SUNDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Pancakes with syrup and applesauce
Morning Snack: Pancake sandwiches with penuche frosting and chocolate chips. This was a spur-of-the-moment decision as there were some leftover pancakes just sitting there at the same time Suzanne decided that a batch of frosting wasn’t properly spreadable and decided to make another. These were fantastic.

Lunch: Leftover pizza rolls
Afternoon snack: Hot cocoa. Coke zero.
Dinner: Burger stuffed with gorgonzolla, topped with saute’d onions and in a bun made from the pizza roll recipe. I tried something I’ve wanted to do for a while: cook the stuffed burgers sous vide. It was a successful experiment, but I should have charred them more at the end.
I also added some mozarella to try to bind the blue cheese, and that was wholly successful.

Dessert: The photo version of the banana blondies with penuche frosting for Flourarrangements

SATURDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Donuts from Happy Donuts. Not the one on San Pablo near Gilman, but the one on Gilman near San Pablo. Just in case there is any confusion. This one is way better. Of all the donut shops in this part of town, it has the darkest chocolate icing. Nice folks, too.
Lunch: Leftover Mac&Cheese
Afternoon snack: Straciatella gelato from Caravaggio in Berkeley

Dinner: Ribs and potato salad at friend’s house. Delicious!

SATURDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Custard-filled chocolate bar from All-Star doughnuts
Lunch: Leftover buttermilk chicken on top of Eliza’s leftover fried rice
Afternoon snack:A few chocolate chips. Coke zero.
Dinner: Fondue. One, classic, with grueyere, another that was cheddar with applesauce. Supposed to be apple-butter, but we were out, so Suzanne reduced some applesauce down. The cheese melted in a weird way, but the flavor was nice.
Dessert: Chocolate fondue. Nice with the Guittard chocolate. Make a double recipe for 8. Tessa was quite a fan.

SUNDAY I ATE

Lunch: Costco hot dog

Dessert: A Sharffen-Berger chocolate bar santa left in my stocking. Good choice, Mr. Claus.
