So I just had my first meatball sandwich. I gotta say, I wasn’t impressed. I always thought that it would be…I don’t know…wetter. I mean I ate it, but I was expecting this big, delightful Italian Taste Sensation and I just got…meatballs.
In bread.
With red sauce.
But it was kinda lame, which leads me to ask today’s big question.
Today Plumcake wants to know:
What was the biggest food-related disappointment of your life?
and as a little palate cleanser (and keeping with the theme of hot Italian dishes) I wanted to remind you that it’s not too early to order your 2009 Calandario Romano.
HELL-OOOO PADRE!
Blue crab. My mother waxed poetic for years about the little critters. I’ve eaten Dungeness crab every Christmas Eve for half of my life, so this all sounded pretty good.
We attended a blue crab boil on the eastern shore of Virginia with a huge chunk of my dad’s family, and I managed to get through 2-3 crabs before giving up and eating a cheeseburger. They are incredibly labor intensive for what you get and I was afraid I’d starve to death in front of a pile of food. Argh.

This site covers almost identical stuff… That’s strange…

Sporks are actually a combination of a spoon and fork that is made of metal or plastic for dining. The metal sporks are made with metal and are more durable in the long run. Though basically it is a spoon with tines on the end and is also suitable to use as a fork. Sporks are like manna from the gods. Do you prefer metal or plastic?
