Aghhhhh - I'm choking here - really I'm choking on my laughter -
And I promise this will be the last one for awhile - but I swear this is the funniest one yet.
I decided to post the process of our dinner this evening - without telling him
because he already thinks I should be committed somewhere - and he just doesn't " get " blogging,
he really is a very personal person - keeps things to himself - where as my life story is an open book,
always has been - always will be -
Ok - I am not a chef - nor am I an expert with food - but I know what I like - and I know how to make
it appetizing and pretty at the same time................
So we started off with a small Pork Tenderloin - that I cut into small pieces and wrapped in bacon
With Montreal Steak Spice and parsley - not sure if this is sold in the States but you can get it across Canada and it's the best steak spice I swear -
And some garlic jumbo shrimp................
Potatoes and green and yellow beans....................
For the potatoes I just strained them - and mixed in butter - some garlic - some Montreal Steak Spice ( I seriously love this stuff, lol ) and some parsley
and for the beans I added olive oil - with some oregano and parmesan cheese -
Now I'm running around frantically taking these pictures while he's outside with the bar-b-que
And I didn't realize he had come in and was standing behind me
John says - You're
not.
Suzan says - Oh you scared me - don't sneak up on my like that John
John says - You're
not doing what I'm thinking you're doing
Suzan says - what?
John says - You're
not taking a picture of the potatoes for your blog - pls tell me you're not doing this
Suzan says - Well I've noticed lots of people post photos of their meals and add the recipe as they go
John says - This is borderline now - you realize that, right? Absolutely borderline - and if you think people give a damn what your having for supper then you're losing your grip on reality my girl, in fact I think it's long gone now anyway.
Suzan says - It's not that their interested in what I'm eating John - I'm just sharing a recipe really
John says - But I just saw you take a picture of the potatoes - why can't you just type the recipe in - why do people have to
see a bowl of potatoes? Do you think they're stupid? Surely they know what they look like?
Suzan says - So forget it - I won't post the photo of the potatoes - you're really making a big deal out of this.
Suzan says - can you cut up Soda's food please
John - why, are you going to take a picture of what the dog eats?
Yep - that I am -
and just then the batteries died in the camera - and he was sitting down to eat his meal
Suzan says -
STOP - do not eat a bite of that yet - my batteries died
John says - Ok Suzan - enough is enough
Suzan says - I'm going to change the batteries - don't eat until I take a photo
and I run out of the kitchen - change the batteries - but it was too late
John says - I put up with a lot for the sake of your blog - I'm not going to start eating cold suppers
Suzan says - thanks a lot - bon appetit -
and I took a picture of mine instead - but I made his extra pretty because I staged it for photos
Ok guys - this is now where I am seriously choking to death
Our dinner conversation moments later
John says - I thought you were doing a furniture makeover blog
Suzan says - I am - for the most part - but I can sprinkle it with other things to keep it from
getting boring
John says - but you're all over the place now
Suzan says - yes, but I'm MOSTLY furniture - except I can't do a piece of furniture a day
everyday you know, anyway it's sort of an online diary really - and I've made a lot of new friends that I share it with.
SILENCE - and then this: Stone faced serious
John says - so tell me Suzan - if you wanted to do a post on bath salts - would you take a photo of yourself naked in the bath? Just to share with your friends?
Good God - I am going to have a heart attack laughing tonight - I'm still laughing 2 hours later :)
XOX
