Are you going to eat that?!?!?
I just finished a can of smoked oysters, and while eating up the last morsel of oyster, I thought about how many people would find my love of unusual foods quite disgusting.

So, I thought I would come up with a list of the stuff I like to eat, that would qualify as pretty nasty for some.

1.canned oysters (with hot sauce)
2.sardines(canned)
3.smoked fish (any kind)
4.ham hocks (especially the blubber)
5.pickle soup (seriously, there is such a thing, and it's really good for a hangover)
6.pickled herring
7.picked wild mushrooms (refer to below)
8.wild mushrooms in cream sauce (really wild mushrooms, that I pick myself from the forest. I know that people here don't pick wild mushrooms, but in Europe everyone does)
9.steak tartar (which is totally raw, not heated or cooked, with raw egg yolk, onions, pickle, touch of mustard, oil)
10.gelatinous ham hock bits with carrots (this is a solid gelatin thing that sets over night that you eat with vinegar)
11.beet soup
12. mashed beets, with horseradish or without, with cream or without, hot or cold
13. solid bacon lard spread on bread
14. liverwurst (on bread)
15. headcheese
16. although i'm not a huge fan, but I've done it a few times......bone marrow (cooked) form a shank of veal or beef.

Funny thing is my daughter looooves all this stuff too.

I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting, but I'm kinda hungry...so gotta go!

Please, anyone, if you have anything to add to the list, feel free to do so, I would love to know what kind of other stuff people eat! I hope I'm not all alone, but I fear that I may be...hee hee.

Oh! I miss you! I do hope we get to hang out before you leave for the UK!

Well, I'm a veggie so most of that is out for me, but I do love mushrooms! I ate a fried Mopani worm once - it was disgusting.

Lush rocks! I bought some solid massage "oils" (they are solid; they melt with the body heat) in Pasadena for my babe, and she was super-ultra-mega thrilled. Needless to say, that weekend is a blur... ;)
theecarey - 12/10/05 16:30
Right on! I have been to the Lush store in Toronto.. many yummy products; I am a fan of the bath bombs and the conditioning hair goops. I am sure I would like anything, though, except for some of the prices. I think you can make your own concoctions as well.

Dirty Girl
I've been having dirty dreams for the past few nights. The night before last, I had a lesbian lover and last night I dreamt I had two guys all to myself.

The school pressure is getting to me....I just want it to be over!!!!

Maybe I just need to get laid, maybe it'll help clear my mind and I'll get these stupid assignments done.
imk2 - 12/10/05 17:00
oh no problems, its just that i wish i could be having all this crazy sex, but instead i have to do this never ending work. but don't get me wrong, i love the sex dreams, i actually can orgasam in my dreams. i don't know many girls that do. so, ya, it's fun.
theecarey - 12/10/05 16:35
I pick option #2!!!
My dreams are always dirty. Oh the variety the mind can come up with! My friends are envious, so just enjoy them. You can go out and get laid, but the dreams won't stop. So, whats the problem? lol :)
metalpeter - 12/10/05 12:31
Wow wish I was in your dreams they sound a lot of fun, or at least watching them. Was it a stright or bi 3 way. If geting laid is what you need I'm sure you will have no problem with that. Could you some how send your dreams my way the few I have are lame.
ladycroft - 12/09/05 21:33

New job and London
So I have a new job

I will be working as a research technician at the University at Buffalo Research Institute on Addictions. Its only a part time position since I refuse to work full time while being still in school, but they did offer. My kid and a personal life mean too much to me and I am not one of those people who can do 5 things at once. Plus, I'm kinda lazy. But the good news is; even tho this is a part time position, I get full benefits. YAY!!! When does that ever happen.

Because I have to start this new job on January 3rd, I decided I must go on vacation. I'm done with school after this weekend, after I turn in all my late shit, so, next Sunday I'm going to London. Sunday to Friday. I'm totaly stoked. I went last year in January and had perfect weather, I can't wait to go to Harrod's during xmas time!


ladycroft - 12/09/05 01:14
yay for you! i love london too. have fun!
leetee - 12/09/05 00:23
Congrats on the job!

have fun in London. I love England. I miss it lots. Although i do not, nor will i ever, miss any shops in London during xmas time... too crazy for me!

Anthony-My secret lover
Does anyone else have a crush on Anthony Bourdain from the Travel Channel?

He swears, he drinks, he smokes, and he's got a snide sense of humor. My kind of man.
