And it's a good thing. Work this week required rather a bit of brainpower. A long project that is stimulating to the sleuth in me but would likely be intensely boring in description so I won't subject you to that. Let's just say: minutia. Minutia, airplanes, parts fitting together properly.
And so now I can barely spell, and will not take long here.
As a matter of fact I had something to say but it's left me. Check the baseball standings. Be friendly to your neighbors. Have a good holiday.

P.S. OK, just remembered. The souffle poll. Having had three brave souls vote (thanks for visiting -- I love you), 'tis perhaps not a representative sample. Still: 66% for chocolate; 33% for lemon.

More St. Louis TV Fame
So, Alton Brown, on his road show "Feasting on Asphalt," ate at Fast Eddies and Pie Town Stomping Grounds in Alton (with a whole fun goofy thing about the pronunciation differences), and then went on a donut tour of the 'Lou. Cool. Pie Town, not everyone knows about it I'm guessing, is in a tucked-away part of Alton near to where I lived in Bethalto. I went there rather a lot, only place within five miles making espresso. Two observations from Mr. Brown: Fast Eddies makes the only chicken wings worth eating he's ever had (that's the Chick on a Stick, BTW), and Pie Town the only pecan pie north of the Mason-Dixon line he's ever had that stands up to scrutiny. As to the donuts, that was very fun. I've looked for a list of the ones he visited but no luck so far. Definitely he went to World's Fair and Drive-In Donuts.
