Oh, what a day...

One of the down sides to having a reputation for high-quality fast work is having people, from time to time, start to rely on such qualities. It's a good way to end up with a string of 5,000-word days, which is good for the pocketbook, I suppose, but gets old once the string gets to be a certain length.

But I don't want to start any kind of pity-party, and so I'll change the subject.

In yesterday's post, I had mentioned that the "lentil loaf" we made didn't have the texture or mouthfeel of meat loaf. It occurred to me—as I was cutting myself a piece of said lentil loaf for lunch—that I might be wrong, as the only thing I really recall about the dish is that it tasted like... well... lentils.

So before I started eating my piece of lentil loaf, I slathered quite a bit of Sriracha hot sauce on it, and then "chowed down," confident that the sauce would numb my taste buds into whatever passes for taste bud catatonia. My confidence, by the way, was well-placed.

I take back all of what I said. Lentil loaf (at least cold lentil loaf) has pretty much the same texture and mouthfeel as meatloaf.

Cheers...
