Do you think it’s weird to eat oatmeal for dinner?
I don’t…at least not when the day is dark, muggy, and wet, you forgot your umbrella on the way to work, and your dermatologist has told you that if you need to get rid of a few pimples, she can hook you up with a special formula that the pharmacy mixes up just for her, made from a drug that is usually used to treat leprosy. Yes, folks, say hello to your friendly neighborhood leper! But wait! Don’t run away just yet!
I realize that leprosy is probably not the best topic for a food blog, but still…it’s rather amazing what sort of new uses are discovered in old remedies. Maybe this stuff will soon be the new sensation. All medical speculation aside, though, what I really meant to say is that it’s just the sort of rainy day for comfort foods, warm blankets, and silly 80s movies. Let’s just call it a teeny, self-imposed quarantine.
*Please note that I do not actually have leprosy. Thank you.
