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.

  4. 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!

  6. 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?

  8. 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.

    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.
