What delectable, sweet wonders will it hold!

A hot dog. A red bean bun. A curry donut. Something with a jalapeno on it. This box is what crushing disappointment looks like.

We had a patriotic feast of chicken fricassee and biscuits, Abe Lincoln’s favorite meal!

We consumed this while watching “Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln” on YouTube.
That stuff was heavy. I’ll guarantee you Honest Abe wasn’t splitting any rails after eating that stuff.

Halvah! Especially with pistachios…crumbly, nutty, creamy GOODNESS!

They know what’s what.

Unless you desire to experience bloat along the lines of a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade balloon, or perhaps a small blimp, I would recommend avoiding this dish.

Their hot and sour soup is the BOMB!

That’s a good Baptist breakfast!

A casualty of COVID…the weird and wonderful Angelo and Vinci’s in Fullerton. The food was never of world-beating quality, but the decor made the experience of eating there great fun.

My goal is to try every type of ramen sold in the local Japanese grocery store. This one had no English anywhere on the package, so if there were cooking instructions, but how hard could it be? It’s cheap ramen.

Look how simple and organized everything is! This is gonna be *so* good!

Something horrible happened. It was inedible. I was so disappointed.
The ongoing renovations on the Queen Mary have really improved the place. This room looked spectacular.

So much beautiful woodwork everywhere, and nary a squared off corner in sight.

Art deco at its finest.

The Queen Mary is really a very special place. It’s like a real-life time travel.

The food was great and the price included ship admission and parking, so we had the run of the place after.


There were plenty of holiday photo ops!

Beautiful art deco frosted glass panels. Glorious.

It was a nice, atmospheric, foggy day. You could almost imagine you were on a voyage.
