Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
there was this dish with a lot of different brightly colored beans and lentils that I couldn't deal with either. Too many colors. God. I've got some weird issues.
For the love of God, if you ever see a child swinging a stick at a piñata, drop whatever you're doing and run.
Perhaps it's different elsewhere, but the naan that's available at two restaurants here is not unlike a gray, droopy sponge that's been sliced into wafer-thin servings.
sarameg, lori tells me that Wild Animal Park is even better than the zoo because big animals, roaming.
(Except naan—BLECCCHH!)
Quo?!?
Thinking back on it, I seem to have had an awful lot for lunch today. First at 11:30 I had some cheese popcorn, but that was really a snack, not lunch. Then at noon I had the kick-ass chicken salad I brought from home (with almonds and grapes). Then at 1:30 I went to a birthday party that I thought was going to be just cake, but turned out to be a full lunch, but I was very restrained and only had a couple of plantains and one piece of blood sausage whose name in Spanish I can't remember. (Edit: morcilla.) And some ice cream cake.
I don't know what my ideal lunch is. It varies.

But that's candy! Candy is ok! M&M's don't reduce me to a quivering lump. Neither does fruit salad. I don't get it either.
Except naan—BLECCCHH!
Okay, now THAT is crazy-talk.
I've never had naan.
I've never had naan.
Dude! Quite depriving yourself.

Oh, Matt. I weep for you. (Not "sweep for you," which I typed twice.)
I don't even like fried chicken, yet ... I can't deny the chicken/waffle appeal. Throw in that mac and cheese? OH GOD OH GOD MY GOD.
See, I like fried chicken, and I like waffles, but the idea of them being on the same plate just disturbs me. (Also, maple syrup + fried chicken = ew, in my head.) But I might try it, should it be offered, for lo! I am adventurous.
Mac & cheese, though, is a dealbreaker. It's one of those foods I decided I didn't like when I was five, and every time I try some I decide I'm still right. I agree that adding broccoli -- say, a 75-25 ratio of noodles to broccoli -- would make it more edible. Also, the noodles should be spirals or penne, because I hate the way macaroni looks.
Hi, I'm a freak.
