Dinner with Emeril and Alison
So I had a dream last night that Emeril Lagasse, Alison, and I had dinner at this really expensive restaurant. I had won some contest and could bring a friend but the stipulation was no husbands for some reason so I asked my friends who was free and Alison was free the night it was set up.
It was something of a Madhatter's Tea Party. There was a table with foods and drinks and you were charged by what you ate on the table and there were prices next to each dish. I figured since I won that anything I ate would be covered so I had some sort of meat and pumpkin soup and took some of it home for the hubby, then I had some sort of lemon cake dessert, and some sort of red and blue drinks. I don't remember what Alison ate but she was very budget conscious about it only splurging on a dessert with some sort of chocolate in it. Also Emeril had tuna or swordfish or something fishy like that. We talked about Emeril's various cooking shows, his mother, weigh gain and loss, and absinthe.
Then I got a bill for $6000. $3000 of it was for a napkin, which I never used, and the rest was for food. I couldn't understand why I was getting a bill. I had won a contest darn it. Then I woke up and realized it was a dream and that there was no way I could ever spent $6000 on a meal except in my wildest dreams.
