Things you eat in secret.

There are certain things that people eat that they don't like to admit to eating because when they do, everyone else goes "ewwwwwwwwwwwww".

And who likes getting that reaction? No one. So it remains a secret, and usually all the more pleasurable in its secrecy.

What do I eat when no one is looking? Well for starters I LOVE ketchup & cottage cheese. Yeah, you just threw up in your mouth a little, I know it.

But if you never tried it, you don't know what you are missing. And you know what? You won't die from it.

Also I will Fluff straight out of the jar. Or with baby carrots. And I like mayonnaise flavored with Maggi. With baby carrots. But not mixed with Fluff, because that is gross.

Everyone has their thing.

Sometimes what you like puts you in the minority. Like fondant. I am beginning to feel like I am the only person who will actually eat fondant and enjoy it. Most people like it for the way it looks, but I secretly just want to eat it.

This cake might just look pretty to some:


But all I can think about is tearing off a little piece and eating it.

Hmmm, who is with me on this?

You should be eating: Braised Chicken Meatballs

Image
This was an impulse order at the Dumpling Cafe on Washington Street in Boston. (True story: when I was telling my Mom where it was, I used the Naked i as a point of reference.) I'd actually gone for the xiao long bao (broth filled dumplings) also known as "Juicy Buns", which they are famous for apparently. Hey, better late to the party than to not party at all, right? Because I did my homework, I knew to load one on to the spoon and then to nibble a little hole and suck out the piping hot broth. That is a tip that you will thank me for later, I promise you. There is no time that biting down enthusiastically into a bun filled with scalding hot filling and broth will reward you in any way. Also I knew from my homework that the key was to order everything at once while the waitstaff was near you. So in a panic I ordered the braised chicken meatballs. What a treat! They come with baby bok choy and a plate of rice. I totally think you should go eat them righ...

In April when the temps rise above 40, everyone around these parts switches over to iced coffee with a childlike glee that summah is just around the cornah. However when the temps rise to the 80's we all just complain. It's too soon for the beach, in a day or two the temps will drop back to the 40's, everyone is hot in their Easter dresses, it's too soon for A/C. We complain because we know that summah does NOT arrive in April, no matter how much global warming is happening, the possibility of a snow storm exists right through the end of the month. But hey, it was Easter and it was hot so we grilled and drank cold drinks and ate cool desserts. Sriracha grilled shrimp is literally one of my most favorite things to grill. If you are a recipe person, use this recipe from Food 52: Spicy Shrimp Recipe . If you are a just-wing-it cook like me, you basically marinate peeled and deveined shrimp in a gloopy mess of olive oil, Sriracha, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, br...

The Evil Twin got us iced coffees this morning because it's what you do in Boston when the temps are above 40 degrees. Apparently she ordered hers "fucked up with 28 splenda". There is no other explanation. Unless it's "fuck you and your 28 splenda".
