At lunch today (err, yesterday) we were trying to decide where to eat. Eric suggest Tacos Guaymas and although I am not a big fan of that particular restaurant, we hadn't been there for a while and so I agreed to go. As we walked down the hall, I starting reciting lines from an episode of Beavis & Butt-head. "Tacos...burritos...spaghetti". Erik latched on to the end and started talking about spaghetti burritos.
During Office Hours he still seemed obsessed with the concept of spaghetti burritos and asked just about everyone around what they thought should go into a spaghetti burrito. At first I dismissed this as silly, but after thinking about it for a while, I'm not so sure. Is spaghetti any worse a source of starch as the rice that you would find in a traditional burrito?
I may have to think about a good combination of ingredients and try to create a spaghetti burrito this weekend. I think I have the culinary skills necessary to boil a pot of water to cook the spaghetti. The hardest part, I think, would be clearing enough space around the range to keep the apartment from going up in flames when I turn on the gas.
In Kentucky they put spaghetti in chili. Go figure. . . .
