Like Peas and Toast, A Perfect Marriage

Sam and Alex finally visited! Tacos, pizza, absinthe, French toast, you name it, we ate it. Here is everything exciting we consumed in a week.






The absinthe ban has been lifted in the United States. Look at how Jared's clothes match the bottle. What a pirate.


Just cookin' at home, getting ready for IRON CHEF NYC!!!-- LEMON.


Lemony garlic chicken skewers and wild rice pilaf with oranges and lemons.


Sliders with lemon aioli and preserved lemon.


Lemony pasta salad.


Raspberry lemon ice cream and two lemon pies.














We went to 5ptz which didn't have any food per say, though there was a pub on the corner offering beer and 40 cent oysters that Sam and Alex negated.




Not one of us had been to White Castle before so we made a pilgrimage.






These RANCH Chicken Ringz are thin circles of chicken meat. Like little chickeny doughnuts, they are covered with a light dusting of ranch powder with little flecks of dehydrated parsley. They might have been the best thing we ordered.


Mmmmmmm.


Burgersssssssssssssssssss.


White Castle burgers taste like little puffs of slightly oily, sweetened, yeasty, air. They do not taste like burgers or even beef for that matter; the meat pattie is thinner than a nickel. Alex had one and a half. Jared had three. I had four. Sam had eight. We had to eat lots of greens vegetables the next day to feel better.


Roberta's! Our last meal. Sigh.
