Super-busy this week with many L-A-R-G-E projects going on at work, but I did want to post a quick bite or two for y'all to nosh on while I'm in absentia (see how I work in those cutesy food references?).
- If you haven't already signed up for The Fatted Calf's newsletter, you seriously need to. Their description of this week's Porchetta had me in stitches and salivating, all at once. Besides, how else will you know how large a cooler to bring to the Farmer's Market?
- Don't forget that tonight is "Killer Apps" event at Macy's Union Square (in the Cellar, please). It's starts at 6pm, and chef Stephen Gibbs with demo "killer appetizers" and hors d'oeuvres. $25 admission includes wine and food. I think you can still RSVP to 415.393.3724, but I'm guessing it's OK to show up, too (their ad is still up on Chow Magazine's site). Biggles went to the last event, and said it was fun.
I'm hoping to make it, but may not on accounta what I wrote at the very beginning of this post.
- Go see this play this weekend (or next, if you're so inclined). I'm going on Saturday, and it looks like it's going to be a gut-buster.
- This one is a selfish request. I am taking this site to Movable Type (from TypePad).
If you have any tips, tricks, hints or shortcuts that you've discovered in the process of making such a move yourself (or if you have found some great MT-resource sites), would you kindly please post them in the comments section, or send me an email? I'm quite the neophyte, but really want to add some cool functionality to Gastronomie that I can't make happen in TypePad.
- Finally, my apologies for the delay in getting out this month's newsletter. Those of you subscribed can expect your copy this weekend. I'm including a bonus recipe for Fesenjan (walnut & pomegranate stew) to thank you for your patience. (The newsletter will be the only way to get this recipe!)
Thanks all! I'll be back on Saturday with our regularly scheduled programming!
