    I have been keeping my change for the past year... Counted + rolled it last night.
    Over $243 :D

    the store bought puttanesca I had for lunch today was good, but not nearly as good as Asteroid Cafe's puttanesca
    mmmm

    Asteroid Cafe's puttanesca was really fucking great.
    Good call on that, Dru

    hey, Geek ordered it
    I was just saying I really love puttanesca and it ended up being a happy coincidence! :D

    All the food there was great.

    I used to go to this Christian Fellowship thing on Thursday night a few years back; it was a college meeting where they'd make dinner for everyone; luckily there wasn't a worship or sermon time attached, just the "fellowship part." I ate a lot of those meals.

    I'm about to have to be very careful on how I spend money, and getting more food for my buck will be a necessity.

    I haven't spent any money since Sunday. I've only worked about 16 hours this week and made a little over $900. I need to work as little as possible more often.

    The only thing I've spent money on other than food and booze since about march has been a $20 Capo for my acoustic for a performance. That'll pay $1,000.

    I am willing to bet that I could make a sheet of corrugated cardboard not just palatable, but fucking delicious

    Should I care to try

    Admittedly, I have a deep fryer, so that may make things easier

    Fuckin' everything tastes good deep fried

    I had some pizza on the train to PAX and I'm sure that was just cardboard with some soggy paper on it.

    We have a pizza place here with $1 slices.

    at 3AM on Thurs/Fri/Sat it's packed.


    If you thought you've tasted soggy paper on cardboard, you haven't

    Boxes of frozen burger patties are a damn good value, and will keep reasonably for a good month. Throw them on some white bread with some cheese and you're good to go.

    Also, random seasonings make shit foods taste better. Go to your local grocery store and buy yourself a bottle of greek seasoning or tiger seasoning. Nobody knows whats in that shit, but nobody cares because it's great.
