Tonight is White Trash Night at la casa de mfb.

My parents never let me have all the amazing food that everybody else got, growing up. They were all "healthy this" and "vegetables that". To spite them, I make appallingly unhealthy things like caramel applesauce pie (which is fucking amazing). You can tell it's not my natural mode of food preparation, though, because I get all gourmet and shit with it.

Tonight I make chili con 'tatoes. It's like chili con queso, but you pour it over tater tots. At least, that's the traditional version. I fried up some ground chuck, spiced it with cumin, paprika, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, and sauteed some chopped onion and green and red peppers. I melted it all in a brick of Velveeta in the microwave, topped the tater tots with it, and then topped that with sour cream. Then I shouted "gourmet" over it.

My arteries have literally ripped themselves out of my skin and are attempting to strangle me as I type this. Literally (fuck you it's white trash night) they are doing that. They best settle or I'm gonna dip 'em in the leftover queso for a midnight snack.
