Oh gosh, in 6th grade we were supposed to dress up as someone from Greek Mythology for the unit we were doing in school, and I was Artemis in a 1970s tunic-dress of my mother’s with a bow made out of a bunch of old venetian blind slats my father tied in a bunch for strength & strung with some bright color of plastic twine. Not worst, but definitely a Thing.

Hands down worst costume, I give you: Crash Test Dummies.
Little me and my older brother, and I’m astounded he went along with it. I don’t know whose idea it was, but it certainly wasn’t mine. Perhaps in the 90s it wasn’t terrible, but looking back we seem a certain kind of horrifying.
In other news, I got a box from @Bunny1kenobi! I’m trying not to make eye contact with it while I keep crafting away!

Shipping is in 12 days! The remainder of this weekend and next + a few days!
Check in question for the week: what is a strange or creepy food combination the doesn’t sound appetizing, but really is?
Mine is lumpy mashed potatoes and soy sauce. Not too much! Just enough…
Looks utterly disgusting, but nom, nom, nom. What about you?

I grew up dipping my grilled cheese sandwich in ketchup. As I’ve gotten older I’ve discovered (as has my sister) that that is far less common than we’ve been led to believe. lol

We always used to eat them with curry ketchup! Even cheese cubes at parties were served with curry ketchup.

It’s very common in my corner of Europe but I don’t think I’ve seen it elsewhere. We buy it bottled usually but making it from scratch is on my to-do list, this is the recipe I’ve saved: https://www.thekitchenmaus.com/quick-curry-ketchup/
I grew up eating curry ketchup so when I try plain ketchup I always have the feeling something is missing.
Today I’m just finishing up a few items that have been 99% done for weeks. I don’t know why I always put that off for so long. Then it’s time to think about wrapping!

I just realized tonight’s dinner is disgusting to some people. It was invented by an old roommate. He wanted to make burgers but he didn’t have burgers or burger buns. So you take a regular slice of bread, put mayonaise and (curry) ketchup on it, pickles, cheese, tomato, lettuce, whatever you have on hand, and then a fried egg on top. A lot of people hate the idea of mayo and ketchup with fried egg. He would make this dish when he was broke, I make it when I’m lazy.

That sounds good. I mean, there’s already egg in mayo 
… And, I have gotten ketchup on my egg before just because it’s been near my hashbrowns. lol

Weirdest thing I probably eat is cottage cheese and applesauce together. I don’t imagine thats too weird though, right?!
