tarte tatin

Trader Joe's tarte tatin. I like how the pastry crust turns out (a nice short pastry) although the apples were a little mushy.

cheese please

Somewhat pedestrian yet still tasty cheese (goat, smoked gouda, double cream brie, Mimolette, something Chilean) and fruit board. I think one of my favorite things were the rosemary nuts+cranberries from Trader Joe's.

Pesto flatbread and the coconut curry chicken rolls.

biscotti, or, I don't even drink coffee unless I have class

No seriously, caffeine keeps me up at night and I don't want to get addicted like you.
Biscotti are pretty easy to make-- you can scale this recipe to half etc. Jana and Margaret's idea + execution.
Anise Almond Biscotti from Bon Appetit 1999

pierogie from the Pierogie Kitchen in Roxborough

These pierogie are fully cooked then frozen, so I defrost and then throw them in a pan with butter and caramelized onions. Menupages link including the lunch menu and frozen costs/dozen. I would like to try some of the dessert ones, but haven't gotten around to those or the golabki (stuffed cabbage rolls) yet.

Despite my love of bacon, I don't like their pierogie with bacon inside; the texture of the bacon bits is disruptive in combination with the potato/pasta.
