Yeah. Also: Mmmmm.
I mean, that is just so much win!

Foto Friday: Delicious things eaten during recent travels. 23 September 2011 9:09 am
Posted by Tracy in : bread,cheese,consumerism,dessert,eating,fun,Holland,Netherlands,not even vegetarian,photos,random,travel,video , add a commentSo last month Ze Frank blogged a video that made me super-hungry:
EAT from Rick Mereki on Vimeo.
It also inspired me to make a little photocollage of some of the gastronautic highlights of my travels this summer:
So, yeah, that was pretty great. You can click on any of those little images to go to bigger versions on Flickr. Some even have descriptions! Others I may have to write about at greater length some other time, and still others I did not photograph but should describe in glorious detail before they get any more faded in my memory. (Also note that these are only the pictures I took of our trip, which is why I am not in any of them; Peter has the pictures of me going “OMG NOM YES” but they aren’t in a place where I can link to them yet.)
Thank you Thursday: Lentil salad with feta. 20 May 2010 9:21 pm
Posted by Tracy in : cheese,consumerism,food snobbery,photos,pictures,seasonality,summer,sundance,thank you Thursday,vegetarian , add a commentLet me show you a little composition I like to call: “Lentil Salad, F*** Yeah!”
That’s my favorite lentil salad, on a bed of green leaf lettuce and topped with feta cheese. Not just any feta, though, but the nigh-legendary Bulgarian feta. Let me explain. (more…)
Foto Friday: Linguine Alfredo recipe, for Piett. 15 January 2010 11:08 pm
Posted by Tracy in : cheese,convenience,cooking,eating,eugene,family,Holland,hot mess,Netherlands,pasta,photos,pictures,random,recipes,restaurants,vegetarian,work , add a commentSo I’m back from Holland and recovering from the trip, but still pretty freaking tired and nowhere near done uploading and organizing all the pictures I took. Today’s photo post was going to be all about flying fancy-style, but like I said, I haven’t quite got those pictures processed. Instead, I’m going to blog my dinner, which happens to relate back to my trip in more than just the “so tired, can’t get stuff organized” way. You see, on Tuesday night my brother Piett and I made a huge pasta dinner for my parents, my Oma, my aunt Ingrid, uncle Dako, their daughters Stéphanie and Claudia, and Stéphanie’s boyfriend Raymond (to be perfectly fair, Claud made her own food but I was still happy to have something that almost everyone could agree to eat). We cooked 1 1/2 kilos of spaghetti and three different sauces for people to mix and match to their own tastes: tomato-meat, tomato-vegetable sauce, and creamy pesto. Piett was an awesome sous-chef, and somewhere in the chatting over cooking we got to the topic of Alfredo sauce. My basic point was that it’s super-easy, and Piett said he’d like me to show him how to make it some time. While this post is not the video podcast recipe he suggested, it’s a step in that direction.
Linguine Alfredo: it’s what was for my dinner tonight.
