Remember how I said that Sir Optimization and I were nerds? Well, for Valentine’s Day this year, we decided to make our own dinner. Which seems fairly normal and not nerdy-like. The nerdy part though: we took pictures of our dinner. And then, when were out later that night, we showed off our pictures to friends.
My fellow friend gawked at the fact that someone would a.) take pictures of their food and b.) show those pictures to anyone who pretended to care. Are you one of the people that pretends to care? If so, here’s what we did….
First: We started with fresh grouper
Second: We mixed up bread crumbs, red pepper, yellow pepper, green onions, crab meat, butter and jalapeno
(In case you didn’t know, this is crab meat):
Third: We spread the spread, spreadidly on the grouper
Spreadedlying
Fourth: We baked it with a careful eye
Some of us were taking grouper seriously
Fifth: We made a side dish of brussel sprouts spectacular
Sixth (and last step): We basked in the baked grouper glory
But, Sir Optimization couldn’t stop food-chronicling
And even though they feigned a smile, said friends were horrified by our food chronicles:
"Let's always pretend we're busy when The Bridge wants to hang out." "DONE."
"Did we really just look at a picture of fish?" "'Fraid so, dear."
Regardless, I like to believe that both sets of friends went home that night to try a grouper recipe that they publicy denounced but quietly coveted.
For my dear readers who quietly covet… no need to ask:
Your Welcome. Happy Valentine’s Day.
