After all the press about Ambien causing people to sleepwalk, sleepeat, sleepdrive, and do on, I was proud to report that all I'd ever really done under the influence was sleepbabble, sleepcomposesongsaboutgoats, and sleeptalkaboutHarryPotter. Oh, and I have a tendency to turn on the light so I can write down ideas that seem like utter genius at 3am but in the light of day turn out to be really boring (you should be glad (or rather, I'm really glad) that I don't try to sleepblog.) But! I wasn't gaining weight and I wasn't endangering nocturnal animals.
But last Saturday morning at 6:30am, about three hours after taking my sleeping pill, I got up, went to the kitchen, and made myself a rather involved snack. I had no memory of doing so until I found the recipe I had transcribed during the creation of this unique dish, which I will reprint here verbatim, straight from the index card that bears the unmistakable handwriting of Sleepy-Time Jer. All errors are sic, faithfully and embarrassingly reproduced. The tautologically superfluous first line is not a part of the recipe, but rather an optimistic exhortation to the housemates -- STJ is nothing if not generous: Eat while there is Sigh. First of all, I urge those of you now reaching for your boiling bowls and dragon sauce to reconsider. Even if you could decipher the shouty part of the instructions -- which you can't -- the result, while technically made of food products, falls well short of the minimal culinary goal of edibility. In terms of presentation, it suffers from a problem master chefs refer to as "looking like vomit." Second of all, [insert joke about having to reconsider my claim that I have not endangered nocturnal animals while on Ambien]. Finally, I'd like to offer an improved version of the recipe: --------------------------- 0 comments |
