No more ouzo

Well, I really enjoyed the Greek Festival. Probably enjoyed it a little too much. I am NEVER drinking ouzo again. The food was superb. The festival was held right on the Halifax River. We even saw a dolphin. Just look at that food!!!

Oh no!!!!

I'm not quite sure what is up with me. On Thursday night I made rice pudding. My salt was refusing to come out of the cannister. So I shook it really hard, but I made the mistake of holding the measuring spoon over the rest of my dry ingredients. I obviously didn't notice that a lot of additional salt kinda went in too. So my rice pudding was inedible because i t was too damn salty.

Last night, I decided to make corn bread bites from a recipe in "Cooking Light" magazine. I was yakking on the phone with a friend while combining the ingredients. And I kinda forgot the egg. So I ended up with sort of but not quite cornmeal hush puppies. I dunno. I really didn't like the taste of them though, although I sure the lack of egg could have played a part in that. They were more savory than sweet and I think I like my cornbread on the sweet side rather than the savory side.

Today I'm not making ANYTHING. Instead I'm heading down to the 31st Annual Greek Festival here in Daytona with a friend.
