Didn't realize until last night that this goofy little food blog turns three today. On behalf of myself and all the wonderful and good-looking people who have cycled in and out of the Meal Ticket orbit these past few years, THANK YOU for putting up with/reading all our nonsense and making this very fun venture possible. You are the absolute best. Though this has always been the case, I feel it's a good time to remind everyone that I welcome and encourage thoughts, feedback, criticisms and drunken missives all day every day. You know where to find me. Thanks again for reading and cheers!

Just an FYI that posting will be on the lighter side leading into the Labor Day weekend — taking a day or two to digest. We'll be right over here if you need us.
