For the most part, Stewart and I are the same when it comes to food. We both love to try out different ethnic foods and aren’t too picky. The big exception has always been spice level. He can tolerate really spicy food while I’m a baby.
Where we don’t agree is lasagna.
This is Stewart’s favorite dish. He could probably eat it every day for a week. This is my least favorite dish of all times. If I know I am going to have to eat it, I feel like I have to work myself up to it. I just don’t like it.
I’ll usually suck it up though and eat it at least once since I know Stewart likes it so much. We try to make it a little more bearable for me by either opting for veggie or cheese. I can tolerate it for dinner and then just pack the rest for Stewart’s lunches.
Rita says she can make Western food. She’d been talking about making lasagna for awhile. Last week, she said she’d make it but I was able to keep that from happening until this week. Yesterday, she made lasagna for dinner. On our drive home, Sunil kept talking about how much we were going to like it. I was dreading how much we would have to eat.
Turns out that this was also like the time that Sunil made us “spaghetti”. The only thing it had in common with spaghetti were the noodles.
Rita’s “lasagna” had lasagna noodles and ground meat. That’s pretty much it. Oh yeah, there was a swirl of ketchup on the top. No sauce, no cheese. Nothing to make you think lasagna. It was almost like a weird Mexican enchilada dish.
I feel bad for Stewart. He was really looking forward to it too. I think it was more tolerable because it really wasn’t lasagna. Should make eating leftovers for dinner a little better tonight.
