Me: Claudia, we are special ordering your menu. What would you like the main entree to be?
Claudia: Filet Mignon
Me: Ok... I thought we were doing the Mediterranean thing.
Claudia: Yes, but we need two options. Not everybody is going to eat Mediterranean. Sooooo we can special order Filet Mignon AND grilled Mediterranean fish with aged sherry-vinegar-tarragon vinaigrette.
Me: Huh? Say whaaaaat? Says who????
Claudia: Bobby Flay
Me: (Deep sigh, moving my hands like I'm Italian)... and who is that?
Claudia: "Food Network Mom ... Food Network!"
Me: "Ok. I'll go grab a knife and you go get the fishing rod. While I kill the neighbor's cow, you can go to the lake and catch some fish! I'm on a budget here!!!"
