I have mentioned White Lily Flour a few times on this site, and though I’ve only worked with it a handful of times–one of my housemates in College had sorghum molasses and 20 lbs of White Lily shipped up from his relatives in Tennessee–it’s the incontrovertible Deity of Biscuit flour.
So it is with a heavy [...]

Taste of the Taste of the Nation
subtitle: Nesting prepositional phrases = deliciousness
I’m still not sure how it happened, but somehow I got invited to the Media event preceding the Portland Taste of the Nation. Snacks and booze came from:
Simpatica (pate, chicken liver mousse, really good pickles and pickled celery),
Saint Cupcake (toasted coconut & toffee mini-cupcakes, and a chocolate with [...]

Potato Champion: New Food Cart in da hood
I love that the vacant lot on SE 12th and Hawthorne is becoming a nice food cart haven. The list is now:
El Brasero (they own the new white trailer parked under the billboard and are going to move el Brasero operation in there very soon),

“As a dutiful employee of the city of Gresham, I can attest that most of my frost-tipped brethren have the slickest neon green sleds complete with spoilers and tailpipes with the tokyo drift effect built in. I’m unsure about what happens when the grid [...]

Vegan Strip Club
Okay, so I’ve gotten emails from a bunch of people outside the PDX about this guy ‘Mr. Diablo’ and his vegan strip club in NW portland, because there’s a story about it story in the NYTimes.
What wasn’t mentioned is that this asshole tried to have a normal ‘Pirate themed’ vegan restaurant for a little less [...]
Moon Landing fit in PGE Park?
So my roommate is convinced that the Moon Landing didn’t happen. He’s a 9/11 Truther as well, but fortunately his means of argumentation resembles a monologue stolen from a Dadaist/Post Modern play and forced through a potato ricer hung out the window of a bullet train… the shreds of coherence are scattered.
Nonetheless, [...]
Fascintating mashups
You know I love Growabrain. This is why.
This is a mashup by Paul Proulx from Hobnox. He’s done one for Tarantino and Paul Thomas Anderson. Anderson posted the mashup of his movies on his own website.
I’ve basically copied the entire growabrain post, but if you love the Coens and their best movie, the [...]
