Had to look up what "emmental" is and your entire day (as per usual) makes me think this:





Everything so good and that "Crazy Awesome Salad"...Just YUM, period.

I'm just like that when I browse over your meals as well! You have the most delicious set ups. By the way, I completely agree about beets. They're amazing. I would probably have them everyday if I could. I've never had Ethiopian food but you're making it sound so good. Also, yay for free ice cream!

I'm new to Ethiopian food as well and it looks so very plain/simple, but is so very delicious and filling and different, I love it. Also, I meant to comment on your turtle ice cream treat. I LOVE turtles so much, when I was a child, a package of turtles was 15 cents (note this is the era of penny candy and back then 15 cents was SUPER EXPENSIVE for a kid's candy) and you only got two in a package and my friends thought I was so ridiculous and "snobby" to spend ALL of that money (15 whole cents) on two wee little pieces of candy. Turtles have always been one of my favorite all time candies and to read about the ice cream treat you had, made me mentally "drool".

YUM! I love Ethiopian food, but the nearest place is 2 hours from me...may have to make a little road trip quite soon!

Also, love the free ice cream story. My husband and I were on vacation awhile ago and the girl at A&W was having a horrible time w/ another customer (in the drive thru) and she gave us free strawberry sundaes.

Seltz...it's SO worth a fun 2 hour drive to get some, it's so good. Again, such simple food but utterly yummy!
