what inspired me to start this damn' blog in the first place ...

well, actually it wasn't a what, it was a who. my good friend mike from back home. on big difference between me and mike, he has a blog, i have a flog. i was sending him, and every other person in my address book, who i think likes to eat, my lunch pix for lack of much else to do whilst i was consuming my lunch. he suggested i start a blog, post the lunch pix and explain how it all got onto the plate. so, that is how i chose to start this flog. the rest, i am afraid to say, will be histrionics.

so that is what i will do.

i guess i will also post some lunches and other meals i have constructed in the past, and provide little tips and antidotes for these recipes.
i do warn you all, i have a low-grade of sophomoric humor that is heavily basted with puns, sarcasm, bad jokes, run-on sentences, and innuendo. and for some reason, i never, if at all possible, use the caps key and prefer an ' to a g.

well, i guess it's time to get cookin' and show you all what i had for lunch today.

baby sea bass moistened with sweet clams in their broth with leeks, celery, sweet butter and lemon juice. accompanied by parsley boiled potatoes and green beans vinaigrette.

mike asked me why every lunch pic i have sent him this past week or so has had green beans on the plate, simple mike, they're in season.
