The Budget Gourmand
So, this isn’t exactly food related, but this guy Straun who looks a lot like me keeps sharing my videos, so I’m sharing one of his in return, even though he is kind of a jerk.
If you like this, you might want to show it to other people who might like it too. Or you might want to not do that.

I didn’t even know that President’s Choice trafficked in this sort of thing!
I’m taking a week off this week, because I haven’t started making the episode yet, and because I don’t want to make it right now, and supposedly I am the creator of my own destiny. So instead I am going to be picking planning flower arrangements for a wedding that I really don’t want to have, because Abbey has decided that that is more important.
What do you think of watermelon flowers? Abbey thinks they’re stupid.
Oh, THIS is what people mean when they talk about food porn.

I had to stop eating sushi because of a recurring dream I used to have where this giant accidentally rolls me up in a California roll, which I never really minded, but then he takes me to work, and misses lunch because of an important business call, and leaves his sushi in his desk drawer for several days. The fish just keeps smelling worse and worse until I think I’m going to go insane, and that’s when I wake up, all wrapped up in my bedsheets, and covered in fish.
Check out the link for step by step instructions on how to roll sushi along with a healthy, vegetarian sushi recipe!

Blend it in your blender, or process it in your food processor! Add more water as needed to blend. Chill, and garnish with something that looks cool.

I had to. It’s the only way to test the spice level. Maybe if I had a higher budget for my videos, I would have hired a stunt double, then digitally replaced his face with my own. Except I don’t know anyone who is that good at special effects, so instead I would probably have to have my face temporarily transplanted onto his. And then I would be sitting around without a face until the shot was finished and they could put my face back on. But at least I wouldn’t have to put a bunch of hot sauce in my mouth.

That’s probably true. Especially now that there’s a worldwide epidemic of cannibalism. You might end up eating a person!
Alternatively, if you’re trying to eat a person, you might not be eating a person.
Good advice.
