LEFTOVERS
There are going to be a lot of leftovers after the holidays. Roasts, casseroles, desserts. Is fruitcake technically a leftover if it never was opened in the first place? I never have any leftovers. I eat everything on my plate except the plate. Unless I’m eating a tostada and the plate is a tortilla – then I’ll eat the plate, too. I think it’s great that if people don’t eat all their food, they save it for later. “Waste not, want not” is my motto. My motto used to be, “If I don’t waste anything, I won’t want anything” but it sounded better shortened. If I don’t eat something, it’s probably because I didn’t like it. “Excuse me Waiter, I can’t eat this chicken. It’s too dry – could you wrap it to go, for me?” “But first, could you give it a drink of water?”
