Interior Dialogue 1: If this doesn’t work out well, I’ll just delete the pics. No biggie. But I might as well take photos as I experiment, just in case this actually, you know, tastes any good.
Interior Dialogue 2: You do realize that nobody’s home, right? You could just as easily scarf down a bag of pork rinds and save yourself the dirty dishes.
ID1: No fucking way. If they were real pork rinds I might actually consider the option, but not that crap. Besides, the kid will notice that they’ve gone missing. I’m thinking the tomatillos over there are looking mighty nice.
ID2: Yeah, of course, tomatillos. Thatta way to go, you 
reckless wild woman, you. Sure you don’t want that block of triple-cream brie instead?
ID1: No, damn it…wait, there’s brie in the fridge? Never mind. Focus. OK, I’ll roast the tomatillos and some garlic cloves in the oven with a little olive oil.
ID2: Whoopie. I’m going to sleep. Tell me when the pepperoni pizza gets here.
ID1: OK, what goes good with roasted tomatillos? Oooh, I know—corn. 
I’ll sauté some in a pan with some scallions and chili peppers, then toss the whole thing together with the roasted stuff.
ID2: Can we at least have a glass of bubbles while we do this? Please?
ID1: Oh, right, the bubbles. Forgot I had that chilling. What would I do without you?
ID2: Die a sober, healthy virgin probably.
ID1: Cheers! “Tiny bubbles, in the wine…”
ID2: “make me happy, make me feel fine…”
Forty Minutes Later
ID2: mfwwr trrwnfrt ohuiuw mmmmmm
ID1: You’re not supposed to talk with your mouth full, you know.
ID2: Oh for christ’s sake, NO ONE IS HOME…man, this is really, really good.
ID1: See! I’m glad I took pictures to post on the blog.
ID2: Yeah, you gonna take pictures of the Ben & Jerry’s we’re gonna eat later, too?
ID1: I was thinking some watermelon granita would be better.
ID2: Granita. Right. Livin’ large.

Blogs need that little ‘like’ thingy like Facebook has so when you have nothing to say but you enjoyed the read you can just click on it to and a little hand with a ‘thumbs up’ displays instead of a comment.
They say talking to yourself is the first sign of madness … after that anything goes!
I love this!
