If you don't like breaded and deep fried food, you probably should skip this, because it's all about what you don't like. M&M Meat Shops sells a bag of about 20-25 jalepeno peppers with their innards removed, cheese inside them, and a breaded coating and a light deep frying for $10. At maybe $0.50 each, these little guys aren't cheap, but are they ever tasty. They're ready in ~15 minutes, you only need to preheat the oven to 450 and then let them spend 6 minutes per side cooking with a turnover in the middle. I'm sure there are those of you out there who aren't into spicy food - and the mere word jalepeno is enough to make you cringe in fear. Believe it or not, these little darlings aren't spicy. You can taste the jalepeno flavor in them, but you don't get any lingering burn from them at all. They are a little on the "heavy" side with the cheese and the slightly-oily breaded coating, but they're supposed to be an appetizer after all. When you first pull them out of the oven, give them a few minutes to cool down before you bite into them - the cheese tends to launch itself out the side, burning your hand / cheek / lips / mouth. Cheese can also stick to your skin like napalm when it's hot and melted - you've been warned! These tasty delights are also very addictive. Be warned. |

According to MarketWatch, Google has joined the S&P 500. Read the story here. How will this affect the S&P 500? Is the internet too volatile to drop into something brick-and-mortar like the S&P 500? |

Last night a friend and I decided to have dinner with the Captain - Captain Eli's, that is. Captain Eli's is famous for great fish and chips, lots of karaoke, and a stabbing way back when. Thankfully the karaoke and stabbings don't go hand in hand, and around supper time you're safe from both. :-) Located in the strip mall on Young Street in north end Halifax, just up from the Eastlink Building and across from the Superstore, it's out of the way of downtown and other people attractors such as the business park(s) and some of the big-box chain stores. However, there does seem to be a loose-knit group of restaurants/bars in the area (Pizza Hut, Steak and Stein, The Lion's Head, Tarek's, Subway, etc).

Tonight a group of us headed down to The Old Triangle (website at http://www.oldtriangle.com/) for some food and ale. Thursday nights are usually pretty packed, with a wide variety of people and things to be seen. There's bands later on in the evening, and everyone has a good time. Well, not everyone. |

Ever have one of those mornings when you wake up, and just _know_ you're starving and have to have food? Not the type of morning where you're completely hung over or anything, but just completely ravenous? Today was one of those mornings. I knew from the moment I woke up that food was not optional, it was a requirement. After rifling through the kitchen looking for edibles, deciding it was too hot to use the stove to make anything, and calling my brother to see what his plans were, we headed down to the Split Crow for breakfast, specifically the Split Eggs. |

Today we wnt to Pizza Delight in Bayer's Lake business park. We arrived a few minutes before 1:30 pm, just in time to catch the tail end of the lunch buffet. The buffet - available daily for $7.99 - isn't a bad deal, although the variety is smaller than many buffets.
