Dinner II: The Gallery of Regrettable Foods (Part 2)

[Tropicalsenior]

I had the opposite problem with this dish that I made last Saturday. Photographed well and tasted like hell. So if you see a recipe for Russian pork chops, pass! The last pork loin that I got to cut into chops was a little bit tough so I thought I would braise them in some type of sauce. Instead of tough they were just dry and I can't imagine any self-respecting Russian wanting to eat them. Carlos said they were delicious. It's nice to have somebody that compliments your food no matter how bad it is.

The last thing that will die on me is my laugh.  In the depths of depression, grief, despair, and fear I laugh. It is part of my make up from a very young age.  When I was a young women I used to say that I could put up with a lot from a man except for cheapness and no sense of humor.  So we may die broke, but we'll still be laughing.  In my family we laugh at everything.  My mom and I completely embarrassed my grandmother once by getting the giggles (we were BOTH adults) in church.  So, yeah, I appreciate this thread and laugh at food that takes a weird or sordid turn on the way from conception to the plate.

A week in my kitchen would have you rolling in the aisles.
