I love avocado. plus they are healthy.

thought of you and ube today. Maybe your wife would like ube ice cream.

I am sorry that your bacon was too salty. I get a bad batch like that every once in a while.

When she is in the mood, she asks me to stop at Lutong Pinoy restaurant here in North Miami Beach and pick up a quart of Magnolia, imported from overseas. I use this as an opportunity to pick up some Siaopao (sp) for me.

Your panic pizza looks like the Detroit style, I tried to go back and see why you call it "panic" pizza as it looks like you take the time to prepare it, instead of throwing it all together hilly nilly.

my panic pizza is Detroit style albeit with low skim mozza and not the genuine brick cheese. I follow a recipe for the preparation (pepperoni on bottom, then cheese, then pepperoni, finally sauce on top!). Also I just use low skim mozza for pizza cheese.
I say panic because there’s a song called PANIC IN DETROIT by an old British singer named DAVID BOWIE. I collect tops with David Bowie logos although I’ve not yet found a panic in Detroit top.

the other thing… I really love the pizza. I think it’s ace and I don’t crave pizza outside my house when in my city because I can just cook my own pizza. I walk past 3 highly rated pizza places several times a week and I won’t go to any of them for pizza. I only get pizza with my family when on vacation; else I prefer to just make it at home.

If your Trader Joe’s has this ube, I would feel so thrilled if your wife ended up liking it even more than the Magnolia! Fun new discovery??

I do not have a Trader Joe's in my area, and to me it is not worth the gas to go to the nearest one which is about 15 miles away.

that’s far. I totally empathize. I won’t even drive 4 miles away for groceries and lately I’ve felt lazy about the nicer Safeway 2 miles away when I can walk to the decrepit Safeway that’s a mile from my house.
when I go to Trader Joe’s, it’s paired with a Costco trip, plus a visit to my office P.O. Box. And sometimes my office! Lol
