It was amazing food - thanks! I'm just going to have to move south of the river. I celebrated my 47th birthday by having dinner at Buenos Aries based on your recommendation.

Every so often I start talking about the Yukon and people look at me like I'm insane when I extol the pleasures of watching the winter sunrise at 10:30 and having one's eyelashes freeze shut. I was hoping you knew the place. Oh, I’m not pissed off, Violet Socks, I’m homesick.

And I do know that the Yukon has towns! But lots of it is what we 'murikans call wildnerness, or at least sparsely populated forest and tundra (or it was when I was learning geography, and according to my 1996 atlas, still is). I certainly don't mean any disrespect to the Yukon or the people who live there. No, I’m not in the Yukon, nor have I ever visited. And I do know that the Yukon has towns!

I ask because my home town is Whitehorse, which has some damned fine restaurants including a pretty good Mexican place although it's more of a deli than a sit-down-and-stay sort of place.

You know how we sort of subliminally register clues about where people are? Somehow I had gotten the idea that you're in the Northwest and in a remote environment. Violet I take your comment to mean do I live at the end of the world.

Dulce de leche is a caramel sauce made by putting a can of condensed milk in a pot of water and boiling it for two hours, hoping it doesn't explode and spray molten sugar blobs all over your kitchen. Stuffed in a delicate crepe, topped with whipped cream, another drizzle of dulce de leche on top, it is heaven, especially paired with the coffee you raptured about. You can also buy already-made-in-a-jar-no-danger-of-kitchen-mishaps DDL, which can crassly be eaten with a spoon, like Marshmallow Fluff. I'm moving to Austin within six months and I will make a beeline to that place, 'cause I love Argentinian food.. You must try the dulce de leche crepes next time, if they serve them.
