So we are doing Blue Apron
And it’s pretty fantastic.
I don’t know why I’m telling you this.You probably already know.
Our first meal was of course
Something very easy.
Salmon…or was it tilapia?
It was salmon
And quinoa salad
Now if you are unfamiliar
With the quinoa …
Quinoa
Is like …essentially …
Coffee
But worse.
It just gets all over everything
It’s small
And it’s healthy
And grainy
So if you are ever hungry
And want to eat an entire harvest of a thing
Go get quinoa
It’s also surprisingly difficult to deal with
Surprising because it doesn’t do anything
It just sits there
Being itself
It’s not alive
It’s not in a shell
Like lobster
All you are required to do
Is be sanitary with it
wash it
And boil it
However
we really had no idea how to strain it.
Because it’s so small.
And I thought cheese cloth would be a great idea.
If we had cheese cloth.
So finally
I decided
To just use a coffee filter
Because it strains coffee
And quinoa is a lot like coffee
Only healthier I’m sure.
Although it can’t make me get out of bed in the morning. I’ll tell you that.
In the end
Blue apron is great
It comes in boxes
And it’s like Christmas
But in a very caveman way
Because it’s food
And quinoa salad is swell
And delicious
But a pain to have to handle
But probably not as bad as squid.
Because if they ever send a box with squid I just don’t think I could handle that.
