A series of letters reflective of tonight's Cajun
Fettuccine Alfredo dinner;
Dear George Foreman Grilling Tool,
You are amazing. I don't know what I would do without
you. You are great for grilling, cleaning, and
basically an all purpose tool. You are awesome. But
you know it. You cocky bastard. Don't think I don't
see your smirk. I hate you. I hate that I can't live
without you. Stop staring at me with that
self-assured grin.
Sincerely,
Guy from Apartment 209
Dear Can of Green Beans,
I am so sorry I left you in the back of my cupboard
for over three months. Opening you tonight, I have
realized how much I have missed you. I am sorry I
never opened your earlier. I promise never to leave
any of your brother cans in the cupboard that long
again.
You were a wise and tasty, if not out of place,
vegetable to have with dinner tonight.
Sincerely,
A Green Bean Fan
Dear $5 jar of cracked pepper alfredo
sauce,
I picked you up by accident at the store Saturday. I
swore you were on sale for $2.50. That was the jar
next to you. You were in the absolute wrong spot on
the shelf. I am pretty sure someone picked you up,
saw that the other jar was on sale and you were
actually a rather expensive jar of sauce, set you
down and picked the one on sale. I, stupidly, picked
you up without looking at the brand on the tag,
thinking the price reflected was you. You are not
worth five dollars. You are not fantastic alfredo
sauce, in fact you are kind of bland. I did not taste
any cracked pepper.
Next time I see your brother jars in the store I am
going to "accidently" drop one of them on the ground
out of vindictive spite.
Sincerely,
Disappointed with Alfredo
