The Full Monty Python – Spam Egg Sausage and Spam Sandwich Recipe

Jerry — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 14:55:35 +0000

If there’s one thing that makes this particular venue stand apart from all the others like it, it’s that I have always pushed the idea that food should be fun. Honestly, what’s the point in slaving over a hot stove in a hot kitchen if you aren’t having any fun doing it? Just once this week, this month or this year, walk into the kitchen and make something that’s just FUN! It doesn’t have to be good for you, it doesn’t have to be worthy of a setting on the table of a fine dining restaurant, but it should make you smile. That’s what this particular “recipe” is all about.

At moments like these inspiration can, and should, come from anything that puts a smile on your face. In my case, it was a few minutes wasted on YouTube watching the iconic antics of John Cleese, Graham Chapman and the rest of the cast of Monty Python’s Flying Circus. In particular, the SPAM skit:

In the end, I settled on using SPAM Egg Sausage and SPAM, because it’s “…Not got much SPAM in it.” (Certainly not as much SPAM as SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM eggs and SPAM.) Initially I was going to simply serve it up as a breakfast plate, but I had a strong desire for some good rye bread, so the Full Monty Python Sandwich became the result of the evening.

Not healthy. Not terribly gourmet. possibly enough to make my cardiologist have a few nightmares, but it was fun to make, fun to eat and just the thought of it still has me smiling.

Go ahead. Have some fun in the kitchen. Even if the results are awful, you’ll be laughing about it and that’s what the entire adventure is about.

Little Gordon

Not everyone loves Gordon Ramsay but his image definitely precedes him. So much so that even kids have gotten in on the act. I found this video early this morning and thought it might help to give someone else a chuckle. It did me.

OK, This is just funny!

This is a true story sent to my wife. It was so hilarious I just had to pass it along!

*PREGNANT TURKEY STORY *

One year at Thanksgiving, my mom went to my sister’s
house for the traditional feast. Knowing how gullible my
sister is, my mom decided to play a trick.

She told my sister that she needed something from the
store. When my sister left, my mom took the turkey out of
the oven. She removed the stuffing, stuffed a Cornish hen,
inserted it … [visit site to read more]

The Dangers of bread, and why it should be regulated.

Jerry — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 23:36:06 +0000

Bread Is Dangerous

More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.

Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.

In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever, and influenza … [visit site to read more]
