This video is doubly appropriate.
CAKE's "Love You Madly". (YouTube link if you do not see the below embedded video.)
Next Saturday I will be the emcee for a cooking competition that a dear friend is hosting. A cooking competition in a style very similar to the show "Chopped". In fact, the event is called "Chopped Sooieee!" (There's an Arkansas Razorbacks reference in there, I think. 
)
This competition should be interesting, at least as far as me emceeing it.
Because I know absolutely nothing about cooking. Nada. Zed. Except that I can burn a hot dog in a microwave if I cook it for longer than 33 seconds. And that I like my ice cream melted. But from what I'm told, neither of those is really cooking.
I have been trying to watch some of these cooking shows to pick up some helpful emceeing skills, but the content available online has been a little... lacking. So in the spirit of Indiana Jones, I'll be making this up as I go.
Luckily, I hear alcohol will be freely available.
Did I mention I have a huge fear of ANY public speaking? Ginormous! Like everyone is wearing their clothes and I am the one in my underwear kind of fear. I better remember to wear underwear for this.
Again, I hear alcohol will be freely available.
So why am I emceeing this, you ask? I'm doing it because a friend asked me to. And what are friends for, after all?
And there will be alcohol.
Then the Thursday after that I will be going with dear friends to see CAKE in concert. Because I've always liked CAKE. And John McCrea is a hottie (he's on the right in this picture):
It should be a fun time.
And there will be alcohol.
Until next time...
