senses failed

This is my debut entry. Thanks to @explauren and two others for telling me to aim low, it was the confidence boost I needed to get started.


Saturday evening was spent at Tacos A Go Go. With juices from the smokey barbacoa taco rolling down my hand, which is a Go-Go's best, I realized that the mood at our table of 10 plus was g.d. depressing. I didn't hesitate to mention it, which I think made the sitch worse being that it was a friend's birthday celebration. It took me a few but it eventually hit me...f-ing "Free Bird." It was on the loud speakers. The song is a classic, but it pisses me off when people think that it's so good it should be played constantly. It was followed by depressing 80's heart-broken themed songs, one after another. There seemed to be no end, that was until we walked out.

Music is a huge part of food for me, especially when dining out. There are food genre codes, and these must be followed religiously. The Carpenters shouldn't be playing with a full stack of ribs and Austin baked beans, Sinatra doesn't pair up with spinach enchiladas, and if I ever hear Nickleback, ever again, in any situation really, I will put out a $27 reward for Chad Kroeger's heart, in a Kroger's plastic shopping bag.

I am going to start a food quest. I am in search of the best slice of pizza in town. Any suggestions? Also, I would like for this blog to stimulate some conversation. If you are reading this far, cool. Comment back. Come up with worst song and food pairing, or something.
