THE DEBACLE OF THE FOODSTUFFS

Well, you've read the notes, the notes wanted to vomit on the ground from the foodstuffs, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're happy whenever anyone has a debacle of the foodstuffs.

Bruce, sounds like you need to learn how to cook simple, healthy food to keep from future debacles.

Jane, wishing you a restful, refreshing sleep with beautiful dreams.

Yesterday was a day.  I eventually got up and after my morning ablutions and the feedings of my cat and myself, I went to music rehearsal for A Christmas Story.  We sang through the songs that we had learned last week, then learned a couple of new group numbers, then we got to leave.  I then went to my parents' for our weekly family dinner (this week tilapia), then we played cards (I didn't win).

After that, I went to my friend Margo's place and hung out until we left to go to the movies.  We saw the 10 pm showing of the remake of A Star Is Born.  Both Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper were good.  It was a little long, but really well done.  I enjoyed it, but didn't love it.  This was Margo's fifth time seeing it!  I then came home and am about to go to bed.

TOD, in three categories —

1. The ones that were along the lines of BK’s experience yesterday would be buying a normally delicious deli-made chicken salad and finding bits of gristle or bone. That’s happened a couple of times, at different places, and each time it was several months before I could go back to that particular chicken salad. That same thing has happened with nationally marketed mass-produced products such as Marie Callender’s pot pies, which I find damned tasty until I draw a bad one.

2. In actually becoming ill from a meal, I still remember my first ever night of food poisoning (whether that was the actual cause, who knows) following a meal of some dish at a place in Cleveland we all loved during my college years. I have never succeeded in recalling exactly what that meal consisted of (it had something to do with barbecue, or whatever was being called that then) but it was years before I could go back to anything I thought was similar.

3. Finally, we have the situation in which you take something to be polite, thinking the thing might end up being good or at least not present a problem, and it’s all you can do to get the first bite safely down. I suspect I’ve had a few such instances, but the one that always comes to mind is the pigskin roll (is that what it’s called?) as one of the appetizers in a Thanksgiving dinner at a friend’s house. Fortunately, no one was offended when I didn’t go on with it; it turned out that they mostly made it for the father who had very specific tastes.

It’s likely that the food in No. 2 wasn’t bad at all, and I simply stuffed myself or was getting a bug anyway. Fortunately, once I eventually returned to that kind of meal, it turned out to be one of the types of things I’ve loved most ever since.

EDIT:  I need to research that. The only possibility for hopefully identifying and recalling that dish is finding a menu from those years. Must make this a project.

Which is exactly what happened with my first ever Martini. One sip, and the rest was discreetly poured into the nearest potted plant. Years later, when properly introduced to them in the right context, they were the perfect thing.

Well, that’s about enough out of me. Plus, I need to get to some ugly bill paying, some laundry, some food shopping, and then maybe some housecleaning.

Monday!

I am horrified by MR BK's experience with his foodstuffs.....

I mostly remember something to do with Wasabi.....which I was not familiar with, but soon decided I didn't like.

And then there was the Reuben sandwich which I had heard of....so I tried one.....sauerkraut???!!!  On your sandwich....NO THANK YOU.

I bought a turkey wrap.....that seemed to be made of Buddig turkey....a couple of days before I bought it....

I don't think I could see ASIB five times, although I did like it and would like to see it again.....and I bought the soundtrack.
