It's just the last coupla days my mind has been, not good.
I haven't been firing on all cylinders lately. To wit:
Friday night, at a fondue restaurant in Lake Tahoe
Me (boozily): "Now wait, how long did the waitress tell us to cook the beef cubes in the oil?"
Alison: "45 seconds."
Me: "And the bacon-wrapped dates?"
Alison: "10 seconds."
Me: "What about the bread? How long do we have to cook it in the cheese?"
Alison: "Umm..."
(Awkward pause.)
Me: "Oh. Right."
Sunday night
Me: "This is DISGUSTING. How can anybody eat this??"
Randy: "What did you expect? It's a microwave macaroni and soy cheese frozen dinner, for God's sake."
Me: "Good point."

Was that microwaved soy cheese macaroni an Amy's product? If so, I too have fallen victim. I can't remember what I wound up adding to it, but it was no use. Blech. Blech to the max.
Indeed it was Amy's. Why would Amy put her name on such a vile foodstuff? I added lots of salt and pepper to no avail. Never again.
Cindy, I'm VERY concerned. You're eating microwavable soy cheese products? In San Francisco??? Call us immediately. We will cook you and Randy something un-soy-based.
I know, how shameful. I have a weakness for trying strange hippie frozen food items. I have a package of vegetarian kielbasa in my fridge as I write this. (Shudder). Hellllllp!!
Vegetarian..... soy...... microwave. Uh, .... vegetarian... kielbasa. OK, that's it!! You went to which cooking school? In Paris was it? PARIS! I've been to Paris. We went to the Shell station, late at night, really late. We got Prosciutto and brie! Real Brie!
Vegetarian, soy, microwave, kielbasa.
I, I just don't know what to say...
Andy ate one of those frozen Amy's things when we were stuck in a motel room in Fort Bragg late one night and nothing was open but the Safeway. That stuff is SAD. (To be fair, it's not just Amy's stuff that is sad. The frozen Moosewood crap was equally lousy.)
Eric - Sometimes a girl gets tired and lazy and loses her sense of right and wrong and has existential despair and has recently gotten back from a tiring weekend of snowboarding and just.wants.to.stuff.her.maw.
But I suppose you're right...it's pretty inexcusable. I'll let you know how the kielbasa goes.
Mrs D - Moosewood makes frozen entrees? Ooooh! Tell me more!!!
I don't think you've lost your mind...but have you lost your camera? I miss your photos girl! Hope all is well;)
