*Wholfoodzzz comes through with a photo!*
On the off chance that anyone thinks that I’ve grown as a blogger or a person, let my complete failure to photodocument the recipe I’m about to describe serve as a reminder that I am useless and largely dependent on genital jokes and Mission Street Food anecdotes to maintain my readership. (MSF is back on December 4, by the way. We are switching to a Hot Off the Grill with Bobby Flay format: one celebrity chef, a Tony Soprano–esque butcher vying with an avuncular fishmonger for screen time, and Jacqui Malouf. Anybody? That was funny for viewers of early-2000s FoodTV. If I can bring a smile to but one child, then I have succeeded.)
Last night Peg and wholefoodzzz hosted a Friends Thanksgiving at their apartment. I dressed up as Phoebe and brought the “smelly cat souffle.” OH JUST KIDDING THAT’S NOT WHAT A FRIENDS THANKSGIVING IS, IDIOT. (more…)

This concludes our Miami-themed programming. Up next, posts based on old notes I found in my iPhone, while writing down notes about Miami. Topics may include: cognitive dissonance, Kunming (China), Spanish hogs, and forgotten corners of the world.
PS. I just ate a leftover cucumber from last night’s Friends Thanksgiving. More on that (Friends Thanksgiving, not the cucumber, which was sort of weird tasting) later.
