About this deal

His remarks were reported on June 17, 1813, in at least two British newspapers, the London Star and the London Chronicle, though the wording differed. A report also appeared in July 1813 in a British periodical, the Satirist: or, Monthly Meteor: What’s more, other meanings of “dilly” aren’t related. The adjective “dilly” has been used to mean stupid or foolish, but only since the 1870s and mostly in Australia. In American slang “dilly” has meant delightful or delicious since the early 1900s—a use that inspired the noun use (“it’s a dilly”). The source there is the first syllable of “delightful” and “delicious,” the OED says. Let’s just say that Voodoo doughnut could come across as fairly crude, if they weren’t too careful. Bangus Sisig & Garlic Fried Rice:Anna discovered some Filipino bangus in the fridge. Bangus is the National Fish of the Philippines & is commonly referred to as milkfish due to it’s milky color when cooked. We didn’t have scallions, chicharon (pork rinds) or thai chilis that many recipes called for so we improvised our sisig recipe. Usually Filipino sisig is a method of preparing meat by first marinating in a sour & spicy liquid. Usually it is made with parts of a pig (head, liver, etc) but in Americanized restaurants they use more commonly used cuts of pork &, in this case, we used milkfish.

Yup, the wheels are turning & gears are cranking while I try to figure out how to mimic these flavors at home!What I’m trying to say is that “Food is my Kryptonite”. So I’ll love my body just the way it is, keep hiding in Anna’s luggage to get around, and then be able to share details of my most delicious & most outrageous meals here with you. What I’ve learned about Anna is that she seldom steps into the kitchen knowing exactly WHAT she wants to make & never really knows exactly HOW she’s supposed to make it. She usually starts by raiding the fridge & pantry to see what supplies are available. Then, she mentally tosses around some ideas of foods she’s seen & tasted before using this newfangled technology of “Google Searches” to look up a variety of recipes that she melds together depending on what ingredients she has available.

The song was introduced in performances of Samuel Foote’s two-act farce The Mayor of Garret (1763), according to The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes (2nd ed., 1997), by Iona and Peter Opie. The song doesn’t appear in the published text of the play, but the Opies say it was immediately printed by rival London music publishers. Anna really liked the “Bacon Maple Bar doughnut”. It was covered in maple frosting & topped with two slices of bacon. She let me have a taste and it reminded me of when your breakfast bacon gets splattered with remnants of your waffle’s maple syrup. Delicious! Perhaps the most familiar of these is an anonymous 17th-century English song that begins, “Lavender’s blue, dilly dilly, lavender’s green, / When I am king, dilly dilly, you shall be queen.” (Early versions used “diddle” instead of “dilly.”) Mr. R. Thornton, in one of the debates on the East India question, wittily observed, that the invitation to the Company to open their trade reminded him of the child’s song,—’Dilly, Dilly, come and be killed.’” Also unrelated are some uses of “dilly” in nursery rhymes. We’ve found examples dating from 1606 of chants like “fa-la-la lantido dilly,” “trangidowne dilly,” “lankey down dilly,” “daffy-down dilly” (an expansion of “daffodil”), and others.

Anna & Mark make a routine trek to the Sierra Nevada mountains in the winter for snowboarding. I have yet to find a snowboard (or ski) manufacturer that makes winter sport equipment in my size, so I opt for curling up with hot toddy’s near a roaring fireplace. Another similar sounding term, “dilly dally,” is also unrelated, as far as we know. It was recorded in noun form in the 1500s and as a verb in the 1700s. But the OED says it’s probably a repeating variant (“a reduplication with vowel variation”) of the verb “dally” (circa 1300), along the lines of “shilly shally,”“zig-zag,” and other such phrases. Finally, we were in! A giant doughnut piece of artwork hung from the ceiling along with some fancy chandeliers. I was in for a treat as I looked onward towards the doughnuts as they turned in a rotating display. Some of these doughnuts were bigger than me! Anna’s company offers flexible work schedules so she has some Fridays Off every now & again. Today she stayed home on this rainy day & we fixed up a feast in our kitchen. Thankfully it stayed relatively dry as we queued up in the line. Though the line took a while, we had quite an array of the characters wandering past us, which kept us entertained.

We had so much to eat that all of us ended up passing outwhile watching the Seahawks massacre the 49ers in football. Overall, a great Thanksgiving! I do miss Anna’s Mom’s Filipino dishes, though. So, I’ll just have to load up for the upcoming Christmas holidays. Even as we got out of the car, Anna said, “Hmm… doesn’t seem like a very… unique… beach.” We had just found street parking next to the entrance to a parking lot limited to Beach Camping Only. When we wandered down, there weren’t many people around except for a few surfers trying to catch some waves.

Usually, the day consists of eating breakfast in pajamas while watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade at Anna’s parent’s house. Then, it’s First Dinner with Anna’s Dad’s Ukrainian & Polish side of the family. On that side, turkey & stuffing might be complimented with liver dumpling soup, sauerkraut pierogis, potato dumplings, etc. But don’t forget to fill in the remaining empty space in your belly with some coffee & kolatchkis. Mark’s prior experience also included saving a stranger’s box of doughnuts on an airplane flight. The story goes that as he was deplaning the aircraft, a fellow passenger pulled out their bag from the overhead bin & dislodged the magical pink doughnut box from its prior resting place. Using his ninja-esque reflexes, Mark reached out & saved the box from crashing to its doom just 6 inches from the airplane’s floor. The airplane burst into cheers at his bravery. However, even with his heroic tactics, he was not rewarded with his first taste of these delectable treasures. A nursery-rhyme version of the song was first published in 1797 in Samuel Arnold’s Juvenile Amusements, according to the Opies, and subsequently appeared in several 19th-century collections of children’s poetry (the wording often varied). Our prior Voodoo Doughnut experience involved beer instead. Rogue Ales produces three different Voodoo Doughnut beers and we had tried the “Chocolate, Peanut Butter & Banana Ale” in the past. In the end we opted for a our choice of a dozen doughnuts, including the “Dirty snowballs doughnut”, the “Triple chocolate pentration doughnut” and the “Voodoo Doll doughnut” filled with rasberry jelly & stabbed with a pretzel stake.
