Best thing I can imagine

[kinra]

Remember the strong bad clip where he figures his imagination's broke 'cause the best thing he can imagine is "beef... stew"?

My meal at M+B Yummy tonight reveals that he was not so much unimaginative as he was prescient; connected, in a Childhood's End kind of way, to a future that had not yet been clear to him.

I ate the special tonight, a vegan beef and pumpkin tibs-stew, along with vegan lasagna and salad, accompanied by the habitual sublime injera.

It also came with a cupcake.

It transported me out of my day, out of my body. It made me realize that food can, indeed, make one truly happy and that one should not accept less from their meals. It opened my eyes and my heart for a time, and lifted me into a state of contented celebration of who I was, what I was eating, and how I was able to experience it.

It was ridiculously delicious.

I am very happy.

Oh god I just typed out this long whimsical comment about my awful food experience today to combat your happy one, but I figured your Livejournal friends would think I'm a giant bitch.

SO INSTEAD I AM GLAD YOU ARE HAPPY.

Its always wonderful to find delicious food, but I have to ask what, exactly, is "vegan beef"?
