A Regrettable Tour Through My Photo Files (aka "a post you shouldn't read or write while hungry")

Lord knows why I even bother going through photos on my computer when I'm hungry, especially since I know the albums are rigged with images of various food items that I've consumed.

Some of these photos were initially taken for documentation...



...such as the lasagna experiment where I used bechamel sauce, meat, and zucchini slices instead of noodles...



...or the grilled cheese experiment with honey inside, three cheeses (double cream brie, Gouda, Gorgonzola) and three fruits (fresh fig, strawberry, pear)...



...that cooked to perfection (I need to do this again!).

Of course, many photos were taken during trips to show people back home...



...like these three types of smørrebrød (herring, liver/beets, pickles/cabbage?) in Denmark...



...a real Danish danish (also in Denmark)...



...a Sicilian cremestick in Cefalu'...



...and a Sicilian cassatella (like a mini-cassata).

Then there are the bragging photos.

These are the photos that I took with my phone and sent to friends and/or family, knowing full well that they couldn't enjoy the tasty delights before me (of course, now they only remain on my computer to torment me as well...karma's a bitch, I guess).

Included in this category of pics...



...are the delicious scallop tacos (with avocado, pineapple and cream sauce) at the place in Albuquerque, NM...



...the overly stacked BLT at Sunday's Plus in Amherst, Ohio...



...the delicious pimiento cheese cheeseburger at Hurst Discount Drug in Bardstown, KY...



...and the incredible creme-filled donut at Hadorn's (also in Bardstown).

And let's not forget the multitudes of photos I have of sushi...





...which show that I have an obvious problem.

And, finally, there are those pictures of foods you remember from your childhood that you wish were still around and then your uncle finds the tools necessary (in an antique store) for you to bring those memories back again...



...like this Easter lamb cake with zombie bunny jellies!

Thanks again, Uncle Dave!
