Lot of you might have been wondering where the SpatulaGoddess had run off to.

Well, fret not.&#160 The Royal Hottie had her internet connection go toes up Sunday.&#160 Lucklily, her noble hubby Dave seems to have it fixed.

In addition, the family’s been entertaining visitors:&#160 LC Humble Devildog has spent a couple days in Madison South (Austin).&#160 Talked to them both this evening on their way home from Chez TwoDragons.

So, relax.&#160 The Parenthetical Statements&#153 will be cranking out again in no time.

It’s no great secret that I…ahhhhh…still weigh more than I ought. (cough)

But I am NOT&#160 taking this dare.

The burger war is growing. Literally. Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub, which lost its crown as the home of the world’s biggest burger earlier this year, is now offering a new burger that weighs a whopping 15 pounds.

Dubbed the Beer Barrel Belly Buster, the burger comes with 10.5 pounds of ground beef, 25 slices of cheese, a head of lettuce, three tomatoes, two onions, a cup-and-a-half each of mayonnaise, relish, ketchup, mustard and banana peppers – and a bun.

It costs $30.

And here I thought Fuddrucker’s burger was huge.

Day-um.&#160 Just, day-um.

“It can feed a family of 10,” said Denny Liegey Sr., the restaurant’s owner.

Or me and my brother, whomever can finish first. (grin)

Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub had offered a 6-pound burger – with 5 pounds of toppings.

In February, a 100-pound female college student became the first to eat the burger within the three-hour time limit. Kate Stelnick, of Princeton, N.J., was awarded a special certificate, a T-shirt and other prizes and Leigey picked up the $23.95 tab for the burger.

Y’know, I think I’d’ve paid real money to see that.

One month later, the Clinton Station Diner in Clinton, N.J., introduced a 12.5-pound burger dubbed Zeus.

So Liegey responded, and the Belly Buster was born.

Over the weekend, four men took the challenge, but couldn’t get through the entire burger. They opted for doggie bags, instead.

“It’s a little too much for me to handle,” said Steve Hepburn, of Clearfield. “It’s like trying to eat half a cow.”

Nope, no way am I trying that, no way, no how, uh-uh, nope, fuggeddaboudit…
