If Antonio Banderas is a Burrito Paul Newman was a Hotdog
When I was in college I slept with Paul Newman. I shared a one bedroom apartment with two other “women” (I thought I was a W-O-M-A-N ala Helen Reddy). We furnished the bedroom with $5 (it was in the 60’s) mattresses from Goodwill – no frames, no box springs, just sanitized -(I think) formerly-used mattresses on the floor. Wall-to-wall mattresses – there was barely room to walk between them. A gigantic floor to ceiling poster of Paul Newman informed our dreams and was our homage to decor.
In my middle years George Clooney (Hooked on haiku & George Clooney) took Paul’s place. But now George is off the market (You Mean I Could Have George Clooney’s Baby) and I’m hard pressed to find anyone as tasty.
After I watched this short video “How to Live Passionately NO Matter Your Age” I realized I’d better get cook’n . . . again!
You have to listen all the way to the end for the “burrito” recipe.
