What's The Better Name: Muffy or Bogel?

I have been on a cinnamon crunch bagel/hazelnut cream cheese kick for awhile now...it's my new favorite brunch treat on weekends...I have a weird feeling it's not all that healthy? ;)

Might have to try that bogel version! tho i dont know if i'll be able to say that name with a straight face, you're right...

What's your favorite food when drunk?

MCDONALDS -- I am such a bad drunk eater, I eat more than any person ever should. My favorite is cheeseburger/fries combo.

In college we were huge on ordering Chinese food-- crab rangoon in particular. Also loved fried chicken fingers in the dining hall dunked in honey.

After college, lived in the North End in Boston and frequented Bova's 24 hour bakery-- so it was huge arancini and mini calzones. They were disgusting.

Also in college, veggie corn dogs. Sounds disgusting, was amazing.

Cook the Book: 'Gourmet Today'

Mine was a Betty Crocker one with cartoons and those horrible photos of food that makes everything look like something out of a jello mold. But I LOVED it and half the pages have been torn out but it just makes me so happy whenever I come across it. Perhaps I'll make some pigs in a blanket this weekend?

Do you like cooking to music?

If Wheel of Fortune isn't on in the background, I will usually listen to music.... my friend even has a playlist on her ipod called "Salmon" -- more here: http://dishthisboston.blogspot.com/2009/04/cooking-music-salmon-playlist.html

Absolute Bagel.

We don't need no stinkin' brunches.

Not exactly the same but El Malecon on Amsterdam and 98 or so is comparable. Great lunch specials, great roasted chicken, and cafe con leche.

La Rosita replacement needed!

@klg: I've never been to the taqueria for breakfast -- are those dishes as delicious as their other food? And how's the cafe con leche (one of my favorite things about La Rosita)?

Also, when I passed by the other day it seemed like they were still serving in the space next door to the main restaurant, but I didn't look too closely.

Egg in Toast: What Do You Call It?

A Hole in One!!!! My grandfather used to make these for me when I was a very little girl, visiting him in Lancaster, PA. He was not a golfer. He was first-generation American of Swedish descent, who had grown up in Salt Lake City, Utah.

This must be the dumbest question I've ever seen on this site. Get serious.

Actually ANYTHING with a Side of Hot Man is good... drunk or sober!

What's your favorite food when drunk?

Whataburger taquitos: bacon, egg & cheese (with picante) or a Philly cheesesteak. Depends on whether I am in Texas or NJ/PA at the time of said drunk.

I don't get drunk anymore, but after a few drinks, if there is cold fried chicken left over, it's gone! Dave

I don't know that it's actually considered food, but I can kill some Taco Bells after having a few "pops". Grease is GOOD!!! LOL!!!

When I was in Korea, the food trucks with the spiciest dukbukki were the best...the raging heartburn the next day, not so much

What's your favorite food when drunk?

Cheese fries with feta dip from The Grill in Athens, GA (open 24 hours, and they don't mind my drunken revelry!) or animal style from an In N Out. Although I'm pretty sure everybody likes about anything from LaFonda dogs by the UGA library, in terms of nasty-ass street food. I'm nursing a gin and tonic right now, and getting absolutely ravenous reading your posts!

Has no one heard of a garbage plate? i think it originated around rochester, ny.. best drunk food. ever... basically its a giant plate with either two hamburger patties or chicken fingers, french fries or homefries, mac salad, bread and covered in chopped onions.. you have to drench it in ketchup, mustard, salt and pepper.. its amazing...

Definitely muffy. I really don't get the bogel.

And isn't the muffy concept from Seinfeld anyways?

What's The Better Name: Muffy or Bogel?

"Muffy" sounds like should be served have a string of pearls and a croquet mallet.

Though, "muffin top" doesn't sit well either. It would only serve as a reminder of what will happen to your waistline if you eat too many "muffin tops"...

@piccola - so true.

I love inauthentic bagel flavours, but let's be honest: the cinnamon crunch bagel is actually a donut.

What's The Better Name: Muffy or Bogel?

I think I know a girl named "Muffy Bogle". She prefers to be called Catherine now. And one must always use the lockjaw when conversing with Muffies.
Do these come in pink and green bags with argyle ribbons?

@ hungrycristel: Mine too! Her "real" name is Muffin, but of course she's "Muffy" much of the time.

@dozertx-I was thinking the exact same thing -except your forgot to add the droll "dahling", while asking for the "Muffy"...:o)
