ok, ok, but If I'm traumatized by telling you about that European stuff...
Here's one. Imagine a lovely banquet. It's dead of winter. The little
German restaraunt is a doggone classic, nestled in the brutal hills above Trier. I wear my most fabulous rabbit fur vest over a cranberry outfit. Someone says that I look like "Conan the warrior with breasts." With a flourish, as I sit next to the boss of my boss, the waiter presents a trout. Whole. With eyes. The poor little mouth, with its gaping, fishy lips seems to say to me in a plaintive voice: "Why me, Conan lady?" I'll never forget the crunch of little fishy neck bones as I was graciously taught to remove that head. I shuddered, gave it a decent, even reverent, burial under a large piece of butter lettuce before I tore into that tasty sucker like a fullback at a Las Vegas all-you-can-eat-buffet. Most satisfyin'. Most difficult. Tomorrow, I'll tell you about the baby birds. |
