Anyone who follows my Twitter stream has figured out that I watch The Rachel Maddow Show most weeknights. Like most fangirls, I also contribute to the online conversation about the show, using the #maddow hashtag.
A couple of weeks ago (
July 1, actually), as her "Best New Thing In The World", she invited some folks from Iowa who own a restaurant to make their specialty on her show: something called the Magic Mountain. (There's some connection to an Obama town hall and ... the details are in the podcast).
A Magic Mountain is a piece of Texas Toast with meat, french fries, cheese sauce, and onions (to look like snow on top). If you put chili on top, it's called a Volcano.
OMG. I craved one for like, three days before I could get to the store and get the stuff to make one. If I had picked up a can of vegetarian chili, this could even be a Project Veg recipe. But its not.

| I used the Texas Toast I had in the fridge, which has cheese on it. I mean, you can never have too much cheese, right? |

| Fries. I didn't put the meat, b/c at this point I thought I was doing this veg. |

| Melted cheese (I didn't have sauce, sorry). |

| Onions, to look like "snow" on the mountain. |

| Okay, it looks really awful. But it was SOOO good. |

Just wanted to ask you about the pictures you put, more so about the texts that go with the picrtures [caption] - HOW do you do it??
I've added a new page (which I'm going to delete as I've opened a new blog, and on the new page I can add caption notes, but not in my main blog (both old and new ones).
Thanks (you can e-mail me at - greentamsha AT yahoo DOT co DOT uk)
