Braised Dick

[dalthauser]

This morning, after I'd just woken up, I was reading from Saveur magazine waiting for coffee to brew. 

Browsing the pages my curiosity went into overtime at a recipe titled "Braised Dick" - I put my reading glasses on and looked again....

"Braised Duck" - I cracked up laughing right there in the livingroom all by myself.  Made my day, and it didn't cost a dime :-)

I love when I misread things sometimes. Like the new tanning salon that opened up in town. I thought "boy, they believe in truth in advertising" as I read their name to be "Cancer Tropics" ... it really is "Cancun Tropics".

I drove by a storefront in Corpus Christi called "The House of Pain" - naturally (due to my dark nature) I was imagining leather, masks, and whips. Come to find out it's just a Chriopractors office. (darn!) ;-)

You should look up the recipe for Spotted Dick.

Dick may be a contraction/corruption of the word pudding (from the last syllable) or possibly a corruption of the word dough. Another explanation offered for the latter half of the name is that it comes from the German word for "thick."

Down here we have cock soup. It comes in a yellow package with a picture of a chicken on it.
