Mid-afternoon snack: Amazing chocolate cake that some wonderful person brought into the office. It was worth running out for some ice cream to top it.

Breakfast: Grapenuts with cranberry juice
Lunch: BBQ-bacon-cheeseburger from Digger’s Diner. I had to be in the neighborhood anyway. The BBQ sauce was good. The service was friendly. What’s not to like? Anyone looking to open a restaurant should seriously consider setting up shop around the Hayward public center… there have to be thousands of people working here with only about 2 restaurants they can walk to.
Mid-afternoon snack: Mocha Frappe from Tay Tah Caffe (needed somewhere with Wifi to work) on Solano Avenue in Albany.
Dinner: Rice & beans. Plus some ice cream for dessert.
Abalone is one of those ridiculously simple things to cook: bread it, fry it, eat it. But it seemed worthwhile to write a recipe down. After all, I haven’t cooked it in 15 years, so my skills can get rusty.
Breakfast: toast with peanut butter
Lunch: leftover chili
Dinner: Mac-and-cheese (from The Joy of Cooking)
Breakfast: Some weird date-and-cashew bar that my friend Dean made trying to emulate some $3/bar thing. Really good.
