Maybe I'll try it that way next batch. Normally I make morcilla with a lot of hot chiles and really thick casings, but I'm always up for new recipes.

That's great but don't become one of those people who thinks they have to put sriracha on everything. Not everything needs to taste like sriracha.

Besides, sriracha is for proles. Sambal oelek is where tha flavor at.

Growing up in SoCal we always drank either Lucky Lager or Stater Brothers beer. The Stater Brothers was the best because it was just a brown can that said "Beer", like their brown bags that said "Dog Food" and brown label jars that said "Pickles" with a little blue ribbon. It was on a price level with Shasta soda.

Boiled Calf's Head (without the Skin).

877. Ingredients. - Calf's Head, water, a little salt, 4 tablespoonfuls of melted butter, 1 tablespoonful of minced parsley, pepper and salt to taste, 1 tablespoonful of lemon-juice.
Mode. - After the head has been thoroughly cleaned, and the brains removed, soak it in warm water to blanch it. Lay the brains also into warm water to soak, and let them remain for about an hour. Put the head into a stewpan, with sufficient cold water to cover it, and when it boils, add a little salt; take off every particle of scum as it rises, and boil the head until perfectly tender. Boil the brains, chop them, and mix with them melted butter, minced parsley, pepper, salt, and lemon-juice in the above proportion. Take up the head, skin the tongue, and put it on a small dish with the brains round it. Have ready some parsley and butter, smother the head with it, and the remainder send to the table in a tureen. Bacon, ham, pickled pork, or a pig's cheek, are indispensable with a calf's head. The brains are sometimes chopped with hard-boiled eggs, and mixed with a little Bechamel or white sauce.
Time. - From 1 1/2 to 2 1/4 hours.
Average cost, according to the season, from 3s to 5s.
Sufficient for 6 or 7 persons.
Seasonable from March to October.
Note. - The liquor in which the head was boiled should be saved: it makes excellent soup, and will be found a nice addition to gravies, &c. Half a calf's head is as frequently served as a whole one, it being a more convenient-sized joint for a small family. It is cooked in the same manner, and served with the same sauces, as in the preceding recipe.

We pay $5.99 for 12 packs of PBR, Hamm's, Olympia, and Busch here. If you're into nasty beer though you can get 24 pack suitcases of Natural Ice for $8.99 or $9.99 depending on which gas station you're buying from. Quarts of Coors, Carta Blanca, etc. are usually 89 to 99 cents. This is a good place for yard beer.

I went to make Bananas Foster tonight and when I went to light my rum I realized it was only 70 proof and wouldn't flame, so no cool light show with desert. On the bright side, the delay from the liquor confusion had the bonus of causing little bits of toffee to form in my caramel which turned out to be really good.

Anyway, two band updates. I think I've come up with a good idea for a name. And we've been propositioned to open for the Joy Formidable when they come through town, which is pretty good considering that we haven't played a single show together yet. So I guess that means that our sound is at least moving in the right direction.

It depends on your locality. Here, there's only Mormon troops. But when I grew up (as a Scout), the troops were run by rocket scientists and aerospace engineers, so while we never once talked about God or social issues, we did spend a lot of time watching napalm strikes at test ranges and being an unsanctioned Air Explorers unit.

Z&Y it is for supper, thanks. We'll probably pass on margaritas since we will be very busy going to museums and such with a 9 year old, but I'm pretty good at following my nose for burritos when I'm in town. Though I've never been able to get over the whole "putting rice in the burrito" thing - that's where the french fries are supposed to go!

Eh, I don't know. I grew up there (still live here) and I don't think that I've ever had a burrito with fries in it. Isn't it a bit much? Maybe I've been missing out on something serious.



Go to a Santana's or a Roberto's, then you'll understand. Some places it's also called a "stoner burrito" or a "surfer burrito". Make sure you get the grilled green onions.

I didn't know there was a Roberto's in Vegas. Actually I didn't know they had really expanded outside of run down old Taco Bell buildings in southern california. Which is incidentally where you find Santana's most of the time.

Does the Roberto's in Vegas offer tacos de sesos? This is the determining factor of it's authenticity. If not, it's either an imposter or that group of resturaunts has fallen sadly in the dozen years I've lived in Nevada.

So today is day 1 of a 161 day gig. So far I haven't even seen a BBQ place. Charlotte is really letting me down.

I also need new luggage, my current big rear end suitcase got all hosed up and may not last many more trips. I need something that will hold a two weeks of clothing, a laptop, boots, and a small pile of tools. I will not be flying that often but I would rather have something that will last a few years.
