And I thought I couldn’t like him more…

by Cindy Crouch

Is there anything sexier than a man, just off a long loooonnnng motorcycle trip, that gets a cup of strong black coffee, followed up by a tattoo? This is what we saw on the season finale of Feasting on Asphalt.

abbike.jpgAlton Brown spent his second season with his crew on bikes of the highest quality, traveling the country finding good food, and better people. Award winning fiction writers could not create the characters he encounters on the back roads of our beautiful country… This season they traveled up the Mighty Mississippi, beginning at the southernmost point and making their way northward. While the first few episodes of the season, (to me at least) seemed repetitive, it was nonetheless interesting. Perhaps I just don’t really care for the whole cajun style of cooking, so encountering 3 episodes of crawfish heads and jambalaya, wasn’t really appealing to me. We finished strong in Minnesota though, where we encountered vikings and a real live smorgasbord. And if you’re wondering what the difference between a buffet and a smorgasbord is… well don’t ask me, I’m still not sure. It seems, that it perhaps has to have something hot, somethign cold and something pickled. Or maybe it just has to have a potato dish. Or maybe it just has to have a large variety of Scandanavian dishes. Or maybe all three of the above are true. All I know is it looks yummy!!! smorg.jpg

And just before they arrived at the mouth of the Mississippi, at Itasca Lake, AB hit Uptown Tattoo in beautiful Minneapolis, Mn. There he got a fantastic skull tattoo, with a knife an fork crossed through it, and a banner, proclaiming MMVII to commemorate the year of the trip. I have a note in to Uptown Tattoo right now to get a picture of that tattoo, and I hope to be able to put it up for you soon.

By the way, I have two favorite new blogs here at 451 Press!!! Read the most recent entries for Pushing Daisies, and the Hogwarts Herald!!!
