The one time I ever tried to create those beauts they came out looking decidedly different than anticipated. Can you say "overcooked golfballs"? Nevermind that I'd taken a macaroon course just days earlier ... As for your talkshow, well naturally I'm hoping you'll take me on as your sidekick.

The onion loaf looks delicious. I've never had an onion loaf. <br />I know you are going to have a wonderful time with the adorable Dallas gang, and I'm eagerly awaiting your TX trip.

There is another along the north shore and that's probably the one you've been to. Oh...the HackneyBurger! And the fried onion loaf.

The...This may be the summer I get an actual tattoo. The girls have been trying to get me to get one and I have one I really do want. It's very tiny but holds huge meaning. Then again, I have that aversion to pain so... There was a place the old gang frequented while in college that had the BEST hoagies and Sangria I've ever had. Some of us were back there a few years ago and it was such a disappointment. Sometimes, people should leave things alone. Like good hoagies and delicious Sangria. Loved your post, as usual!
