hahahaha! Yes - it so was :) Plus he was a workman, so he had that really rough gruff loud manly voice when he said it. God i loved it. I was so intensely HAPPY when i heard him practically yelling it down the phone. i grinned so wide, it almost split my face in half ::head falls apart at the memory::
my pleasures are so small and low brow. :)
oh YUM!!!!! French toast is just the best! And you're so right - good food has the power to transport us all to such a happy place. And i think that's so wonderful and magical. i love it.
Everyone goes on and on about how it's such a bad thing being 'comfort eaters' but i think that's such a pile of poo! Because really, food is ALL about comfort isn't it? I mean once you get over the immediate need to satisfy 'hunger', people equate food with more than just fuel - it's about taste, smell, sensation etc.
really really good thick slice cinnamon toast, for me, is a little bit of heaven. seriously. or perfectly warmed hot milk so it has a slight froth, with a light sprinkle of fresh grated nutmeg on top...::happy sigh:: Chamomile or peppermint tea when i'm stressed out. All of these things make me feel SOOOO good.
Just thinking about them now is making me smile and relax :) Yay yummy good food.
And yay to your french toast. btw: aside from loving how it tastes i also just love it's name - ever since i was a little kid i've loved it's name. i always imagine some funny little french dude coming into my kitchen to help me make it hahahahahaha LAME ::lol::
Peppermint tea! My total weakness. I don't drink coffee anymore (haven't for oh, 15 years), so I drink a cup every morning before I start working. One whiff and I swear, I think I get a little high. Settles the nerves, makes my mouth tingle and I'm all smiley and happy. Don't know if you guys get the brand Teekanne, but OMG, it's THE best. Hee, french toast, french fries, french kisses - seems if something is really yummy, we have to put a french in front of it. Oh, the decadence of it all! I'm seriously considering abducting the restaurant's chef and chaining him/her to my stove to make me some of that toast every day! But I'd probably get in trouble for that, lol.
Mmmm ... they served it with bacon, caramalized banana and golden syrup and I want to write it sonnets and odes and lovesongs! :D
