Well hello everybody. Right now I'm instant messaging MariaRose and eating her generic Cap'N Crunch cereal minus the berries. How come no berries? How come we'd rather type than talk, she's 5 feet away? Anyway, eating dry cereal off of a paper plate reminds me of when I was 4 years old. I had such a life when I was four, remember it rather vividly: If I wasn't being ported to Brooklyn (in a stylish sweatsuit, no doubt) to stay with my aunt Phyllis (bus driver)and go to work with her and my Aunt MaryLou (the bus maid) who accompanied her, than I was spending my quality time downstairs with Grandma. I loved doing that so much, life was so simple, and yet she was always so busy. Grandma did something that sticks in my mind every day of my life. You see,I wasn't much of an eater, and in this family that's just not tolerable or comprehendible, so she would find a way. She would make me a hardboiled egg and place it ever so gently into a tiny, ancient green shot glass. It was a perfect fit, I had to eat it. Maybe because of the magical powers it possessed from the piedmonts of Giovanazzo, I couldn't say, but it was beautiful, food-friendly,innovative, brilliant, bulbous...it was Mastandrea. This invention far exceeded that of the automobile, lycra, or Zoobalee Zoo.
Which brings me to the next generation of innovation: when will see Interactive Smellovision? It's way past due. Think of how useful it would be: For the culinary purposes: an expert can help distinguish good mortadella from bad, we would all be able to smell continuous Meatball burps. The list goes on an on. Any thought?
