Is She Pregnant?

Lord help me. Now, I have been known to make an interesting concoction or two in the kitchen from time to time. But I like to think what I make, however weird some of the combinations, at least have some semblance of "normal." Yes. I put the word normal in quotes intentionally. My wife made a snack of waffles. Oh, but wait. It gets better. She slathered garlic aioli on those waffles. Not grossed out yet? She then put AVOCADO on her garlic aioli waffles. Are you KIDDING me? I KNOW she's not pregnant. She can't be. Age and menopause and all. But really. Why on Earth ELSE would she eat a concoction like this? Perhaps she has been with me too long. WAY too long. This is alien food. Even the cats were like, "Nope. All yours." @NJChicaa, if you don't puke face this, Imma slap you. Don't you DARE stick up for her.

I hate to break the news to ya but even after menopause a woman could become pregnant although it isn't common

@rebelann Great. I will see if I can make sure they have ramps for my scooter for a future high school graduation ceremony. Ugh.

I can see bleu cheese in eggs. I have used feta before and it has a similar consistency. I wouldn't say I particularly liked it. But it doesn't sound "odd" to me. Really, even with this concoction, she really lost me at the waffle. The combination of garlic aioli and avocado doesn't strike me as particularly weird. lol

To me, blue cheese and eggs go well together. I'd definitely eat that.

Because she felt like having that's no different than toast or bagel just a different amount of flour. If she likes it who cares. It was her yum. I've watched my 9-year-old dip french fries into oatmeal.

@porwest nah! I like my waffles which are just chocolate chips or cinnamon. But it was hard of a jump for me to make the correlation between the foods.

@ShyBear88 I suppose on the bright side they were just plain waffles. Sometimes she has blueberry ones in the freezer and I think that with the other combination certainly would have been much worse. Or maybe not. Who knows? lol

That's exactly what she told me. Are you and her in cahoots? lol

@porwest I am not tempted to try it, but it's not the weirdest food I have seen. Should she used peanut butter instead of garlic aioli I would have considered more disgusting.

@porwest Maybe she was in the mood for all that and she wanted to have it. When you say the cats are you referring to Grayson and Cal?

@porwest So, I take it Cal still comes home with you and so glad they have each other. If I got my cat when she was older and learned manners then I would search harder for a playmate for her. Now, she just has me.

Like @ShyBear88 kinda said, the wife told me it was just like having avocado toast or an avocado bagel, just with a waffle instead. I guess it works. lol

I don't understand the problem - or are waffles meant to have sweet stuff on them?

Waffles in and of themselves are a bit sweet so this would be a sweet and savory snack. Amazingly, less people were disgusted by this than I thought would be and many people said they would like to try it. The more I think about it now after the fact, maybe this isn't as weird as I thought it was. lol

Sounds pretty good to me. Waffles are just like bread, a vehicle for many tasty items.

That sounds like the only logical explanation. Or temporary insanity. Maybe she thought the waffle was wheat bread. Maybe you can oh so politely suggest wheat bread instead of waffles.

Didn't you ask her for a bite out of curiosity? Sweet and savoury can sometimes work well and it's not the weirdest combination I've seen. (I'm British, banana sandwiches are a thing).

You have a point. I DO like sweet and savory. Although when I saw this I was like, WHAT??? I guess the more I think about it, the less weird the idea of it becomes.

I could *almost* see just the avocado since it does have a buttery texture and mouthfeel. She lost me at the garlic aoili though. Hell to the NO.

From the Holy Book of Kitchen Rules: "If thou maketh non-complementary concoctions, thou shalt be denied compliments". See, even the cats understand this rule. Perhaps she was exploring a novel way to clean out the fridge, but I would still hesitate to enter her for a cooking competition though.
