prosodicLast night before I went to bed, I was watching Globe Trekkers, which I think is a fantastic PBS show. They were in Crete, and the host was eating souvlaki in a pita. It made me long for doner kebap.
*sigh*
Then I was watching Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations right before lunch. He was in Namibia, hanging out with a bushman tribe. And they served him warthog anus.
That made me lose my appetite. He didn't seem to be enjoying it too much either. It was, however, a pretty funny episode to watch. I find Anthony Bourdain endlessly amusing. Perhaps it's because he's snarky, and I enjoy good snark.
Then I turned to Food Network, where Road Tasted visited Seattle. YAY! Got my appetite back and now I really want to go back into downtown Seattle again ASAP. Lance hasn't been there exploring with me yet.
Anyway, I just finished making a potato salad for tonight. I had one baking potato that needed used up, so I cut it into chunks and boiled until fork-tender. For the dressing, I combined a couple splashes of olive oil, a couple splashes of Zesty Italian dressing, pepper, onion powder, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, and sundried tomatoes in olive oil. So hopefully that will make for a tasty dinner tonight. Think I'll be eating it with tuna fillets this evening, but I imagine it would also be really good with chicken and Italian sausage.
I am feeling somewhat better today. Throat is still a bit scratchy, but not nearly as sore as it was yesterday. Tomorrow I expect it will be business as usual.
