My favorite food

1). Wild Mushrooms on toast
While visiting my California family, in a rustic cabin in a Redwood forest, harvested from the mossy ground moments before, sauteed in an excess of butter and served on toast points. The ocean is close by but we are surrounded, enclosed, and encapsulated by a dense wet green mass of dripping wet with occasional dark tree trunks the size of a small house.
2). Yellow fin tuna salsa with fresh tortilla chips
An miraculous leftover creation made by the chef at the restaurant where I work, served once to the kitchen staff three years ago and never again. Sushi grade tuna, chopped with fresh cilantro, lime, cumin and salt, served on tortilla slices fresh from the fryolator. Must be eaten standing up and quickly as possible in order to get as much as you can before everyone else eats it all.
3). My wedding cake
Chocolate butter cream, lemon cake, lemon curd, and fresh dahlias. What can I say. It was so beautiful and so good and I was so happy.
4). Bob's roast chicken
The one thing he really likes to cook. Olive oil massaged into the skin before roasting. We have it once a week in the fall and winter. There is no dinner conversation. Perhaps the crack and pop of wood in the wood stove and the rustle of newspaper pages turning are the perfect accompaniment.
5). Indian Pig Out with Dad
A very dangerous mission involving eating as many and as much Indian dishes you can in one sitting, including various breads, speciality drinks, chutneys and sauces. Complemented by conversations involving your future, or lack there of, with the occasional splash of irony involving how much weight you've gained and the need to take it off.
6). Macaroni and Cheese
My version is the ultimate comfort food, warning: not for the faint of heart. People have been known to gain 3-7 lbs after one sitting. For cold and snowy nights in front of the fire when the sun goes down at 4:00 and you are wearing an entire wardrobe of fleece. You're really not thinking about anything other than the warm gooey mess you are ingesting.
