He doesn't like rice - period. <BR/><BR/>Neither does my dad, which is probably where Tom gets some of his quirks.<BR/><BR/>Interestingly, they say girls marry guys like their dad. Apparently I did - a Busch Light-drinking, car-loving who complains about rice.Kit Pollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18325742818502163891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472222.post-45888005497398004272008-01-17T11:11:00.000-05:002008-01-17T11:11:00.000-05:00I don't really like fruit in my dinners in general...I don't really like fruit in my dinners in general-- I pretty much believe that oranges belong in juice and peels, and that's it, although I can handle them in some salads. (Just not the mandarin kind of slimy pieces.) Other than that, I'm not picky, really-- no bananas, no peas, no cooked carrots and no innards (although I like sweetbreads).<BR/><BR/>Cooking for someone else who has a defined epicurean sensibility (or just a lot of dislikes) is difficult. For example, if I had my way, I'd cook something involving risotto or orzo at least once a week, but some people think that those two starches are "side dishes" no matter how much other stuff they have in/on them.Cailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03624288431475600439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472222.post-20969086374225495602008-01-15T16:59:00.000-05:002008-01-15T16:59:00.000-05:00Yeah, but isn't that, like, the only kind of fruit...Yeah, but isn't that, like, the only kind of fruit in salad you like? Cooper likes that, too, but studiously avoids blueberries or blackberries or pretty much anything else. <BR/><BR/>I just want somebody to appreciate my Boston lettuce/chevre/black pepper/watermelon combination.Kit Pollardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18325742818502163891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472222.post-12211749524233520202008-01-15T16:19:00.000-05:002008-01-15T16:19:00.000-05:00i like fruit in salads kit. especially the kind wi...i like fruit in salads kit. especially the kind with strawberries and walnuts.Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08037200083933456060noreply@blogger.com
