With apologies to Julie Andrews...
....and John Coletrane:
My Favorite Things Pancakes with syrup and covered in butter, Ice cream that's made from the stuff from cows' udders, Tasty French pastries that made my heart sing- I've had to give up my favorite things! No more potatoes and no more tortillas, All my coffees are now sugar free-as! I got so fat that I broke the bedsprings So I had to give up my favorite things! No Fig Newtons, No spaghetti, And no Scotch at all! Yes I had to give up my favorite things In hopes that I'll get very small! |

Better to go positive: Lobster with butter and slathered with garlic, Beef stack that's aged till I want to plate lick, Broccoli cheese sauce and jeweled salad bling, I get to eat well of my favorite things! |

Lobster looks just too much like an insect. I can't do it. |

Alton Brown says not to feel bad about boiling the little suckers alive 'cause their just one step above cock roaches. He had one of those neet charts and everything. Yum. Did anyone else see that "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" episode where they had the guy make lobster (salad?) for his gf/wife, showed him how to dispatch the beast with a knife stroke to the head -- but he didn't "get it?" Slaughtered it on TV -- it was a viral video moment -- watching all the Queer Eye guys try to keep from whoopsing their horse dorvers while they were watching that. LOL!!! -- BlueBrooke 254/225/135 |

Well, a bit new here.
But just to chime in, I gave it all up until tonight, when I did have to indulge in a bit of scotch, in memory of those who have gone before. Thanks for mentioning the giving up of the scotch. It's truly fattening.

Kent If it is of any consolation, consider that the human race lived for millions of years without whisky and did not seem to suffer terribly from the lack of it. |
