Potstickers and Crabapples...

I'm obsessed with Potstickers.  Not just any old potsticker, but the chicken and spinach potstickers from The Avenue Grill.  Last weekend, we went to the symphony on Saturday night, then for dinner after.  I got my usual Thai Peanut Lo Mein for dinner, but for starters we ordered vegetable egg rolls and potstickers.  At the time, they were delicious, but I didn't give them much more thought.  Yesterday around 3:30 in the afternoon, I was running on the treadmill, when the craving  hit.  I needed more of those potstickers.  Knowing we were headed to the symphony again last night, I knew those potstickers could be mine once again.  While the symphony was beautiful, they couldn't play that music fast enough!  But finally, after thinking about those yummy things for 7 hours, they were like tasting little bits of heaven.  My mission now, which I have chosen to accept, is to try to reproduce a reasonable interpretation of the potstickers at home.  If anyone has a great recipe for potstickers they would like to share, just email it to me.    In other food related experiments this week, on Friday night I made a big pot of Red Bean and Rice soup, completely vegetarian, spicy and delicious for the cool evening.  Dan made Crap Apple Jelly yesterday, which I was hesitant about, but actually it doesn't taste too bad. My grandma had a crabapple tree in her backyard and I don't remember her ever doing anything with them, in fact as a kid, I don't think I even knew you could eat them.  The jelly has the slightest hint of bitterness, maybe why its called a "crab" apple?, but I think maybe with a little peanut butter on toast, it just might be the perfect combination.    Anyway, I'm off to Nebraska this week, where I'm sure there will be no great culinary find, but a guy can hope...
