Nibbles of Tidbits, a Food Blog

Observing Martin Luther King Day from coast to coast — I personally respect his tremendous patience.  And in relation to food, MLK makes us think of Milk, as it’s just missing a letter, and Milk Chocolate, a tie in to M&M’s World in New York’s Times Square, where Kids in the Kitchen Chef’s Lexi and Bailee are currently visiting.  They loved all the colors.

They say it’s freezing in New York right now, but we’re observing the holiday in Newport Beach where it’s 74° today — I love New York, but it’s hard to beat Southern California weather.

I also think about MLK by U2 on The Unforgettable Fire, one of the best albums of all time.

Last year the Carne Asada was from Gems Market in Yorba Linda and this year it’s from Costco.  Both were good – We’ve got no complaints about anything.  It was a beautiful day in America.

We had Hot Dogs, made Tacos, ate Salads, Fresh Cherries, Edamame, Chips, Salsa, Watermelon, Homegrown Tomatoes, Basil and more.

And check out these shoes (directly above right), they’ve got bottle openers built in to the bottom of them.  Too funny — I had not seen that before.  They came in handy on this thirsty day.
