Shrimps
A month or so ago (e:businesscheese)'s 'rents came into town. Like everything else in my life it turned into a competition into who could win their affections. Papa (e:businesscheese) hearts 3 things: Cap'n Crunch, Coca Cola and Shrimp. I combined 2 of his loves into one delicious appetizer. Needless to say they were a hit.

First you take fresh whole jumbo shrimp. Peel and de-vein.

Dip in seasoned flour then egg.

And most importantly the Cap'n Cruch. I love how it's Cap'n Crunch and not Captain Crunch.

image
Fry.

I don't have any pictures of the finished product, but they were delicious.

Yes it can be. Although being stoned while making them would prob hinder the final product.

I guess I'm still blown away. Can that be considered stoner cuisine?

You are so making those when you come to visit next. I also commented on (e:businesscheese)'s journal because I hadn't seen yours yet.
businesscheese - 04/17/09 11:46

They were crack. You succeeded in winning Greg's affection.

Salvatores
In Feb when Momma Ho and I went to visit le bebe we stayed at Salvatores. It was amazingly tacky. It was pretty much like staying at your Italian Grandmothers House if it was decorated for Easter.

It's good to be back
After the world's most dramatic vacation (I blame PMS for my insanity) I'm back in the city. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about this as I kinda just wanted to go somewhere and forget about life period.

Turns out being back is not so bad. When I arrived at work everyone was actually happy to see me. It's a nice feeling. And despite having a shit load of work, I'm not hating work at all.

And the icing on the cake: Saks is having a huge sale. I went and bought some lip balm, various face creams (I'm such a sucker for that junk) and (drum roll) Marc Jacobs sunglasses.

Basically I'm going to use work and retail therapy to drown my sorrows. As of day one it's working.
businesscheese - 04/16/09 17:27
Yay! I'm glad you're back, too.

And I can't think of a better welcome wagon than wine and snacks with your favorite bitches on a private deck overlooking Manhattan.

Convo with lilho
Me: I am not dramatic.

Sarah: OMG you are so dramatic.

Me: Um. No.

Sarah: You take it to the next level. You have drama and then you instill fear into the general public.

Me: Oh. I can't argue that.
