So, last night while Cynra was off at the CoRo show (thankfully not getting molested by Adam Busch's eyes; we know your tricks, Warren!), YHB took the opportunity to head to visit [livejournal.com profile] ketronic for some massage therapy (no, really; she's an RMT). On the way home I decided against any of the standard dinner options (KFC on a Tuesday is suicide because of their Twonie Tuesday promotion), and instead headed out to give Much Burrito a try.

Btw, when did Burritos become the new fast food of choice in the 'Saug? There's Chorizo's and now the MB franchise, but you still can't find a good takeaway curry. Their website is well put together. They have a mailing list, a good menu list, and are apparently even will have nutritional information, and it's very simple and pleasing to the eye.

Anyway, I decided to indulge in the Much Burrito. Oh, man, what a foolish move on my part. I need to realize that, as I age, my capacity to eat things larger than my head (which, as [livejournal.com profile] twillitts will happily tell you, is huge) has diminished. This was a big burrito. No, seriously. HUGE. When he put it down I thought "This is a fairly large tortilla". Then he ladled on the rice, and the peppers, and the meat, and the fear began to fall on my face. I almost said "no, that's enough guacamole" at one point. Almost.

I lugged Burritozilla home, fed los gatos, and popped open my diet Dr. Pepper, and dug in. It was a fight, let me tell you. I actually had to stop and rest between segments. I watched the Simpons Treehouse of Mediocrity DCLXVI. Man, you'd think it wouldn't be that hard to do a good halloween episode, but you'd be wrong. The War of the Worlds bit (a year late, a dollar short) was enjoyable (viva LaMarche!), but Homer as Blob was not (oh, yay, Dr. Phil.), and I can't remember what the middle one was. Wikipedia reminds me that it was a story of the Golem. See? Twelve hours later, and it's gone from my mind.
Anyway, I spent time waiting for Cynra to get back playing Sim City 4. Still hate how they do bus transit (You'd think [livejournal.com profile] gurudata worked on it). I've never been on a bus that required me to walk to a bus staition and that would only drive to another bus station. That and their 1970s understanding of incineration is annoying. Otherwise? Addictive.

Guess I won't bother with the Treehouse of Suckocity episode I recorded and never watched, then. Good looking out, man.

Rice, but no beans? *tsks* Moes Southwest Grill (http://www.moes.com/) has a pretty monstrous burrito called a "homewrecker" that is to die for. I once (and only once) ate two of them, to my then gf's surprise.

Oh, good. I was afraid it was some Canucovite way of doing burritos.

*whew*

(and yay for the black beans)

Blame the burrito trend on Burrito Boyz, downtown and raved about by all and sundry. It's the Thing to Eat. I went there once. Wait was long, service was slow, burrito was boring and overpriced. Meh.

You know you don't have to eat the whole burrito, right?

Dude, LaMarche as in Maurice? Are you telling me that The Brain was on The Simpsons? I haven't watched The Simpsons in many years, but I'd watch it for that...

Burritos are good! They're portable, and you can put a lot of food (even fresh healthy food) into a relatively small package. And they're more filling and less like rabbit food than your average wrap.

I think I'll get burrito stuff next week for dinner.

Funny..we just recently got ourselves a nice little Indian take out place right down the street from us. They have a little grocery section and they even sell Bollywood movies there! Woot! Hubby is loving it 100%.
