I'm drinking. 
I have to report, though:
I'm drinking Victory Golden Monkey in a 9.4 million dollar house, on the clock.

I'm eating peanuts.  That big Virginian kind in the can from Marvelous Market.

Would you care to elaborate for the non-cognoscenti like me?

Victory Golden Monkey is fake Belgium beer from PA. It's just that my nick name at work is 'golden monkey' because I'm such an asset to everyone.

Madame et Monsieur, allow me to present: The Brazilian Wax (A working title)! Cachaca, grenadine, Angostura, and Fresca. #include <beer.h> glass by Thinkgeek.com. Bendy straw by Harris Teeter. Kind of settled, but it was a really neat cloudy red gradiant.

Love the bendy straw! The rest, well, sounds interesting. Fresca's not my beverage, though.

Flank steak stuffed with cheese and herbs (from Wegmans), oven-roasted sweet potatoes dipped in Crema Mexicana al Estilo Oaxaca, and frozen creamed spinach.

The end of a hard week.

Eh, it's a decent mixer. Only reason I keep it around.

As for me, I'm picking at the tasty pasta salad I made for lunch at the farm-moving: my favourite eight-color pasta (Tri-colour? HA!), roasted red peppers, marinated artichoke, and bag tuna, with a tasty honey cider/Napa mustard vinaigrette.

Heh, a stuffed flank steak made an absolute fool out of me about two weeks ago...maybe someday I'll post the harrowing tale.

Edited to admit: Now that I count, it might be only six color. It's still cool though...I guess....

Two chocolate marscapone cookies from Breadline and a coffee from M.E. Swing's. After-lunch office snack of champions! Champions would would otherwise go totally psycho all over everybody, or stash a bottle of Jack behind the hardware cabinet.

I kid, of course. Obviously.

Flavored popcorn from a big tin.

For some reason I like this stuff ( you know, "butter", "caramel" and "cheese") and every year my company sends tins to our lesser clients and suppliers (our better firends get something nicer). And every year we get a sample tin around now. And every year it seems that I am just starting soem sort of diet on the day it arrives.

At least it won't last long.

Black radish on Icelandic butter smeard baguette. BTW I tried Icelandic lamb for the 1st time and highly recommend it. It's in season now through December and is available at Whole Foods. It's dificult for me to describe the best I can do is say lamb-y but not game-y and somehow or other there is an almost grassy flavor huh.gif

A [Tuesday] Bagel Day cinnamon-raisin bagel, and some pod coffee. Fifth floor got a new Keurig machine! It's tasty again! Rock on!! *air guitar solo*

I agree. Got a lamb chop (shoulder) and cooked it for lunch the other day and it was delicious. I am thinking of a boned leg for Saturday dinner this week.

Perfectly prepared chicken sandwich from the Galileo Grill (which was very empty at 1:00).

A sandwich -- I made a pumpkin focaccia (sort of) yesterday. The bread sliced and toasted. There's a bit of artichoke and sun-dried tomato spread on both slices of bread. Sliced tomatoes andd avocado, spinach, gruyere, and a touch of salt and pepper. YUM!

Awesome, especially considering your screenname.

Scotch? Not a vegetable, although I'd love to see *that* food pyramid.

Hangar One Buddha's Hand (citrus vodka). Just the thing to warm me up after spending all freakin' day in the rain. wink.gif

Broke in my new silpat mat with squashblossom stuffed with manouri cheese from last night's tasting. It worked beautifully but could have used a couple of more minutes under the broiler.

Wafting in the background is the aroma of garlic and tomatoes cooked in panchetta....
