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. Yup, the wheels are turning & gears are cranking while I try to figure out how to mimic these flavors at home! 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.

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’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. 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! 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. 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!

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. 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.

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.

I’ve tried all the fad diets to lose some weight around my yellow belly and orange beak. “No carb” diets. “No sugar” diets. “No meat” diets. “No taste” diets. I can’t say I’ve jumped on the “No gluten” diet because most people partaking in that particular one can’t even tell me what a gluten is. Anyway, the one thing I can summarize about all the diets I have tried, though, is they all end up making me feel like I’m on the “I’m always hungry” diet. 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). For example, a member of Parliament, Robert Thornton, used the catch-phrase in the House of Commons on June 16, 1813, in arguing against an invitation to the East India Company to open its ports to wider trade. He likened the resolution to “the line in Mrs. Bond’s song—’Dilly Dilly Wagtail, come to be killed.’”

On their most recent trip to Lake Tahoe, their travel destination was the SnowGlobe Music Festival with the slopes as a bit of a side thought. So, I tagged along for our first time at this particular music festival. I love snow & I love music, so it just made sense to put them together. Unfortunately, I forgot just how long of a drive it was to get to Tahoe. But, I perched on the dashboard for a first-row view as the snow-capped Sierras came around the bend. 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: Overall, SnowGlobe was a great music festival, but I’m not sure we’d do it again. Being its fourth year, you’d think more of the kinks were lined out. Unfortunately, the entrance line was at a standstill on two of the three days. Also, you’d think there would be a more organized with their shuttle lines instead of mass mobs standing in the streets praying that a shuttle bus would stop. Lastly, due to high winds, one of the After Parties on the Tahoe Dixie boat was relocated at the last minute due to 10-foot lake waves. The song’s oft-repeated refrain is “Dilly, dilly, dilly, dilly, come to be killed, / For you must be stuffed and my customers filled!”Let’s just say that Voodoo doughnut could come across as fairly crude, if they weren’t too careful.
