looks like it's another late blog here at MG... seems james and cameron can't be trusted to do it on their own. it's too busy they say. it's been non stop they say. we managed to do them back in the thick of things last fall i say.
i'll leave it at that.
here's the specials :
chickpea masala soup
tomato dill and cream cheese omelette
we had banana muffins... but now we don't
and we do have a few brownies left
we're rockin it oldschool down here today (tomorrow as well).
we got the turntable set up, we're spinning the vinyl (remember vinyl?) ahhh the sweet sweet sound of the needle hitting the record. that snap, crackle and pop. i never realized i missed you so.
now playing : up the junction by the squeeze.
you know you love it. so come on down, bring your LPs. throw 'em on. you'll be surprised at how much you missed it as well... and at how good it makes you feel. mmmmmmm. snap. crackle. pop. i'm outie.
cheers.

Good morning, good morning, good morning...
Today's specials are:
Leek and gruyere scramble
Rosemary white bean soup
Organic blueberry oatmeal muffins
Organic chocolate chip cookies
This weekend I am going to a party on a ship. The nautical theme is so trendy right now. With pretty good reason, I suppose, because the water is a pretty good place. The idea of a party on a ship, even a ship that doesn't leave the dock, is pretty appealing. Ah, this reminds me of a place in the Czech Republic called the Airplane Bar. It's on the outskirts of a city called Olomouc, and it is a real airplane, sitting in a field, that has been made into a bar. You go up those big stairs that lead up to airplanes, and you go in, and you sit in airplane seats and drink drinks. It is an alright place.

hey there...
apologies to anyone who's been chomping at the bit to find out what today's specials are ( and i guess an extra big apology to those of you still waiting to hear tuesdays - give it up, it's not gonna happen ), james is still on BC time, i'm still waking up from my 2 week slumber, and cameron... well he's just cameron.
anyway, here they are :
chilled tomato dill soup
baby spinach and feta scramble
and
vickys lovely strawberry/rhubarb muffins
or her equally lovely banana muffins
so come on in, wake me up (a good swift kick in the ass should do the trick) and have a little snap.
cheers.

Oh, hello again. Here we are again. Back from weddings and vacations and adventures. I hope everyone will come in soon and see us again. Probably tomorrow James will be here and you will be able to see him as a married man.
The omelette today is a cheddar cheese and green onion scramble.
Soup is tomato dill.
And muffins are organic blueberry.
It is both nice to be back at work and nice to have had a vacation... I didn't really need a vacation since I really haven't been working so very much this summer anyways, but it allowed me to cultivate such habits as staying out very late very often, sleeping in, going out for brunch almost every day, and generally spending an amount of money quite disproportionate to the amount of money I was (not) making. It was fun. I did really miss this place, though.
This blog is taking me a long time to write because I am out of practice. I will post it now.

just kill me now.
make it quick.
make it painless.
i can't take the torture of this slow melting.
it's cruel.
it's inhumane.
and well, it's just not fun.
it was 32 (43 with the humidex) degrees at 9am this morning.
its heading for 36 (think that's somewhere around 200 with the humidex).
because of that, we will be closing today at 11am.
sorry about that. i know it seems like we've been closing a lot lately (electrical problems, heat problems, marriages and so on).
but i don't know what else we can do. if you stood in this kitchen for 2 minutes you'd understand (not that i'm assuming you aren't understanding, but if you're not, you will be after that.). it's an oven in there (no pun intended). jacki's cooking eggs right now and we haven't even turned on the griddle yet, she's cooking them right on the counter.
maybe she should just start cooking them right on the table in front of you. that can be our new schtick. table service like nobodies bussines.
anyway, here's the specials for the remaining hour or so we are open :
cold cucumber and mint soup
sauteed leek and cheddar scramble
chocolate chip pancakes
1 organic banana muffin
and 1 organic cranberry and oatmeal muffin
that's it. that's all.
again i apologize for the erratic hours. please bare with us.
things should be back to normal after we get back from james honeymoon (well when james gets back from his honeymoon... i just get back from sitting on my ass at home).
cheers.
