Delicious and Filling. Matty says the secret is in using “The Good Oil” and plenty of cheese when you make the mudiga. Excellent roll from Virgilio’s.

Here’s a tip for you that Mark Ring shared with me.
After you steam your lobster snip the tips off the claws with some sturdy kitchen shears and drain the water out over the sink. It will make the eating and clean up after dinner a snap and saves a mess.

Alexandra being a fan of all things Twin Lights had these cool Twin Lights Postcards made up. They are for sale at Alexandra’s Bread for a meager 75 cents. That’s short money Homie! I’m thinking about buying a couple and framing them up for a cool piece of local art.

When I stopped by Alexandra’s Bread the other day I noticed the lack of high tech kitchen gadgetry. Everything is done old school. This scale is out back and when I saw it I initially thought it was just for show until Alexandra started weighing out portions of dried cranberries on it.
No digital scale here baby, just Old School Goodness!

Alexandra and John spend time in Lunenburgh where they discovered these cool lobster buoy decorations. I’ve been sayinng it over and over since walking through the other day. The whole bakery is visually beautiful. There is so much to look at and eat. The couple ought to go into design because they obviously have a great eye for beauty and simplicity.
