Episode 26: Cash drinks water, Spa misses yogurt, Cruz forgets yogurt & Mr X Chops his Meatballs

Its my turn, a month flew by and I kept it original by bringing some 
1.  Meatballs. Actually they are Koftay or as Spa called them Koftay Kababs.  Pretty much Beef meatballs but these loaded with jalapeño peppers and onions drenched in yummy oil/onion/tomato/garlic/ginger/red chili pepper sauce.
2.  Basmati rice but of course forgot the yogurt.  Poor Spa and Cash paid the price although I was happy to see Cash taking "seconds" and Spa taking "fourths".

3.  For desserts, I brought Halwa, particularly Suji Halwa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halva).  Cruz provided two versions, one hard and one less cooked softer more traditional version.  These were filled with honey, dates, raisans and sprinkled with all crushed almonds and Pistachios. 

 

Editor's Note:  I would point out that all cooking and prep work was done by Cruz's mother and since I will post this blog on her Facebook page, I would add that she did a fantastic job.

Here is a picture of SLAW table which has hosted 26 office lunch sharing adventures.  (I actually think this will make a nice print or wall poster for our offices)

SLAW TOPIC OF THE DAY: In the news and blogs, its all about the boring Oscars with James Franco high on drugs, Middle East uprisings and Charlie Sheen these days and what did we pick to talk about during SLAW... 

yup... good ol' Charlie.

This was a short SLAW.  We started 12:05pm and were done with Charlie Sheen, our seconds and fourths by 12:38pm. SLAW TIP: Sharing lunch at work saves time.
Its Mr X's turn next week and he has been instructed to bring something that doesn't smell strong, no oily or dark sauce base, or onion, garlic. BUT it better taste good.  
Good Luck Mr X. Good Luck!
