this is how preoccupied with food I can be, or, meal planning in my sleep

[pantryslut]

You know the famous stories of people solving difficult problems in their sleep, like how the periodic table came to Mendeleyev in a dream?

Saturday, I had a dream. I was dreaming of fattoush (tomato salad with pita bread). "But that seems too light to serve as a meal in itself," I dreamed, just as I had been thinking when I was awake for a few days. "Oh! I know!" I answered myself, still in my dream. "I can serve it with fried potatoes with garlic and lemon. That will round it out."

And then I woke up.

(Guess what we're having for dinner tonight?)

I am convinced that I dreamed about roasting a spaghetti squash in the last few days.

It may have been a waking dream; not sure. But we really do have such a squash in our kitchen...
