The cupcake shop I usually go to on the weekends had a special Patriotic-looking cupcake for Memorial Day, so of course I had to bring one home to try today…
It has an amazing Strawberry-Cream Cheese filling, and now I wish they had this one all the time. - Hopefully they’ll make it again for the Fourth of July.

February 6th, 2012: Mugshot Monday: A rare ‘Monday off’ edition!
Currently out to lunch, after a very lazy morning/early afternoon… I can’t believe I lasted until 2:30pm without coffee!!! [I’ve been trying to post this since then, but their wifi’s wonky here.]
————-
UPDATE: Because I really love how well this shot came out (and the shots I tried to take of the moon earlier didn’t come out well), I’ve decided to also make this my Project 365 submission for today.  
Also, because this next shot came out much better than planned, here’s a great photo of the lunch I had with my coffee…

….It’s the “Heinz 57 Sauce” Burger… YUM!!!

January 22nd, 2012 [Part 1]: After missing out both last weekend and yesterday, I did finally make it to my favorite breakfast spot, Nita’s, today!  

Here’s a lesson that I know thedeependofthepool will appreciate: *Always* be nice to your waitress! (and of course, “Don’t move your cup!”) …Because I go here ALL the time, and have built a great relationship with the waitresses, and the owners (-who also do all of the cooking), I was given an awesome, special breakfast this morning.  

My favorite omelet, the Tuscan, (Bacon, Basil, Tomato, & Fresh Mozzarella), wasn’t listed on the ‘Specials’ board this morning, so I began looking at the other specials on the board, and their new “Reese’s” pancakes (which was *STUFFED* with Chocolate & Peanut Butter Chips) caught my eye.  At the same time, when the owners saw me waiting to be seated, they told my waitress to let me know that even though my omelet wasn’t listed, that they still had the ingredients for it, and had saved enough in case I came in.

-All of this lead to the following conversation with my waitress when I was seated: [For full-effect, you should read her parts in a heavy Eastern-European accent, which she has…]
Her: Did you want your Tuscan?
Me: Oh, I didn’t think you had that today.
Her: Well, they told me they have enough for you, but it’s not up on the board.
Me: Hmm… When I didn’t see it I started looking at the new pancakes, the Reese’s ones… Hmm, now I’m not sure which one to get.
Her: Oooh! How about this, you could get the omelet, and instead of the toast and home fries, we can add the pancakes instead.
Me: [Dumbfounded] Wait, YOU CAN DO THAT?!!!   

…It was my most awesome breakfast EVER! - And, I made sure to give my waitress an even larger tip than usual! (- and I’m always very generous with my tips!)

[I tried uploading this via the Tumblr app over an hour ago, but it was being “difficult”…]
It’s been a while since I’ve posted any Breakfast “Food Porn”, so here’s the final one for 2011… They were all out of my usual favorite omelet, so today I tried a new one from the ‘specials’ board: a Turkey, Broccoli & Cheddar Omelet.
…And since I’m now posting this late (thanks to the App failure) and have already finished it, I can tell you all that it was absolutely delicious! :D

onethousanddays:

This cake right here was OUT OF THIS WORLD.   Thanks to Sara for making it for us! 

I’m reblogging Melissa’s photo of this because she ended up getting a much better shot of the finished product… Words can’t even describe how amazing this tasted! - It’s been over four hours since I ate this, and I think I’m just *now* coming out of the “food coma”!
I should also add that there was a second awesome dessert that unfortunately didn’t get as much of the photo-love, but was just as delicious… Sara’s Cheesecake/Pumpkin Pie (a toffee-covered pumpkin pie *inside* of a pumpkin cheesecake!), which she posted preview shots & the recipe for last week.  
I actually attempted to eat BOTH of these desserts at once… which I believe is what lead to my ‘Coma’! :P

I haven’t ordered these in a while, but since it’s my Pre-Birthday weekend, and I have to work on my actual birthday Monday, and won’t be able to get a good breakfast that day:  it’s time for the Black Forest Crepes [stuffed with Nutella & covered with Sour Cherries] again! 

Now if you’ll excuse me, it’s time for a Food-GASM!!  YUM!!!

[I tried uploading this 2 hours ago, but the phone app was being “difficult”.]
I had promised *someone* that I’d have some ‘Carby & Cheesy’ goodness for them, since they’re currently “eating vicariously through me”, so *this* was my dinner tonight! UNF!
Just one of the many “sacrifices” I make for my Tumblr-friends! :P
