Cool, another post...

Wow, two days in a row. I'm impressed with myself. Heh,heh. Okay I want to recommend a place that I have been telling everybody. A buddy of mine told me about it, and I remember the former football coach of Tampa bay and Oakland Jon Gruden talking about the place on tv once, raving about how good their chicken sandwich is. Can you guesss the place? It's Chick-fila. And their Chicken sandwich is really good and healthy too. Also their chicken tortilla soup is amazing. i know that its a chain that is primarily in the South(you guys over there are so lucky) and unfortunately there isn't too many in the los angeles area. Anyways i hope they will expand into the San gabriel valley. That would be so cool. So check them out. They are closed on Sundays(which I think is pretty awesome) They got a pretty cool site too with a bunch of merchandise and personal stories from patrons. I can't wait for this friday cause i'll be having some of that delicious chicken.

I gotta post more often...

I'm gonna try to post more often, but we shall see. Anyways, I'm glad that Andrew Zimmern is exploring American cities on his show Bizarre foods. I caught a bit of last nights episode in Seattle, it was pretty cool. The landscape there was amazing. I always like how he tries to talk about how communities can help sustain themselves and others in need by growing food locally. Some people think his show is just for the shock value of eating "strange" things but I think its more than that. I like that he is giving a broader message to the public through his show.

Could have been better...

My turducen was okay, it was somewhat dry. I tried to baste it as best as I could. I probably should have cooked it longer than it said too. It still tasted good, especially the duck part, but I think I could have done a better job.

Cajun food

I recently ordered some Cajun food online. It came in on Friday and from what I had so far it is delicious. The craw fish boudin was good. In fact I'm gonna cook some up today. Can't wait. The alligator was good. I'm going to have the turduchen on Christmas eve. the website is Cajungrocer.com. It is well worth a visit.

It's been awhile...

Well, this month of November has had some good TV believe or not. I have been watching V the series about aliens coming to earth. It is a remake of the series from the 80's some of you may remember.(check Youtube for the scene where the woman gives birth to an alien baby, it is freakin hilarious!) Also a remake of the Prisoner was just shown on AMC. There was a alot of bad reviews on it, but I liked it. It was confusing and weird, but thought provoking too. Of course I have been watching Dexter as well. I don't think this season is as good as the others, but I must say there have been some good surprises. Hopefully it ends with a good finish.
So check out that alien birth scene from the original V. You are either going to be disgusted or die laughing at how the baby looks.

From generation to generation

I am currently reading a book by Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt called Dracula: The un-dead.
Stoker is a direct descendent of Bram Stoker who wrote the original Dracula. I think its pretty cool that after all this time a book was written by someone who is descended from Bram Stoker. But there is am sure added pressure on Dacre to do well with this book. From what I have read so far it is pretty good. The first time I heard that the actress Mariel Hemingway was descended from Ernest I was shocked. I believe even Anne Rice has a son that is also an author. But there are many who live in obscurity and are only found out about their heritage through chance. So chances are if you see someones last name that looks famous it maybe...or not. Ha!
