My always* fascinating Random Musings.....linking up with Shana from Fumbling Towards Normalcy.
Last night for dinner we had baked potatoes, Brussels sprouts and apple sauce. I sat down the apple sauce in front of my husband first and he was all "Oh, apple sauce. Usually when the apple sauce comes out it means you are phoning in dinner." Burn. But true, not my best effort.
Some of my friends and I recently signed up for a "beer school" at a local restaurant. A brewery comes in and you get to sample 6 mini beers and the chef at the restaurant pairs the beers with 6 appetizers. I just checked out the menu for that night (it's set in advance) and apparently I will possibly be sampling grilled beef heart. I feel like I will have some emotional/mental problems eating that, but the rest of the menu looks good, so we'll see.
This is a very boring work story. You have been warned. I ordered some supplies for another department. The order came and my credit card was charged. Then the order came again and my credit card was charged even though we didn't order the items and didn't accept them. Then the order was credited. Then the order was accidentally credited again but only part of it. This is not the whole story but basically I was on the phone with Staples for like 3 hours on Tuesday and I had to spread the paperwork out on the floor in my cube because it wouldn't all fit on my desk. In conclusion, I'm so important here at work. Changing lives one Staples order at a time.*
Hobie Vs the Balloon is still happening. Even though the balloon has shrunk greatly, Hobie is still losing this battle due to fear.
My team won trivia this week because I knew that Bobby Brown was 42ish instead of 58ish (like the other team guessed in the tie-breaker answer). Go me.
Have a great weekend everybody!

grilled beef heart. wow. i'd be leary of anyone who was excited about eating that. maybe if you drink a ton of beer first it'll be more okay? maybe?
Okay so beef heart isn't that bad. My husband and I go to a Peruvian restaurant and he LOVES to get an appetizer that consists of grilled tripe (stomach lining), chicken livers and beef heart. The heart is the best part of the dish (and then only one that I will consistently eat). It's actually very tasty- don't be nervous.
I find your musing fascinating.
And I wouldn't eat the grilled beef heart. I'm an adventurous eater...but not that adventurous.
So I say to your musings ... Good luck with the beef heart - and xtra good luck to B with that ... Poor Hobie! ... you're totally a VIP at work ... and clearly a CLUTCH answer at trivia. Happy Weekend!
There is a mexican place here that always has really out there special - like tripe tacos or beef tongue empanadas. I'm pretty sure they have heart quesadillas*, or something too.
*Not that I have tried any of it...I stick to the pork, thankyouverymuch
grilled beef heart... I am excited. You ate tongue and tail right? I mean you at least tried it... be adventurous and in the future, please stop reading the menu for beer school before hand. It will be delicius, I promise.
Ive had grlled beef heart. its pretty good. no fear.
