Before "Dexter" became a hit it was actually a novel (or two). I read the first
one, and was appalled. When the ads for this series came out, I was horrified! When Netflix ran it on "Watch it now" I was irrevocably hooked.
I was swept away by the music, the writing, the characters, strong women and non traditional casting. (Plus the Latin flare of Miami doesn't hurt, from my perspective). And now, Season 3's out on DVD.
What, besides buckets of popcorn, do you devour while watching this? Humbly, I recommend you dine before the marathon of Jimmy Smits and murder-infused episodes. Since we still can't fly direct to Havana, why not make it Cuban?
Tentative menu:
Cuba libres or mojitos, but perhaps a licuado would be more authentic
fricase de pollo
white rice.
Dessert?
Pick up something at Porto's.
What? You got a problem with serial killers?
I watch very little tv or dvd so I should recuse myself. But I do eat. So, I'd probably eat a whole pizza from your prior posting.
ReplyDeleteSeems a little gruesome from your humble canary in a coal mine. But I'm sure the mojitos would dull my normal squeamishness.
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched Dexter, mainly because the eyebrows really bother me. But with serial killing I'd definitely avoid anything in the stew category. Vegetables, raw, I think. Maybe a salad with a dry, light wine.
ReplyDeleteCP: Sounds good--
ReplyDeleteM: It is gruesome. I appall myself.
AH: A delightful recommendation--
Before I read the text I saw the images. A knife welding man dripping blood onto a pizza. Didn't bother me. I like Dexter.
ReplyDeleteI only saw a couple of episodes before we got rid of the TV. But I liked it. Can't remember what I ate. Probably potato chips.
ReplyDeleteNo problems with seria killers. And I think noone has problems with them. If you have them, they kill you. But if they kill you, no more problems! :D
ReplyDeleteNice menu Desiree. I'd like now a Mojito!!!
PA--Hmm, I gotta be more careful about product placement! I-always lookin' on the bright side of life, I tell ya,
ReplyDeleteP:Boasting again of your intellectually superior lifestyle? I'm going to have to medicate myself with a mindless hour of flipping through the channels, or butter!
Exactly. "Intellectually superior" is my new euphemism for "cutting expenses."
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THE BUS AD WHERE THE BABY HAS THE RED JUICE AND IT IS SPLATTERED EVERYWHERE HA HA HA.
