I will now make a case for the unfairly vilified full Tofurkey feast: product of Oregon (of course), offered in the freezer section of your local vegetarian foodstore around this time of year. I love it for its visual element: tasty globe of stuffed fake meat that comes wrapped in a plastic bag. It is like eating pretend food; like we are playing grown-ups, and it is our holiday-meal fantasy. The mock wishbone looks like two snausages pressed together with an iron. But it tastes like jerky.
If you’re a coffee snob like me: might I recommend the Hairbender? After friends, Stumptown is the main thing I miss about Portland. (I also mourn my cheapass rent.)

“Ordering Stumptown Coffee over the Internet is fun and easy!”
Do you actually do this? Very legit.
The line at the Belmont Stumpy this morning (t-day) was all the way back to the bathroom. But we waited patiently. For what else could we do. We must have our stumpy.
“coffee snob”? Holler at me cowgirl, I will lead you to the best new york has to offer..
