For documentation's sake, here are our various stops down fatty lane in the past few months:
hot, flaky, comforting chicken pot pie from Claim Jumper
beautiful, delicious birthday cookies by KJV Baked Creations
tallest burger ever topped with applewood smoked bacon, Danish blue cheese, grilled onions, and a fried egg) + sweet potato & parmesan cheese fries from The Counter
fancy wine and fruit/cheese platter during a work meeting hotel stay
(it sure pays to know the right people)
adorable Irish sugar cookies by KJV Baked Creations
pig's ear with crispy kale, pickled cherry peppers, and a fried egg from The Purple Pig (in honor of our dear friend RAC)
rich, decadent bone marrow and herbs with buttered bread, also from TPP
overly indulgent poutine: pork belly, braised veal cheek (which I personally couldn't stomach for emotional reasons), cheese curds, truffle mayo, foie gras mousse, gravy, and sunny side egg from BadHappy Poutine Shop (thanks to my wonderful friend Q who knows my heart and clued me in on this place).
Please don't let all these pictures make you think we've gotten over our health kick (completely). We still consume a good amount of fruits and vegetables on a weekly basis . . . but sometimes we just need to be a little bad happy. :)
