I think I watch too much contest TV.
I had a rather bizarre dream last night where I was a contestant on “America’s Next Top Chef Designer”.
Granted I’m still a bit sick and slightly feverish, but this was still unusual.
First, I had to prepare a vegetarian meal. For it I relied heavily on Indian influences, but in the end did a “deconstructed” veggie burger with a bun made from polenta, garlic, and hummous. A slab of roasted eggplant, tomato, pickled mango chutney, with a tumeric aioli.
Then we had to do art for a gallery opening. I dashed off two sepia tone ink shadow drawings of Padma (on cardboard), but was focusing all my time on a still-life featuring grey oranges in a bowl. I think the title was “Bowl of Greys”.
I was also working on a couture gown for a runway show that was going to be made almost entirely out of mother-of-pearl snap pockets from “country” shirts. It was not going well because I was having issues with the massive collar.
Mostly I remember running around the workspace, flitting between projects, and never being able to stay focused enough to finish any.
I woke up very tired and frustrated.
Mangina Monologues 
LOL. Love it! Maybe tonight you’ll finish the dream and you can find out if you won or not!
Haha, polenta buns might be too heavy. Next time fried up some falafel for buns instead.
Did you win on any of them? LMAO!!!
🙂 You didn’t have to remodel the house too?
You seriously need to get laid, bro.
Giggle – and people laugh at me because I own a sewing machine and every kitchen gadget known to man.
I’ve never had a dream of being on a game show, although I did dream about cooking for Aarón Sanchez one time. Must be the Latino thing.
Maybe you should trade in the ‘reality’ TV shows for a movie or two.
Hope you’re feeling better.
