it smells

See this box.
It looks harmless - but it's not

Words can't express to you my loathing for
Zatarains Jumbalaya


At least once a week my husband subjects me to the stink of
Zatarains Jumbalaya
He just LOVES it AND he thinks it smells good
(sick bastard)

It REEKS - The entire house stinks when he makes it
The smell sticks to your clothes
It doesnt go away for at least 2 days

I open all of the windows, I light candles
useless!!!

My house smells like a back alley behind
a dumpster from a soup kitchen
deep in the bowels of New Orleans

It makes my stomach churn...
I lose my appetite when he makes it

One night I had left a "just washed" sweatshirt
on a chair in the room next to the kitchen
he made this crap for dinner...
the next day I grab my sweatshirt
toss it in my truck and as I'm driving to work
I noticed this stench...
I look around puzzled - I grab my sweatshirt

WTF!!??
I can't wear this now - I'll smell like spicy rice!
The people at work will talk...!

I curse you New Orleans!!
I curse you and your stupid fucking spicy rice!!

I've never had this stuff, but you make it sound so appealing I'm just dying to run to the store after I leave this comment and buy some.

I've missed the slack, Jen! Hopefully I'll have computers set up in my new place soon. I hope you haven't forgotten about me.

You're right Jen, that rice is absolutely awful smelling! It stinks in its own unique way and I just hate it. Yuck!! (I can't even walk up the rice aisle in the supermarket it stinks so much.)

Frankie & Johnny lie around looking sad when a neighbor at the far end of the hall makes it. They actually begin to look suicidal. Poor babies!

Jen said...

Amy- How could I forget you??
I miss your comments!
Set up your computers - hurry
go.. now... what are you waiting for Go!

Zed - hilarious hahaha
poor Frankie & Johnny
I feel their pain!
When are you gonna post a pic of
Frankie & Johnny??? I'm waiting.

BOTH OF YOU ARE
MAKING THE SLACK WAIT!

Teri said...

Yes, don't make the SLACK wait ladies, it could get ugly.

can I say that I like this stuff and I've never noticed a "fowl" odor. maybe I'm deranged?

Jen said...

Teri - You're like Tim
You think it smells good..

You're both deranged
LOL

Zed said...

Okay, okay. Frankie's been complaining about the very same thing lately.

If I can get the scanner to work, I'll post F&J pictures on my blog. Check back later or tomorrow.

Oh. And Teri re: the rice. Yes. You. Are. Deranged.

Do what I do when my husband makes beer. I make him brew it outside.

That stinks too!

Sadly, I'm all TOO familiar with back alleys behind dumpsters from soup kitchens deep in the bowels of New Orleans, Louisiana. I always did drink too much at Mardi Gras.

I feel your pain with the beer.
My husband does that too

Mel said...

I dont buy that stuff because it looks nasty to me, but I know Hubby would love it. Ick. Hehe I am laughing at your description of the smell though!!

EJL said...

isn't that the rice that you have to add stuff to it..?

I don't like stinky box rice, too much sodium!
