HOT LUNCH IS NO LONGER TAKING RESERVATIONS! ALL SPOTS HAVE BEEN FILLED FOR THE FRIDAY, JUNE 11TH DINNER! THANK YOU!! XOXOX

EATING DINNER IS THE MOST FUN.

2010-06-01T18:08:00.000-07:00

Hello!!
Maybe you've been to a Hot Lunch in the past, maybe not. Either way I hope you come to the next one we are having on JUNE 11th. We are doing things a little bit different here on the renegade restaurant front and we are now taking reservations- up to 60 to be exact. In the past it's always been us guessing how many people will show up. Sometimes I run out of food, sometimes not everyone gets to eat! This time around we are planning on serving 60 folks- that is, 60 people who have signed up and want to come eat a serious vegan FEAST, listen to some records, maybe have some whiskey and pie, too.
If you are interested in coming and eating at the next HOT LUNCH, please shoot me an email or leave a comment here.

Want to read more about what HOT LUNCH is?
HOT LUNCH is an experiment in community dining- one that is not super exclusive, one that carries the DIY ethos in everything it does. We bake our own bread. We brew our own beers. This time we are making you pickles!
HOT LUNCH is a place to see your friends and make some new ones. Its a tribute to food and good music and getting shit done.
We love it!
Please reserve your spot ASAP as they are bound to fill up (last month we served 90 people!)
If you cannot make it to this serving, or maybe we filled up too quickly, I would be more than happy to put you on the TOP of the list for the next serving.
Thanks!
LOVE, Tiffany

Polaroid "Fade to Black" type film for SX-70.
This image will continue to transform from barely visible, to entirely black in the next 24 hours. After it is completely darkened I will put it in the sun and the image will be bleached back, resulting in a sepia soaked photograph. This image is currently turning very mustard, with hints of orange and brown.

I like the idea of a General Store.

Yeah, we wear our helmets. It sounds silly to say, but I think the recklessness of NOT wearing a helmet is only appealing 10% of the time, and never when I'm crossing the bridge. Also, saying that makes me feel like a why the hell am I growing up so fast? I guess "Live YOUNG die YOUNG" isn't on my menu these days. Actually, scratch that. Its a sidedish but I've decided a smooshed brain isnt the way I wanna roll.
I've been really obsessing over the Golden Gate Bridge lately and want to learn everything about it. The whole thing from the space, the color, to the men and women who work on it have me wanting to cross it daily. But I don't. Miles sometimes looks like a cheese ball in photos, he's still pretty cute though.

PJ is my best friend. I mean, I have a few best friends you know, like we all do. But PJ man, he kind of brings me back to a feeling of owning the world, taking whats mine, being kind and productive and educating myself. It's a real good feeling- plus we have the same color hair and may or may not be long lost brother/sister bears.

BOOKS

2010-01-12T10:46:00.001-08:00

In August 2009 I decided to keep track of all the books I would read until the end of the year. This sentiment sort of worked but then I lost the notebook I was using, I got lazy about writing down titles, and though I read alot, it wasnt all recorded. Anyways, here is the list of the books I did track, you know, just in case you want to read a book and dont know where to start!

1. East of Eden. John Steinbeck
2. Oil. Upton Sinclair
3. The Laughing Man. JD Salinger
4. The Heart of the Sea. Nathaniel Philbrick
5. Of Love and other Demons. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
6. Travels with Charlie. John Steinbeck
7. Armageddon in Retrospect. Kurt Vonnegut
8. Cannery Row. John Steinbeck
9. All the Pretty Horses. Cormac McCarthy
10. Devil in the White City. Eric Larson
++++ Countless zines, most notably discovered SCAM this year.

This became Challah. It was my first attempt and Drew, fresh from the Czech Republic (kind of) taught me some tips so my next two loaves were pretty and golden with a firm and glossy eggwash. It was good bread. It was not vegan!

2009-12-20T21:17:00.001-08:00

Vegan Caramel Apple Spice Cupcakes from Veganomicon.
I am just realizing that the 'caramel' color is super off. They were tasty though, like litte morsels of apple cake and sticky caramel with crunchy macadamias. I like to bake.

bread

2009-11-17T14:11:00.001-08:00

White Sandwich Bread, Straight Up! I made bread. It took about 20 hours. I made a biga, which is a sort of starter for breads the night before and let it rise for about 15 hours. I then incorporated the gooey biga into the rest of the flour and water, with a little more yeast and salt. The bread had to rise two more times and bake for about 45 minutes. Its very dense with a moist crumb and a delicious, firm, golden crust. This is my 3rd attempt at bread baking and I'm getting really excited to rely on myself for all my bread needs.
