Oh Anthony

Every couple of months, we watch a bunch of Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations.

The problem we’re having is the same we had with watching The Sopranos for all those seasons – despite just having had dinner, we’re hungry all over again.

It varies, depending on where he’s traveling.  The episode in Jamaica?  Not so bad.  Last night’s episode in Provence?  Nearly killed us.

And we had just finished a big, whopping Easter dinner that I lovingly prepared throughout the afternoon: velvety celeriac soup, broiled lamb with savory and freshly ground Chinese 5-spices, new potatoes, carrots and green beans.

Sigh.  We snacked our way through the entire episode, though.

Damn you, Anthony!  Just kidding.  We love watching you.  And hey, we’re faring way better than we did during The Soprano years.  The amount of pasta we consumed?

You don’t want to know…
