Figs-new city, same predictable fluff

Before Richies surprise party in Philadelphia Thanksgiving weekend, wods, HILLARY richie and marissa went to his place. Sadly, Amanda and I were unable to attend,but heard it was very nice. When Wods told me he'd be reviewing this place, i thought, "o wow, a new city, maybe a new blog format or a more interesting blog.". Overall, the only time I was more wrong about anything was when i thought "gee, this JB girl is pretty cool, and normal". Honorable mention-"I can really show Mark 'the blinger' Heberling the right path by living with him junior year.". Needless to say, neither of those ventures went well,and neither did this blog. Here's why:

Bread with White Bean Dip: A pretty bland revieiw for a seemingly decent starter. I would have liked more than a sentence here. wods REALLY shoulda read that book report on tigers I wrote in third grade. and if you think I'm running the tiger book report joke into the ground, well, you're right.

Baked Brie Notes: Terrel Owens freaking out. Britney spears having a meltdown on national TV. Wods ordering Brie Cheese, meatballs, or spinach at one of his dinners. All things you can almost guarantee in life. How about a little variety, eh critic? You're supposed to recommend meals, not let us know which places in the world have the best brie cheese. Your reviews kind of remind me of "where in the world is carmen san diego?". I was hoping for something more like iron chef.

Spinach and co. triangles: Well, this really makes my point for me. I understand you like spinach josh. Theres like 45,000 other foods out there. Try something else. Or if you're going to eat spinach and meatballs everywhere you go, thats fine,but let us read something better. I don't make the same jokes each week (outisde of the tiger joke and your blogs being kinda wod). Give us some quality. Right now I feel like Bill Murray in groundhog day every time i read one of your blogs. I keep waiting for an alarm clock to go off blasting "I got you babe".

Crispy Duck Breat: Finally,a decent section. I think I've finally figured out wod's writing style. Odd attempts at humor, obsession over weird stuff, and the occasional flash of solid writing. After many attempts to liken him to a pop culture persona, I think I've nailed it. Wods writing is akin to the work of Steve Urkel. Think about it. Ridiculously corny jokes? Check. Weird obsessions with a topic no one cares about (science, or in wods case, food) Check. Ability to occasionally make you chuckle while thinking what the fuck? Check. There you have it. Wods=Steve Urkel. And if you're keeping score at home, reiko still equals Stefan Urkell. I'm not even going to review the last dish or give a score, I think this really sums it up.

One last thought-it was nice to see a fred blom joke thrown in there. For those who don't know, Fred, while probably the nicest guy you'll ever meet, can't seem to remember anyones name. He's mistaken me for my brother, Tennessee for Florida, and Chak for these 2 wod Brazilian twins who went to lo mo and his from their nanny in a dumpster after throwing a Halloween party senior year. Well, that's all I've got.

I hope the blog finds you and yours well,and your holiday season in enjoyable. In the holiday spirit I won't tell grade this blog, and I'll even tell you to support the critic as he finds his writing style. Also, look for me and Rofsky's blog, 1010 blogspot to drop shortly after the new year.

Happy Holidays!!!
