Marcela channeling Margeeka

or you could try something random.

These are a few of my favorite things.

Apparently, being an AmEx card holder has its perks.

We got to get our photos taken with some celeb chefs while at the South Beach Wine & Food Fest.

Morimoto was pretty quiet, probably because his English is limited, but Rocco was very nice and made sure to shake everyone’s hand and at least say hello even though we were being pushed through the process like we were on an assembly line.

Celebrate rotten times, c’mon!

Speaking of holidays, I love it when I see that the expiration date on my food falls on a significant day.

Currently, the milk in my fridge expires on Valentine’s day and my trusty rice cakes will be good until the last firework goes off on Fourth of July—not that they’ll last even a week the way I eat them.

chelsealeigh: thisiswhyyourefat: Pizza Hut Hersey’s Chocolate Dunkers (submitted by sophie via Pizza Hut) Yeah… Marcela’s gonna wanna get some of these… I can’t even count the number of times I’ve ranted to my friends about Pizza Hut’s—and to a lesser extent, Dominos’—relentless attempts to bastardize food. It’s almost as if the company is run by a group of 7-year-olds who have never heard the phrase “just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.” Pizza Hut, you lost me at stuffed crust, burned your bridges with the p’zone, and now you’re napalming the pilings with this chocolate abomination.

"It was a 50/50 chance that it was oatmeal"

  • Me: I may or may not have just put a small globule of lotion in my mouth thinking it was oatmeal. Wait, yeah, that totally just happened.
  • Him: Blugh. How did this happen?
  • Me: It was on my desk, and I had oatmeal earlier. So, really, it was a 50/50 chance that it was oatmeal. Not as strong/horrible as you would think.
  • Him: I don't even understand the compulsion to eat a glob of cold oatmeal off the desk.
  • Me: You just have to love me, nowhere in our vows did it say you had to understand me.

In the name of symmetry

My dinner schedule this week:

Monday: Pasta
Tuesday: Baby back ribs (trivia night at Smokey Bones)
Wednesday: Baby back ribs (Adam’s company dinner at Tony Roma’s)
Tonight: Pasta

Sorry, but without balance, we would have chaos. Plus, I have this awesome artisanal pasta from Pappardelle’s burning a hole in my pantry.

“ Panera added a totally wicked mac and cheese to their menu. Dangerous, may have to order it again
—

Drisgill

Oh damn. You shouldn’t have announced this. Now I’m going to eat myself into oblivion.

This conversation happened last week:

Coworker: Want to go to ___ BBQ for lunch?
Me: Do they have mac ‘n cheese?
Coworker: Their BBQ is amazing.
Me: I WANT MAC ‘N CHEESE DO THEY HAVE MAC ‘N CHEESE?!
Coworker: I dunno, maybe…
Me: I’m too busy to go out for lunch.

Fact: At the soul food place by my office, I’ve been known to order the 1-entree, 2-side platter with mac ‘n cheese as both of my sides.

Mom, please ignore this post; I don’t mean to upset you.

Flip it and reverse it

A quick Google search turned up about 50,000 suggestions on how to turn various beef leftovers into Beef Stroganoff. And yet, there’s not a single hit on what I can make with Beef Stroganoff leftovers.

Any ideas?

Fewer flourishes, please

Oh yeah, so I’ve been in New York for the past five days. Today was my first day back at work and it was a crazy one.

I’ll try to find some time later to post some of the trip highlights.

Right now, though, I must address a pressing matter.

Listen up; listen good: Yelp is not the place to test out your creative writing/blogging skills. Give me the gist and save the rambling monologue for your LiveJournal. kthxbainao.
