Better Late Than Never?

Ah … I’m so so so late in doing some updates. I’m writing this on May 1, but it actually reflects the first Top Chef back from Austria on April 7. Some names of dishes and descriptions are lost to memory. But photos exist (mostly). Deal with it. For TC tonight, we didn’t really have […]

Unfortunately I am entirely exhausted at the moment and can’t begin to respond, as I think the trip is catching up with me.

The flight attendant just brought me a Coca Cola Light, and “Delicious Treats.” On the left, in the yellow package, are Cheese Biscuits. They’re light, airy, and crispy with a pleasant cheddar flavor. The ingredients include colors E100, E160b, and […]
