Aussie burgers tend not to have the pickle thing... That was a relatively new phenomenon that became known to we antipodeans when Macca's blew in to the joint decades ago... ("Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, on a sesame seed bun"!!!!! I can still recite it, by rote, decades later, and I don't even eat that stuff!) No mustard, either, as a rule, nor mayo.... Of course, people may and do eat all those things, I'm sure, but it simply isn't a regular Aussie hamburger like you'd get in a 'Greasy Grills' type establishment (Ie old-fashioned milk bar... 'drug-store'??????). .... Hmm... Faulty Aussie logic, of course, being that our 'ham'burgers, like yours are all-beef, !!

I think it's been a long time since Mickey D's had anything even resembling actual meat on their menu. Still I find that every few months I am driven by the urge for a Big Mac. It's the junk food junkie in me, and I indulge it. But usually I make burgers at home.

I'd love to try an Aussie burger.

I'm really excited for the train this time around.

I think the clock is slow...

LOL...just how much coffee have you had?

[morticia monroe]

When I get to work this morning, Lily will have made gumbos which are good, but of no interest to me. I will head straight for Brenda, who will be just in the act of brushing melted butter onto the dinner rolls we serve fresh every day. I'll grab one, tear a hole in it, and stuff it with the green olive mix we put on the muffalettas. I limit myself to one, but I'm a real sucker for homemade bread.

Too much without anything else on my stomach.

Besides, that was my David Lee Roth impersonation.



*Pop quiz, kiddies!!*
Does anyone remember which Van Halen song that line is from?

Who is David Lee Roth???

I'm celebrating with the doughnuts because the doc told me yesterday that my blood tests and mammogram show me healthy as a horse. He DID tell me that testing for menopause level (who knew they could do that?) proves me knee deep right square in the big bad middle of it. I think finding out I'm just a crone cost me about $400.

He was the original lead singer for Van Halen. You might not know him, but surely you know Van Halen's music?
