Can't say I'm not open-minded...

My friend at work can cook. Really well. She brings in some of the yummiest stuff. She submitted a dish she had never made before (jambalaya) for an international cuisine luncheon at work today. She asked me to help her carry some stuff to the place where it was held. I brought it over with her and I got a sneak peek at the dishes being served. It was a buffet of food from all over, though there were many many African  and West Asian dishes. Everything looked so good so we decided to split on a ticket. We were looking forward to trying all this exotic food and vowed to at least attempt to get something from every dish, pick away at it and expand our horizons.

Well!

I guess I had good intentions...I tried absolutely everything on my plate and I had at least 10 countries on there...took a bite, put the rest to the side...I think I was relieved when I dug into the jambalaya. Don't get me wrong, I can totally see why some people love "ethnic" food, I do to some extent but it really wasn't for me. But I am glad I tried.

In other news...

I have high hopes for other things on my agenda...I think I need a little luck.
