Monday, February 15

Closed today to celebrate the POTUS (how do you make that plural)! George Washington philosophically noted, “It is impossible to reason without arriving at a Supreme Bean.” Apparently, he loved his beans like he loved hoe cakes (pancakes made with cornbread), mashed sweet potatoes, steak and kidney pie, and fish muddle (whatever that is). Of course, Martha’s Whiskey Cake found its way to the table often, as did port and dark ales. We’ll have a look at more presidential favorite foods this week!

Fried pork chops, mama’s rice, and roasted broccoli.

Famous Food Quotes

Sometime in 1990 President George H. W. Bush banned broccoli from Air Force One saying, “I do not like broccoli. And I haven’t liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I’m President of the United States and I’m not going to eat any more broccoli.” Well, he probably won’t eat the fried pork chops this week as the veggie side is that rascal broccoli.
