My new philosophy for life is "I'll try it!" The ! is the most important part of the philosophy. It is the anchor that guarantees no chickening out at the last moment. Sometimes I rely very heavily on that !. Even when I don't care for the end result I have always been glad that I gave it a try. Here are a few of my new endevers from the dinner table:
Grilled Oysters-my first taste of oysters. I liked them.
Jumbo Shrimp-I didn't like the texture. It felt like biting into a finger. Yuck.
Clam Spaghetti-Very good.
Buffalo Burgers-Wow, these were seriously great!
Fried Avacados-add a cream cheese filling and drizzle with honey. I'm all over that.
*note - I wish I could take credit for the awesome photos but I only took the last one. Thank you to google images for the rest of them.
Good for you! I need to get more daring in my eating.
ReplyDeleteI love oysters, clams, and shrimp, so now you've got my mouth watering!! I am glad to hear that you are trying new things!
ReplyDeleteI can't do oysters and clams, particularly oysters (I always think of "The Walrus and the Carpenter"!), but looooove shrimp. Glad that (most of) your eating experiments turned out well. :)
ReplyDeleteMy fiance just got me to try oysters. A little icky, but not as bad as I thought they'd be. Being a little more adventurous can be a good, albeit scary, thing!
