Save-On Meats
I love how even though this is no longer a butcher's, the new business still kept the sign.

I'm sorry for all the shitty iphone photos lately. It is so dark by the time I get home from most days and I obviously don't carry an SLR with me to work.

my hero
Jeff, before we left for the Halloween party on Saturday night. I dressed up as Twiggy, but since I was with Jeff and I didn't do such a fantastic job on my makeup, everyone just assumed I was Lois Lane. The party was fun, but as neither of us really felt like drinking, we didn't stay terribly late and instead went to get 1 a.m. burgers at Lucy's Diner on Main St.

amazing costumes I recall:
-Captain Picard
-Tank Girl (complete with zeppelin boobs)
-Jabba the Hut and slave-girl Leia
-aging glittery Elvis (complete with beer gut and chest hair)
-ChatRoulette
-a person being eaten by a shark

Hermitage
My mom and Jimm took Jeff and me out to dinner at Hermitage on Robson St. It was fucking delicious and the staff were fantastic! If only I could have an amiable French waiter at every restaurant I went to.
From this blog, I suppose it seems like all I did this week was eat. Which I suppose is kind of true.

roasted red pepper marinara
My entry for the squash cookoff! Parmesan & breadcrumb crusted zucchini sticks with roasted red pepper & basil marinara. I lost spectacularly, but it was a delightful (and delicious) time nonetheless.

bouquet garni
Jeff preparing his epic soup for the cookoff. This is a bouquet garni, which in this case is leek leaves rolled up with sage and bay leaves and thyme and other herbs.
