Anyway.. every year at this hotel in a nearby town there is a buffet on Christmas Eve. Anyway, each table at the buffet is from a different country. So we go there as usual, and we are waiting for our table for about 20 minutes, and they have all these different Christmas trees in the lobby, decorated to suit each country they are having at the buffet. And one of them was Mexico. And in the far corner of the room is a tree covered in.. yep, you guessed it: glittery pepper ornaments and TAMALES!

Oh, and the same night I showed the concert pictures to a friend of my mom's, and we had doubles of each picture. And a really good one of Edge went missing. So the whole evening I kept thinking,"She likes EEEEDGE and couldn't resist taking a picture, ha ha ha.." (as a joke of course), and then later I find it stuck to another picture. Oh well, still funny to think of.

Hmmm... tamales. Well, this is not tamale realated but it's food related so....

Today we had REAL cranberry sauce and all I could think was... "I want the kind out of a can with the rings and the distinct flavor of tin" LMAO @ myslef trying to be like Bono

I had that kind. I wanted to eat it out of the can to be like Bono, but my mom said "No"!!!
 
I had cranberry sauce... whole, no ridges.

I could draw nothing that had to do with U2 from the food.

LOL, I was at my GRANDPARENTS HOUSE! So it was even more inappropriate!

ME: *giggling hysterically*
GRANDMA: What's wrong?
ME: Do you have any cranberry sauce with the little rings on it?
GRANDMA: No, I wanted to make special sauce for this Christmas.
ME: Too bad. *pouts at the table like she's 4 again*
GRANDMA: *wonders why her 19 yr old granddaughter is pouting*

LOL

All this talk of Tamales is giving me a craving for Mexican food.

My family is so hilarious ... they always insist on eating the cranberry sauce from the can (it's tradition, they insist). I (being the Martha Stewart wannabe that I am) want to make fresh hommeade cranberry sauce, but they just won't let me.

Okay.. reading a book yesterday.. and the person in the book has this German teacher who doesn't speak English extremely well, and he was doing some thing for the class with billiard balls and he put them on a tea towel to hold them still. And the main character raises her hand and asks,"Why do you use a tea towel?" and he says,"To keep my balls still." AND, of COURSE, right away I start thinking about PLEBA and Larry.
