PMS: Tell it Like It Is. Your cravings, Babe (Part 2)


Recommended Posts

My 14 yo just redefined PMS for me.

It now means, "Please Make Sticky Buns".

(Dorie Greenspan's Pecan Sticky Buns, that is.)

Ever get a craving you didn't know you had, till you ate the thing that you were craving?

I sat at my kitchen table, last night, flicking apart Dunkin Donuts, with a very sharp knife, sampling a bite or two of every one of 2 dozen.

I mean, normally I HATE D&D. Just the smell of the place gives me heartburn, the doughnuts are flavorless fat-balls that aren't worth the calories...till my good friend Angel brought some over, last night.

I think it was the bourbon talking, but somewhere last night I lamented between mouthfuls of fat-balls, that Dunkin Donuts didn't deliver. (don't stare, bourbon cuts the richness of the doughnut, and makes for a nice balance. That's what I told myself.)

Today in the sunlight a rational head prevails, and I do feel slightly ashamed. I had to come here and confess.

let's get serious here, girl. which bourbon?

Nothing is better than frying in lard.

Nothing.  Do not quote me on this.

That sounds good!

Macaroni cheese with crunchy panko parmesan topping and gooey cheesey goodness inside with a large side of medium rare steak with lots of black pepper.

Hot rice with samgyapsal wrapped with perilla and lettuce leaves, and all the panchan...*cry*

Real cheese mixed with melted velveeta, and rotel, and potato chips!

Sour gummies with buttered lightly salted popcorn.

BROWNIES!

Oyster Po Boy Sandwiches - I made the batter of the oysters extra salty and added lotsa mustard and mayo on top of the fried oysters. It also helped that the baguette was garlic flavored one. Bliss

*sigh*, it must be that time again. (I never keep track, tho I should, but hey, it's gonna come anyhow) I actually got in my truck and drove the ten miles to the store at 10:30 last night to buy a sirloin. I couldn't get it under the broiler fast enough, ripped it apart at rare, and sat curled on my bed reading, with cow blood dribbling down my chin. Thankfully, the spouse is still out of town, he would have immediately sent for the men in white coats after I growled when he got too close to my meat.

Beef, rare beef, ahhhhhhhhhh the beauty of it. That, and very salty, vinagery, salt and vinager chips, by the bags full. And margarittas, lots of salt and lemon. And salty dogs. And, salted lemons, sliced very thin and marinating in their juices to nibble on. :wink: I might have a thing for sour and salt, I think.

I whistfully mentioned how I missed sushi. Truly horrified, she told me "you city folk eat the strangest things!", and offered me a freshly fried chitterling!

I can tell you from a semi-recent PMS experience that sour cherry hard candies and cheese popcorn taste better together than they sound.

Maker's Mark. Nectar of life.

:biggrin:

Sister: Come to Chicago. I have a world to share with you, a good bit of it seen either from a bar stool or a rather classier tabletop.

(Also a few lesson/demonstrations in the combined areas of crisp champagne and glorious savory unctuous cheese, right around the time the Red Flag Flies. Not to mention a steak house Zagat doesn't know about yet.)

:laugh:

Me, I vote for the joyride every time.

Oh my favourite is the strawberry sour tapes with salty buttery parmesan cheese popcorn :wub: ...But any sour candy and salted buttered popcorn will do in a pinch...I will have to try the sour cherry candy and cheesy popcorn. Any brand recommendations?

The great thing about barbeque is that when you get hungry 3 hours later....you can lick your fingers

Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

Bourbon has a wonderful soothe-the-savage-She-Beast effect at certain phases of the lunar cycle, doesn't it? :biggrin:
