What is that thing in the bowl? I'm jealous of you

Just found out how to cook beans after several weeks of starvation

Here's a tip for anyone eating nothing but doktor martini food: if you're still hungry, it means you have to add beans

or stop.....eating doktor martini foods..

Tostadas topped with refried beans, beef, pico de gallo, and cheese.  Washed it down with a Beck's. (Not my first choice, but it was on hand.  I hear this beer tastes better if you happen to actually be in Germany.)

Just had some pan seared wild mushrooms...yummm.

Just ate half of a blueberry pie.

there's a part of me which gets really irritated when people specify ingredients to the degree of 'sundried tomato french bread'. oh, you mean bread? why are people talking like the packaging of food on the Specialty Gourmet range of supermarket food?

am i being some kind of prick here...i think it's a combination of being annoyed at the money behind it all, and being grossed out by people who use that much detail when it comes to food. i probably do it myself, though. like when i someone asked what i had for dinner i said something like 'OH YOU KNOW, just some ricotta cheese and spinach pasta. put some chili flakes in there...some garlic....sauteed that mess right up.'. ricotta cheese, eh? thanks for that. thanks for not just saying 'pasta', i can see you've got some culinary knowledge there. sorry alec, i don't mean to pick on you. i'm not sure what i think.

We ordered a pizza.  Roundtable biznitches.

also in fairness a baguette with little bits of sundried tomatos and probably herbs in it is a little different to a loaf of kingsmill sliced white, it's worth specifying. i guess it is just case by case

I think it's fine if you're describing what you ate, ie this thread, but not if you're ordering something. I doin't know why I have that distinction. Maybe because if you say it when you're ordering something it implies "only this incredibly specific thing will do." I also get annoyed when people order paragraph long types of coffee in coffee shops so maybe I'm just a culinary doofus

no, it's nuts when some guy's sitting with his arms crossed in this chain restaurant ordering in a stern tone which specific ingredients he wants on his hamburger, most of which are normally included according to the menu. then he proceeds to order what his wife will have
