BRUNCH IRISH/ITALIAN STYLE

 





The Women's Auxillary of the Galileo Italian Club sponsored a Sunday brunch this Saint Patricks Day. These events are a great way to eat a whole lot of food. This particular picture shows the omelete station to the right and in the center is a combination of home made and store bought pastries. I partook of both stations.


There was an early visit from the Easter Bunny today. It was kind of fun to see young children getting excited to see an oversized bunny hopping around the club. This was a fun and tasty event.

76 TROMBONES


Dinner and a show was on the menu tonight. We love going to our local playhouse and seeing plays. This weekend was one of my all time favorites; The Music Man. I was standing by as an understudy just in case one of the performers needed a break. I do know this musical word for word and song for song. We had a nice dinner beforehand. The picture is a little sub-par because the lighting was pretty dim. This stuffed pork chop was perfect.


They never called me up on stage but it still was a very enjoyable night.

ANNIBIRTHDAY


 I got married on my birthday. It is convenient and I am guaranteed not to forget the date. We returned to Originial Joe's 'North Beach' in San Francisco to celebrate this occasion. My parking karma was in full swing evident by the metered parking spot right in front.



Pork chops & raviolis for me and short ribs for my bride that I married 31 years ago. Originial Joe's is not the most fancy restaurant in San Francisco but what they do, they do in style. Everything was delicous. Ms. Goofy ordered her favorite ooey gooey butter cake and I; gelato spumoni.





We had a blast. This was the perfect way to celebrate our special day. We understand they are opening a new Originial Joe's in Walnut Creek. We look forward to giving it a try.

SRF



It is that time of year again. For those of you that know; know. It is that time of year that Costco sells Snake River Farms corned beef. These are American Wagyu beef rounds that have been corned. (not corned brisket). They are so very special. We always buy a couple and put some in the freezer. Yummy!!!!

BACON MUSTARD


Smokey maple bacon mustard is on the plate today. This is a very good rendering of a real bacon infused product. Terrapin Ridge Farms actually uses bacon in their offerings. It is a tad sweet for my preference but it has all the right moves otherwise of maple, smoke, mustard and of course bacon. I like it.  I need to make a sandwich.

SPUMONI


I do like my spumoni. If it is offered on the menu, I will order it. It is interesting to see what I will get. I have seen many variations of spumoni. I do not think there is a correct spumoni. I do remember spumoni as a child being vanilla ice cream (only) with nuts and unidentifiable mixed dried fruts. I did not like it back then. Tastes change and now I am on a quest to find the best.

APPLE MAPLE BACON JAM


 

It does not get any better than this. Breakfast consisting of leftover cornbread smothered with apple maple bacon jam and coffee. This particular product has flecks of real bacon throughout. It is a great way to start out the day.
