Re: TGIF
I didn't like that show at first, but now I love it. It's fun to see the chefs get so excited while describing the food.
How is the suckling pig prepared? My sister did a luau party once where they dug a pit and cooked a whole pig in it, and it was freaking delicious.
Also, what bag did you get? I really want to get a classic bag for work, but I don't think H is on board!
post a picture - i'd love to see it!
Here's the story on the pig:
?Chef Garces brines each suckling pig for 24 hours in a salt water and sugar solution, to ensure the meat is tender and flavorful. Then he confits the pig in pork fat for up to three hours. After roasting it at 250 degrees for another hour, to crisp the skin and lock in its natural juices, it is finished with sea salt and arbequina olive oil.?
Here's the bag:
It's not in pristine condition. It's hand me down from my mother-in-law. But I like that it keeps it's shape. It's hard. Canvas? And it's small. Maybe 13"s wide?
Sorry i don't have a photo of the actual thing. I left it in the car in the parking garage. Now that I think about it. I probably should have put it in the trunk. I already had a thief break into my car in that garage a couple months ago.

It's very classic! I hate the funky colored LV bags (no offense to anyone that has one!). Hopefully it's still there when you get back to your car!
P.S. If you decide you don't like it anymore, my birthday is coming up
hahahahah

Very pretty! I like it. And I'm with Laura, I prefer the traditional logo to the weird-colored ones.
And the suckling pig sounds amazing! You're going to his restaurant, I assume? H and I watch a lot of Food Network, which we refer to as food porn, so we enjoyed the Next Iron Chef show.
We are going to Amada in Philly. It is the same Chef Garces from Iron chef? maybe it's a coincidence on the name? Must research this...
Yeah, the bag is kinda cute isn't it? I might have to learn how to carry a purse. I just feel silly walking around with it when I won't spend more than $70 on a pair on jeans.
Anyone having flash backs from that jeans, handbag thread?

Yup, that's him!
No f-ing way!!!
I've been there a few times and I never knew that. The food is amazing.
Damn...I'm so hungry. I shouldn't have skipped lunch. I'll never make it.

I feel like this all the time. I got my LV last year and I wear it everyday even when I am wearing the grungy-ist clothes I own and my 15 dollar old navy jeans haha, I still rock it. I don't have the traditional one but the damier azur speedy 30.
