Merry Christmas early, everyone!!! We are getting ready for a great holiday, so I thought I would give you all a treat this week. I know how much everyone likes my husband Tom’s reactions to the first bite of the Mid-Century Menu, so I thought I would put together a best of Tom post as a present for all you loyal readers.
So….drum roll please…
I present to you, The Best of Tom.
(The Best of Tom is best when veiwed with “I Would Do Anything For Love” by Meatloaf playing in the background)
Enjoying Meat-Crusted Corn Pie
Eating Divinity Fudge and Potato Candy
Wolfing down Spamcakes
Munching on Hawaiian Frankabobs.
Struggling to eat Sky High Braunschweiger Towers.
Loving Grapelade Cake.
Gagging on Jellied Stuffed Eggs.
Puzzled over Stuffed Eggs on Rice.
Choking down Pineapple Hamettes.
Puzzled over Chevron Rice Bake.
Angry at the Noodle Ring with Creamed Chicken.
And last, but not least…
Dressing up as some sort of…spaceman to cover some tile in our laundry room.
Love you, hon, and thanks for being such a good sport! We all appreciate you being the brave one, and trying the first bites for love and for the Mid-Century Menu.
He’s too cute – you both are!!
LOL! Those were great shots, Ruth! Yeah, thanks Tom for making “faces” at the food!!!!!!
Tom really is such a great sport, isn’t he? My husband definitely wouldn’t eat some of those more unusual mid-century meals, and he even loves food. Tom, you rock! I’m off to make some rather traditional cookies…
P.S. Wishing you guys a very happy holiday season
Are we voting? The “noodle ring” shot is by far my favorite Tom reaction!
He looks like he’s considering whether “attempted poisoning” would be sufficient grounds for divorce.
What a guy! Tom is the best! This post is also a great showcase for your wonderful Fiestaware! Each meal is served on a different color plate!
Merry Christmas, all!!
I was hoping you’d do something like this. lol. Your husband is such a good sport and his expressions are priceless!
Love your blog and Merry Christmas!
LOL! These all really were great shots! I second the noodle ring pic vote.
Hooray for Tom pics!
wow your husband sure is a good sport trying all those vintage meals, makes you wonder how people back then looked forward to their dinners.
Love the Tom pics! I so look forward to the recipes and pictures of Tom taking the first bite!!
A salute to brave husbands! They trespass in the lands of egg sauces and gelatin where others fear to tread.
