GOOD FOOD (hey, somebody asked!)

k, i got thinking about one of the questions Camille asked me last post, so i chose to stay up and post. sometimes i do in fact get less than 8 hours sleep, but i always catch up. for the sake of free association, i'm going non-cap, less punctuation on this one.

stuff i'll eat at work; spicy hot chicken wings, aka buffalo wings, lots of salads, often with sauteed prawns atop, with balsamic/olive oil, or wasabi/soy vinaigrette, bacon wrapped scallops, milk, oj, aj, clamato, with jalopeno and habanero tabasco added, bison tenderloin, grilled salmon, steamed asparagus, sauteed mushrooms, sometimes chicken fingers, sometimes soup of the day, rarely steamed mussels, bruschetta, cheddar cheese, cocktail prawns, occasional stir fry, dry garlic ribs, a piece of any kind of vegetable if rummaging the cooler or prepping soup, sometimes a strawberry milkshake, rarely fries and gravy, rarely something i make on pasta, scrambled eggs and bacon for brekkie, rarely cheese toast, panko breaded onion rings, sometimes poached salmon, curried mushroom and escargot appetizer, sometimes a beef dip, or a reuben, or a monte cristo sandwich, oranges, apples, honeydew, cantaloupe, strawberries, 12 grain bread, plain/no butter, steamed brussel sprouts, snow peas, i'm running out of stuff quick, i think that's it. in 7 years at the same job, i have NEVER had a dessert. or tasted chocolate, in spite of it being callebaut.

stuff i'll eat at home; milk, rye bread, occasional purchased sub sandwich, chinese delivery, from taipan cafe in chinatown, typical order includes dinner for two, (which could include pork dumplings, beef in black bean, kung po chicken, szechuan pork, chicken with two mushroom, and always, chicken fried rice and spring roll), along with hot and sour soup, and as many orders of salt and pepper bean curd i can afford, micro'd frozen peas, corn, peas and carrots, green beans, or mixed veg, koolaid, safeway potato salad, olivieri ravioli or tortellini, typically beef or chicken filled, spaghetti, spaghettini, penne, or rotini with homemade bolognese, (tomato sauce with carrot, onion, celery, (aka MIREPOIX), herbs and such), sometimes a take home donair, take home KFC, Harveys, Arbys, but never Mickey D's, sushi from sobeys, michelina's small frozen dinners, (had butter chicken on rice yesterday), ripple chips, pretzels or nachos from dollarama, ramen noodles with sriracha, (a very hot vietnamese chili-garlic sauce), dill pickles, any kind of canned soup, preferably hearty style, lipton sidekick pastas, favorite being butter and herb, sliced, salt and peppered tomato, rye and tomato sandwhich, with margarine and dijon, occasionally will add deli meats, turkey, salami, pepperoni preferred, salads, raw veggies and dip, stuffed green olives, shelled salted peanuts or cashews, (again, dollarama), and, if cooked by someone else, i'll eat pretty much anything not on my no eat list. i'm sure there's rare items i'm forgetting. but NEVER pizza. ech.

If i still went to restaurants, ethnicities of restaurants i would frequent; chinese, japanese, thai, vietnamese, indian, french, italian, ethiopian, greek, would like to try mexican, or, with a group, making a group choice, any kind of general north american food. BUT, that's a BIG but, i will NEVER eat at dead lobster again! (Mother). swiss chalet, ok.
