I have often thought what Deep Thought Man is pondering.

INGREDIENTS
2 oblea wafers or other 6″ wafers
3 tablespoons each of one or more of the following fillings:
caramel sauce (If you can get the authentic Colombian caramel sauce, arequipe, go for it.)
condensed milk
chocolate sprinkles
chopped pineapple
cream cheese
grated cheese
grated coconut
jam
Serves 1. Takes 3 minutes.
The top wafer shows the filling in the sandwich.
PREPARATION
Spread 3 tablespoons of fillings over first oblea. Put second oblea on top of fillings..
TIDBITS
1) Obleas is the plural form of oblea. Oblea is a Spanish word.
2) The English language is also rich with plural nouns.
3) Popular plural nouns of the English language include: women, ants, hamburgers, and doors.
4) So you can see that English speakers needn’t feel inferior to their Spanish counterparts on this linguistic matter.
5) According to culinary linguists, the word “oblea” has a rich and fabricated history.
6) For in mid 1968, the BeatlesTM traveled to India seeking enlightenment. They did not find it.
7) Disappointed, The Fab Four traveled to Colombia seeking solace in a simple, yet tasty dessert.
8) They found it in the form of Juan Cabrera’s simple oblea sandwich.
9) Such a fabulous dessert was worthy of a song, and soon the gifted Beatles came up with “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da.”

I really thought Mr. Hendrix sang the following lyrics. Changed the song more than a bit.

INGREDIENTS
2 avocados
1¼ cups heavy cream
1 garlic clove
1 small onion
1 tablespoon butter
3¼ cups chicken stock
2½ teaspoons lime juice
¼ teaspoon cumin
¼ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup fresh cilantro
SPECIAL UTENSIL
food processor
Serves 6. Takes 35 minutes.
PREPARATION
Peel and seed avocados. Add avocados and heavy cream to food processor. Blend until pureed. Mince garlic and onion. Add garlic, onion and butter to pot. Sauté at medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until onion softens. Stir frequently.
Add pureed avocado, chicken stock, lime juice, cumin, pepper, and salt to pot. Bring to boil using high heat. Stir frequently. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes or until soup is smooth. Stir frequently.
Dice cilantro. Garnish soup with cilantro.
TIDBITS
1) H20 comes in three forms: steam, water, and ice. So does avocado soup. Everybody loves avocado soup. Not so much with avocado ice. In fact, putting avocado-soup cubes in guests’ whiskey or root beer riles them quite a bit. Avocado PR firms are toying with the idea of spraying avocado-soup mists outside the entrance to restaurants serving this dish.
2) Everything comes in three states. For example nearly all, I think, buildings are solid. It is good to live in a solid building. Not so much for a liquid building. However a gaseous building is easy to move. Just heat up your building until it becomes a gas and let the wind blow it to its newly desired location. Now a problem arises. As of now, it’s not possible to freeze the building back to its original shape. You will get a solid building splat. Our dreams outpace our technology.

The world out there is crazy. It can be depressing. You need to soar above it all, if only in your mind. You need to daydream that you can fly.
There you go, up among the clouds

TIDBITS
1) In 1688, England underwent . . .. Belgian waffles! Belgian waffles are so tasty! I’d go to prison if it served its inmates Belgian waffles for every breakfast. Belgian waffles, yay, yay, yay.
