I didn’t have to cook for someone else. I like to think I am a normal person. That with no one looking over my shoulder I will eat like any other fully grown toddler left to themselves and grab some fast food or microwave some chicken nuggets.
But I had a small loaf of bread I baked earlier with no clear use. I started looking through the cabinets and found an emergency tin of smoked herring and an open bottle of port wine.
Okay, fine. I’ll eat like a fully grown toddler from the 18th century.
This is sooo tasty.
Cost per person: $4
“Smoke me a kipper, I’ll be back for breakfast”
What a guy!
You forgot to invite me…
You didn’t make reservations. I only had the one tin.
Did I just receive 2 excuses from you?
OK well. Book me in for tomorrow please.
Classic toddler behaviour if you ask me.
I’m probably having fast food tomorrow.
I’m starting to think you don’t like me.
We’re fine. I just need to restock and today is just a fully loaded day. By the end of the stress I’ll need a Bacon King or Mexican Pizza to cope.
Ahh fine then.
Friday I’m throwing a party so I’ll be having pizza.
So I vote Mexican pizza!
Do you eat them with the skins on?
If it’s in a tin it’s edible. Skin, bones, egg sack, fish head, whatever. I eats it all.
Cans of smoked any kinda seafood on a cracker with cream cheese has become one of my favorite munchies lately.
I’ve never thought to use herring as a topping. I’ve always eaten it as a side dish with some potatoes or just by itself
Lovely. Enjoy!
Do have a vegetable tomorrow, for balance.
Tomorrow will be a little crazy. Probably going to Taco Bell. Then again it’s been probably a year since I had Burger King.
There ain’t nuthin wrong with Taco Bell!
Out of all the big fast food chains, it’s probably the healthiest food, although that’s just relatively speaking.
It’s definitely my favorite.
The fancy wine glass is 👌
Herrings are great, I love them in every form, nothing wrong with your meal
You can drink port from any glass. Even a mason jar. I’ve actually drank a $100 bottle of vintage port from a quart mason jar. But I have found that an ISO compatible port glass really is the best way to grab the full flavor experience for port wine.
I have to trust your word. I have a couple of bottles of wine I got as gifts in my basement, even though neither the giving or receiving party actually drinked wine. I think it was meant to be a classy gift or something?
Anyway, the ones I could use for cooking are used up, and the medium sweet that’s left will probably be there until I pass or become an alcoholic.
Edit: the thing about becoming an alcoholic. It’s not to insult anyone, it’s to say wine is my least favourite alcohol and alcoholics will drink anything under pressure.
