I always claimed my sister had that Innsmouth Look.
Slightly lumpy, pop-eyed, good swimmer...

Speaking of HP Lovecraft, I had a calamari soup once that was disturbing. It had tiny little squid that were in these contorted poses poking up through an opaque milk chowder sort of soup. made me want to run my steam ship through them all, damned hell-cephalopods

There is a lot of issues with odd food. I think a lot of it is cultural. I don't like being told that bleu (blau?) cheese is icky and I have no taste from people that like durian and eat those half-developed duck eggs (don't get the eggs at asian markets with the red stamp on them unless you know exactly what you are getting into), but then again I like things like haggis and morsilla, which are really just culturally competent sausages.


Is foodlaw the one that goes: "It is by food alone I set my stomach in motion. It is by the haute cuisine that my gut acquire speed, the heart acquires the burn, the heartburn becomes a warning. It is by my wallet alone I set the table in motion."?

My favorite kitchen supply source is Goodwill, but I am getting fond of flea markets too. Where else can you get a set of 70's Revere Ware pans for $28?
And it has gotten to the point where I only look at the presto pressure cookers ( I mean, for God's sake, how many pressure cookers can you use?)

And more on that boxfood thing. My nephew loves that Kraft Easy-Mac and asks his mum to make it all the time. Is that the same stuff? If so, that doesn't look so bad. OK, it looks bad. But still. I'm not familiar with how you make it, because while the mother's making said easy mac, I'm usually entertaining said kiddo.


I realize that this pushes me darned close to apostasy, but what makes Kraft Mac and Cheese into the food of the gods is to add half a tin of diced up spam into it. You may say treyf, but your tummy says "nom!"

Oh, and for the ballerina, try Pearls Before Swine:

gently caress chickenade, make chicken ale.

This is out of Moxon's English Housewifry Exemplified, isn't it? She suggests you do unnatural things with oysters too.

A pretty good book if you don't mind culinary standards of the 18th Century
