Letter to Erin 20160520

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

Gluten free, huh?  You poor little sweetheart.  Come here, let me give you a hug.  I have to have my bread, darling.  I still have my voracious appetite, so I have to have man sized portions.  So salads, huh?  I loathe salads, but I will make them for you.  I used to make countless salads of all types when I worked in a restaurant.  Have to please the ladies, I guess.  And they certainly scoffed down copious amounts of the stuff.  I do need to get my salad dressing chops back, I've gotten rusty in that area.  That's because the dressing is usually the most expensive part of the salad.

That photo of you in Brazil looks almost post-apocalyptic.  Have you ever seen the movie, "The Road Warrior?"  That's the movie that made Mel Gibson famous.  Are you involved with the Olympic games there?  It must be convenient to use all the facilities they built for the last football-you-play-with-your-feet World Cup.  Very expensive.  Just like the Olympic games.  They must have every Brazilian involved in paying the mortgage.  Have you seen the ruins in Sochi?  I'm not attracted to Brazilian women.  I prefer blondes.  You.  But if you were to ask me which Brazilian model is the prettiest, I would vote for Ana-Beatriz Barros.  I posted a video of the old VS models in Venice.  Listen to what those women say.  I don't think they're kidding.

Ya Allah, please protect my beloved Erin.  I love you, my darling Erin.  And I need you.  Are you hungry?  For lunch, I had some store-bought curry that I had to use up, so I fried up some bread to go with it.  I don't like bread sticks anymore.  I don't like the texture.  The shape of bread is what influences the texture inside.  So instead of sticks, I made mini pizza shapes.  But the air inside ballooned the dough, and made it extra yummy.  Dinner was fried flat noodles with cockles.  A local standard, so I didn't include a recipe.  I believe the key is simplicity, and to let the cockles carry the flavor.  Delicious.  You must try some.
