Smoked Salmon on Pizza

Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of tasting the deliciousness that is 'Smoked Salmon Pizza'. As a result, it has landed on the highly sought after cyberspace that is "Things Liked By Me". Please note: The reason that I haven't been able to post a blog since the beginning of September, has little to do with my hectic schedule and knack for starting- but not finishing- projects, but rather because since the day my teeth sunk into that Salmony goodness, no words could sufficiently describe my experience. Until now. 

But before I continue, I would like to comment on how privileged I feel to be able to go to restaurants with my special someone, and choose theoretically revolting meals, for the two of us to share, potentially followed by a communal vomit. My experimentally open BF was not only a full supporter of my fishy selection, but also an active participant in the devouring of this delicacy. 

That's what she said. 

Anyways. Smoked Salmon Pizza. The successful union of Italian and Jew, not seen since the days of Sonny and Cher. For a moment, I feared that consuming the dish would impregnate me with a gender confused pizza-bagel, but my fear was quickly replaced by excitement. As the piping-hot pizza pie arrived at my table, my mouth salivated like one of Pavlov's little bitches.

Seeing that Eastern European Jewish delicacy disguised in a cloak of Italian deliciousness, brought back memories of Talmud Torah Elementary School lessons about Jews in the Old Country who had to practice the Torah in secrecy. 

The fishalicious topping was as close as I was going to get to a pepperoni pizza, so I grabbed a slice and took a bite.

MMMMMMMM. Can you taste it?

Now, I could go on to describe how yummy this felt in my tummy, but I think that this song does a much better job of expressing how I felt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wfYIMyS_dI&ob=av2n 

How could I have lived for so long without having experienced this miracle? 

Salmon, and goat cheese and caramelized onions, oh my!

AND CAPERS! I forgot to mention the capers. The salt infused green balls of heaven exploded in my mouth, in a symphonic orchestra of "Holy Shit That's Good!".

When the pizza ended, so too did my life, but now that I am no longer in mourning over the death of my meal, I feel like I can finally share with you all this life changing experience, and a greater understanding of Things Liked By Me. 

FYI: My out of body experience took place at Ferro on St.Clair West

Blogging

In an attempt to alleviate some of the distress I place on those in my close network of confidants by never shutting my mouth, I have decided to start a blog.

Yes, you heard me right. I am a blogger. I can feel my loins shrivel up as I type this, and my urge to learn more about Dungeons & Dragons peak. I joke. Did you know that blogging is no longer exclusive to social retards? Even my boyfriend has taken up blogging, and he is neither social nor... Anyways.

The point of this blog isn't to attack those whom I see as morally inferior to myself. In fact, I haven't really decided what the point of this blog is. Mostly because all the blog titles I had in mind were already taken. I had to scrap my original idea of "Things I Enjoy Finding In My Bellybutton" for that reason. Oh well, my first blog idea might have been stolen, but the things I've found in that little button of mine will remain in my drawer forever.

'Things Liked By Me', believe it or not, will serve primarily as a place for me to talk about all of the things liked by me. [As an aside, my second blog idea, "Things Licked By Me", was also taken]. So join me on an exciting adventure of all the wonderful things that I like. To clarify, it will be exciting in the way that some people like to watch paint dry, not in The Magic Schoolbus adventure type of way. But if you have low expectations and are borderline senile, this blog should be right up your alley (or wherever you want to shove it).

Now that I have alienated most of my potential fans, followers, and friends, to those remaining- thanks for reading!

exes and ohes,
