Tonight we are having Corned Beef (blech) and cabbage. Because I am a generous and loving wife and mother, sometimes I sacrifice myself and cook things I think are disgusting (corned beef) or have an allergy to (shrimp). For some unknown reason, everyone else in my family likes corned beef. I guess I do a pretty good job of cooking it, there have been praises of how delicious the meat is. I’ll take their word for it.
Allison was telling me how raw cabbage tastes like cow poop and we had the following conversation.
Me: “That is gross.”
Allison: “Yeah!”
Me: “Wait, how do you know what cow poop tastes like? You haven’t been eating any, right?”
Allison: “No! EEEWWWW! Jessicus ate it once and told me how it tasted.”
If you don’t know about Jessicus, she is Allison’s imaginary friend. Allison insists she is real and we don’t argue with her. Jessicus always explains the unexplainable.
Ohh….I love corned beef. I may have to make some soon now! It always reminds me of the time that I was working late and had Craig start it – I came home and the little spice packet was floating in the pot. He thought it was perforated to let out the spices – he didn’t realize you are supposed to open the packet and dump it in!
Yeah… never was into corned beef. But we love cabbage! I used to cook it with chicken broth until it was just tender (not soggy) and top with some really great sausage like apple spice turkey sausages. Yum.
