Twisted Spinster

Do not watch the Travel Channel program Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations when all you have in the cupboard is ramen noodles. There were three episodes on tonight: one in New York, one in Ireland, and one in Ghana. Everything he put on his plate looked delicious, yes even the Ghanaian cuisine. (I’ve already grown up in the tropics, half the ingredients in Cuban food was originally African, so I could imagine myself downing those delicious-looking spicy stew soups — even the one made of some sort of giant African rat. Hey, rabbit is a rodent too. Mmm, Hasenpfeffer!)
