I used to tell people I was allergic to curry, which of course is ridiculous, like telling people you're allergic to "salad dressing." But every time I admitted that I actually just hated it, people would insist that I just hadn't had the right curry and make me eat some.

And then my tastes changed in college and I started liking it after all.

I had an eat-in date with a chap I met when working as a barmaid.
He was cute, in a hobbit kinda way. And smart and funny, which was why I gave it a go. No spark though.

Anyway.

He lived in a freezy house. I've always been a hot-body (in many ways, yuck-yuck) but this man had poor glazing and inadequate bedding.
AND (getting to the point here) on our first date he made me a lovely mushroom dish. Being a veggie.

No, sorry.
Just too many things not happening here.
In hindsight he was pretty cool. But I was cooller and fitter at that age and thought I had the time to choose.

He shoulda made me tabbouleh. And told me how to pronounce it.
My parting gift to him was a heavy tog duvet.
Skinny little hobbit chap with big eyes, he needed it. Hope his next lady enjoyed it - said with no prejudice.

I just had a really nice, simple tea.

Gnocchi (bought ready made but fresh from the cooler, not the dried stuff) - gotta love food that cooks in 2 minutes :P

To stir through: chopped forestierre mushrooms cooked slowly in butter, then added some chopped garlic, steamed baby spinach leaves, feta cheese, a little milk and some wholegrain mustard.

Served with a couple of chunks of cheese and onion sharing bread.


Delish!

I've said it before, Sundae, and it bears repeating; all mushrooms are edible. Some of them, only once.

Shit, I came here to say I was having Vermont Cheddar, Gulden's mustard (it's golden on your tongue) and Snyder's of Hanover pretzels for dinner. Going vegetarian because I can't be arsed to slice some of the sopressata I have.

That is, of course the side dish to tonight's main course: My Robbing The Cradle Outmeal Stoat! On bottle two and I am feeling just a little out of control. Must check the ABV of that batch...

Good people, let me tell you, it is a party in your mouth and everyone is invited! Wholly and entirely mackerel. Tasty? Why, now that you ask, tasty doesn't begin, doesn't begin to finish my train of thought. It's goddamn delicious.

Are you down with GDD? yeah, you know me.

Shit. I'm out of Outmeal Stoat. Shall I wait fifteen minutes to see which direction inebriation is headed or should I damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead?

Also, listening to Fucking Kenny Burrell. Life is fucking suite. soooeeeet. Sue? Eat! La Dolce Vita.

Fucking Kenny Burrell.
Damn.

This just in from my brewing software: That batch was 6.6%ABV.

I think we are about to achieve escape velocity.

LAIKA! SALLY RIDE! LOUIS ARMSTRONG!

(uhh, dude, that's Neil Armstrong, Neil. Not Louis.)

Can I put shit up into the cloud? How do I do that? I'd love for you all to hear this fucking amazing Kenny Burrell. It's right inside your ear. You can totally go places with this music.
I'm going to look into the cloud.

Maybe it was just the batteries were dying. This is much more better.

fuck soundcloud and the horse they rode in on.

That was a major buzzkill. I signed up with my FB account and then when I wanted to delete my soundcloud account they told me my password was incorrect. I never gave them a fucking password.

Asshats.
