You know how you get free chips with your meal in a Mexican restaurant? Well, here you got a tiny bowl of peanuts, a little pile of sausage, and a plate of snails. We were wimps...none of us willing to try the snails. I went on to have the strangest greek salad of my life while our friend got a giant pot of mussels. And oh, the fine belgian white beer!

To hear you give a review of a restaurant as glowing as this is quite impressive, given your culinary background. I hope everything else is shaping up well (you know nobody tells me anything around here), and I wish you a safe, less taxing trip home. You know, I sure wouldn't mind some take-out from up North on Monday morning. . . I’m happy the travel hassle paid off for you.

Hey...all week Slate has been running a journal by a bike courier named Andrew Weiner <a href="http://slate.msn.com/?id=2058945&entry=2058947">http://slate.msn.com/?id=2058945&entry=2058947</a> I quite like it and can't help wondering if he does this as a regular page. I tried searching his name, to no avail...any idea how else I might find out if he has a regular weblog somewhere? It doesn't seem like Slate is going to tell me.
