred, KFC is  preferred ; it can get expensive, so they will have tasty Japanese romantic dinners or something delicious and homecooked.  It is common to see couples holding hands flushed with love and happiness. It is like Valentine's Day except on Decemeber 25th. Only about 2% of the Japanese people call themselves Christians, so it would make sense to carve out their own traditions and make this holiday something unique to them and reflects their culture.  Christmas Eve is for  kurisumasu ke—ki , a sweet sponge cake with filling, but the next day is for dressing up, making fancy dinner reservations, and staring into the eyes of your "ride or d...
