We ate a couple burgers and some fries from McDonald's on our way to Columbus to see the incomperable Vance Gilbert at the Columbus Music Hall. For those not familiar with Vance (Friday was Wendy's first time seeing him), he is a folk singer/songwriter and…

Tonight's dinner was party food as we attended the surprise birthday party of a friend of ours (happy birthday, Kristy!). Each person was asked to bring some food to share, so we brought puff pastry rounds with walnuts and camembert cheese. While we were at…

After our final scuba class, we were too tired to cook anything. We dined on some food brought to us by our neighbors to celebrate Chinese New Year.

We're not sure what the items are called, but one was a fried dough pocket with a savory flavor. The other was a rice, fish, and meat mixture wrapped in large leaves and tied with string. We were instructed to boil the leave-wrapped items then remove the string & leaves, to enjoy with soy sauce. The fried items were ready to eat.

Both were delicious! Does anyone know the names of either of these items?

Tonight's meal was simple. VERY simple. Nothing exciting… Just meatloaf dressed up with some hoisin sauce before it was baked. Nothing else; just two thick slices of meatloaf on a plate. BORING.

Tonight, we met friends at Taj Mahal, a local Indian restaurant. Wendy & I have been semi-regulars at "the Taj" since we discovered it almost a year ago. Their food is well prepared and affordable.

Wendy had a Chicken Birani and I have Paneer Makanni, along with a Bahtura (Wendy's favorite) and a Naan for me.

Tonight we dined on a one-skillet dish of chunked chicken and rice in a garlic sauce that Wendy put together. She also prepared a spinach salad with it. This "eating at home" stuff is pretty well working out, though Wendy & I are yet to…
