Wine and cheese.

That is the extent of the food preparation that I can handle tonight. I don't know why; usually I'm pretty awesome with food. Tonight I made eggs on toast with neufchatel, one of my favorites. It was boring. Then I made a salad but I had to start a new bottle of dressing. The dressing wasn't good. Then I tried my new espresso machine for the first time. I'm sure it was mostly due to the fact that it was my first time ever making an espresso anything, but my mocha latte sucked. I drink like 8 espresso drinks a day, I've seen people do it enough. But no dice. Tomorrow: less espresso, more milk, less chocolate, more talent. 

Finally, something kind of worked. It was toasted garlic demi baguette with affinois cheese (kind of like brie with herbs...but not the stony herbs that would have made this particular combination taste better). I had this with Little Black Dress merlot. It was...not as bad as everything else I prepared tonight. But it was off. Maybe I should have gone with the beaujolais nouveau, to match the French with the French. Or maybe I need the rosemary and olive oil demi baguette that Hannaford so rudely had none of last night. Or. Maybe I'm having the kind of day where everything tastes bad. It's possible; I'm in quite the mood.

Either way, I am confident in the fact that after scouring the supermarkets tomorrow for my good salad dressing, going with a healthy dish of Thai or Chinese food for dinner, maybe starting my running routine, and sleeping off my current outlook, things will taste much better.
