the food post

maybe i do not want baklava for my birthday... maybe that is because i have turned this city over looking for greek baklava and have decided it does not exist. i also might have bought a small amount of lebanese baklawa (not a typo) and while it is nice it does not taste like greek baklava. and so... maybe doughnuts... that sounds good... there's just something wierd about eating a cake between two people (not matter how tiny it is) especially when the person who is not you is on a diet and will leave you to finish most of the cake yourself.

jesse and i picked up a menu from Obento on the way to the movies last night. it has a picture of the sushi bento box which we have both decided is what we want. this afternoon i asked him if i could trade him my shrimp nigiri for something else of his. he said yes then ,"Do i need to point out the absurdity of arranging food negotiations a week before going to a restaurant?" well...i don't like cold shrimp...

on other food notes... i just made a banana walnut bread. i'm pleased with myself. i'm trying to use up the ungodly amount of baking supplies we have. sugar/flour that stuff. and also used up the yellowing (i like green ) bananas and the walnuts that have been sitting around (i think )since i made peter a carrot cake in december. and so...yes i am pleased with myself. *bows*
