I believe you may have been tagged for 5 bad habits by one namesake.

I like it. Nice meme.

Oh, I am SO with you on the duck. It is the most delicious food. (Except the CPK peking duck pizza, which ew.) It's always tricky for me, though, because while it is one of my favorite things to eat, it's also the only meat that comes from an animal I find cute. My compromise is that I try to save it for special occasions.

Now you have me dreaming of the duck tcos at Fonda again.

I'm with you on the duck in any form. Although, one of my favorites is roasted with a pomegranate molasses sauce at The Slocum House here in the greater Sac-town area.

Dan-- Yes, the tag from the Glorious one is my next one.

Gwen & Dagny-- I am so glad you share the duck thing with me. Gwen, I am ignoring your reference to cute because I try not to think about anything meat I eat or I will have to go vegetarian and all my joy in life would be gone. Chickens are pretty cute, too.

Vanessa, what is The Slocum House? I haven't been to Sacramento in a long time, maybe I will have to take a weekend trip. Is it in Old Sac?

Mmmmmm I love duck. Quack.

I totally save all sorts of sentimental stuff. That's why my apartment is so messy, I don't know where to put it all. (Scrapbooks would be the logical answer, but those take time to make.)

Yay for Paris!

The Slocum House is in Old Fair Oaks Village - where all the chickens run wild.
I just checked out their online menu (I haven't been there in over a year) and it looks like they've removed the roasted duck, but they do have an amazing Sunday brunch that you must go to if you are ever in Sacramento.

Vanessa, thank you for the restaurant tip. I will have to talk my dad and stepmom into taking me there the next time I'm in Sacto.

I'm pleased to report that I share a deep connection with at least one item on each of your lists. I'm not sure if deep is the right word for Flick Stop, but you know what I mean. Good to know we're on the same page (or at least in the same book). It's reassuring to know that someone else's hear flutters when they hear the Killers or General Public or the Cocteau Twins. (Okay, probably lots of peoples' hearts flutter, and I don't even know for sure that yours does, but don't tell me if it doesn't. Because we'll always have Flick Stop and Rio and Before Sunset and SF and duck and hamachi.)

OMG! General Public! That was the first concert I went to without my mom. Del Mar Fairgrounds. And Otis Day & the Nights opened. So cool.

This was before the TomKat thing.
