Lunch in NYC

I had the pleasure of having lunch with tofunutloaf, creator of the 'bots and the monsters, and her husband, Bob, in NYC. She had the stars of her movies with her and would you believe it, I forgot to ask for autographs.

Tuesday Tinker - tofunutloaf

Introducing one of tofunutloaf's robots.



One might think that, with a clock on her chest, Leota would be punctual to all events. This has not proven to be the case, however....  for more details of Leota's life and problems check out tofunutloaf's store.

Thursdays Recipe Corner

Today's tasty toast recipe is brought to you by the appropriately named Tofunutloaf on etsy.com. If you are a fan of breadyness, she has a mascot for you. Meet the Burger Bott who is cute enough to eat.
And now for the eats.


Yeah, I'm writing up how to make toast. But, this was really awesome toast, and really awesome toast is not an everyday occurrence. You will not find this toast at any fancy brunch, or on a high-class continental breakfast buffet, or in any fancy breakfast spot anywhere. It can only be had by searching out (or making) the best local food around. To have this incredible toast experience, you will need:

1 thick slice of amazing bread
really good fresh goat cheese
The best honey you can muster

Toast bread. Spread with the desired amount of goat cheese, and drizzle with honey. Eat.

If you happen to be near the Greater Champaign-Urbana Metropolitan Area, and would like to experience this toast as I did, you will need:

1 thick slice Mirabelle honey walnut bread
Prairie Fruits Herbs de Provence chevre
honey from Sasse's Apiary

Toast bread. Spread with the desired amount of goat cheese, and drizzle with honey. Eat. Toast more bread, spread with goat cheese, and drizzle with honey. Eat.

The Recipe Corner - Not-Too-Godawful-Sweet Mango Chutney



3 ripe mangoes
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
chopped garlic
chopped ginger
cloves, cayenne, and cinnamon to taste
a bit of brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt

Peel and cut mangoes into small chunks. Put all ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for maybe 40 minutes, or until the vinegar and sugar have turned into a bubbling mass of caramelized goodness and the mangoes are nice and soft. Serve it hot or cold. Serves 3-4 if you're lucky.



Recipe compliments of tofunutloaf.

Tuesday Tinker - tofunutloaf

Tofu Nutloaf lives in the Republic of Urbana and specializes in creating robots with unusual views of the universe and reality. She also makes block prints and cards featuring  Cephalopoda such as squid and octopi.

The following quote is from her profile on her Etsy store. "Tofu Nutloaf comes up with the best, most interesting theories in the known universe. Whether they ultimately turn out to be a reflection of reality is of no concern."

Tofu is also fond of strange vegetables and is apt to mention them at random intervals on facebook.
