"According to a poll by food/drink critic Adam Lapetina, and published by the travel and adventure website Thrillist, the Venezuelan arepa is in the top position in a list of 18 countries’ breakfast, classified regarding their nutrients.

Russia, Myanmar, Australia, France and Japan, among others, are part of the top 18 in which Venezuela reached the main place.

“Venezuela’s breakfast is all about salt, starch, meat, fruit, and cheese, and that’s what makes it the best breakfast in the world”, is the reason why Venezuelan gastronomy was chosen.

Lapetina also commended the arepa because of its endless combinations. “Grilled chorizo, arepas filled with super-savory white cheese, chicken, avocados, and eggs are all guaranteed to keep you full until dinner…” The arepa is therefore one of the world’s most versatile meals.

The arepa, made of corn flour, is the queen of breakfast and also an remarkable side for main dishes, for lunch or dinner, whether fried or baked."

This poll was made seven years ago, but Venezuelan arepas are still the best thing in this world!...

Venezuela... My country... My home... My love... I love you, Venezuela!..










This is the best flour to make arepas... Another Venezuelan pride:




If you can buy "Harina PAN" in your country, give it a try and make your arepas!... You will love them and adopt them as yours!...

When you order food at a restaurant, they bring a plate and unless it's an all you can eat, that plate of food 'is' your meal. Eat the food and you're done.
Dinner at my house usually has selections with enough food for 3 meals.
I'm taking issue with that... because... I have the ability to eat and eat and eat with no restraint.
For this holiday season, I'm asking not to be on a 'see food' diet.
Take the surplus food away and I'll only eat what's on my plate, nothing more.

When I commuted from Miami, I was in the car at least one hour every morning usually listening to the local Classic Rock station. The announcer is friends with the owner of a famous coal fired pizza establishment that has several stores in South Florida.
From time-to-time they would talk about pizza... ingredients, method of cooking and cost of the raw materials that went into the making of pizza. According to what they were saying, surprisingly a 16" cheese pizza had only a few dollars of materials (dough, cheese, tomato sauce) in the making and sells for around $15. Adding a few toppings could drive the price to $20.
I grew up a few blocks away from two of the best pizza parlors in Miami and a bit picky to the style of my favorite. Thin crust.
Now, I'm 40 miles north of my old location and surrounded by a few 'corporate' style Italian restaurants. For the most part, pizza here is lacking. There is one place a few miles away that does the same style as I had in Miami and for a few years did a Monday special 18" thin crust pizza for $10. Times change and after their COVID shutdown the price went up to $12. Understandable and I consider it a deal.

Looking for the perfect pizza had me experimenting with homemade pizza. All of my tries were done in a small electric toaster oven, probably less that $30.

Today, I saw an article about the best pizza ovens for home use. The cheapest was $50 and the most expensive being $1,500. I'm disappointed as the $1,500 model only does a 12" pizza!

All I can say right now is... forgettaboutit

in the uk they have certain days for certain meals ,,like friday is fish n chips and sunday is a full blown sunday dinner with roast beef yorkshire pudding potatoes and veg plus lashings of gravy ,,
so what days are your special meals ????

Pumpkins were marked down to $1 on Sunday so we picked a big one, sliced it into small pieces to refrigerate. Collecting the seeds and putting them in the oven to dry, I've got that for a snack tonight.
Making pumpkin bread is next on the list of baking projects this weekend.

I'm in rotation to work every third Saturday but this weekend, I had a client meeting on a jobsite and our draftsman took a few personal days off so I did some my own drawings.
Getting back home during daylight hours is a plus!

More trucks in the roadway as they continued to do a repair on the water mains that haunted the community this week.

In September, I did a blog about my experiments in baking... it was a big cornbread pastry with guava and cream cheese in the middle. The ingredients were fine, it's the way I ran a heavy layer of filling that made the loaf fall apart.

Not to have another failure, I bought a cupcake tray and a package of paper liners. My energy level is up... I'm psyched into making some cornbread guava and cream cheese cupcakes, mini version this time and I'll stir up batter (and not political trouble) to improve the success of this baking experiment.



I don't want THIS to happen again:
