I heart pizza.
I enjoy making my own really-- my favourite toppings are all just depending on my mood of the pizza. I like making...
1. a BBQ chicken with red onions and cilantro
2. meatball, marinana (that I make in 20 min), fresh basil, with mozz.
3. artichoke hearts, calmative olives, basil, roasted peppers, spinach, feta cheese, parm on a pesto.
4. roasted garlic, spinach, parm/mozz, with o/o
and my favourite place here in ABQ is Pizza by the Slice-- they make some killer thin sliced pizza with some really great green chili. MMM.

This is a problem because there are laws that require food handlers to wear latex or vinyl gloves. If you are dining out and you see anyone handling food with bare hands, call a Manager right away and complain. If a bartender or cocktail server is not wearing gloves they need to use tongs. This is not optional this is the law. There are so many ways to make people sick in the food industry that we as consumers need to call people out on bad practice. As for menu's ok, that is a really disgusting concept that a menu can be filthy, but I can see where that would happen. Carry Purell or something like this and wash your hands everyone. Take no chances. There is too much bacteria out there.

Oh lucky you! Throw us a recipe!
Do you have the red/orange "Flame" color? I love that collection. That was a tough choice for me when it came to color but I went with the indigo blue because it looks so French country authentic. Red is hard to resist though.

I enjoy cooking fish in banana leaves.

Ti leaves are hard to find! Banana leaves can be hard to find in some places too. I believe that the Ti plant is smaller than a Banana tree but then again I have seen some small Banana tree's on the islands so I guess it all depends on the species of the tree.
OH and HI btw-- I've been so bleeping busy with school this week -- I have 4 tests, 1 final tomorrow, and working on putting a resume together as well.
We made meatballs yesterday and had subs-- very tasty.
Now I move on to other threads I've missed in the past few days, sip some tea, and start studying again. Hope all my foodie friends are doing wonderful today.
Best.
