Last Supper?
Hi friends--I am in the process of writing a post that will make up for the last two weeks of silence. In the mean time, I have a question: If you could only eat one more meal, what would you ask for if you could have anything you wanted (limit 12 different items)? Your meal doesn't have to be limited to typical dinner food; you can have a little bit of everything you love. Why not humor me and list your 'last supper' request in the comment section of this post.
Here's my 'last supper' request:
Saag Paneer (Indian dish: spinach and farmer's cheese)
Chai tea (homemade from Shree Muktananda Ashram)
Kichari (from Shree Muktananda Ashram)
Dunkin Donuts coffee (half-n-half and 1/2 packet of sugar)
Lindt Dark Chocolate Truffles
Cascadian Farms granola w/plain yogurt and strawberries
Mango 1 peeled and sliced
Mandarin Orange seltzer with 1/4 part cranberry juice and a splash of lemon juice
Edie's Slow Churned Coffee ice cream (pint) with hot fudge
*#^*#^*#^*#^*#^*#^*#*#^*#^*#^*#^*#^*#^*#
If I could only have one item, I would choose the mango.
What about you? What would you eat if you knew you could only have one more meal while living it up here on Planet Earth?

If it was my last supper, I'd love to have only one thing: The Original Apple! ;)
Cheers!
What a good question! I'd start with Dom Perignon champagne and those dark chocolate truffles you spoke of. After that, I might not want anything else....LOL
Oh, yeah, I'd want more of the pistachio eclairs from Verseilles and ice cream (gelato) from Rome!
Lobster Cantonese for me please
or maybe bing cherry vanilla ice cream
or...
really depends on the situation and how hungry I am at the time.
I would have a large chocolate-chocolate chip milkshake.
I would also have deep fried ice cream smothered in chocolate sauce. My choice of ice cream would be either: mint chocolate chip, vanilla chocolate chip or chocolate chocolate chip.
I would also want a dark beer, like Guiness.
Years ago, someone told me that one of the great taste sensations was the combination of a dark beer with dark chocolate. At first I thought they were crazy. I tried it anyway. Now I'm a believer.
Since I'm diabetic, I would be guaranteed that the above would be my absolutely last dinner.
I would die with a smile on my face.
OH COME ON!!! A mango?????? Be honest....my last day I am having twinkees, ding dongs, double mint chocolate chip ice cream in a waffle cone, A full bag of Cheetos, Pizza Hut Supreme with Cheesy bites crust, Big Mac and a double vanilla Fribble with sprinkles and M&M's on top!!!
PRADEEK: Alas! My friend--I believe the eating of the original apple was the beginning of 'duality' and the field of 'opposites'. Don't do it!!! :)
KENJU: I posted this question after watching a documentary short about death row inmates in Texas. This documentary (a Docurama "Full Frame: Documentary Shorts" production) highlighted the last meal requests of a select bunch of men and women about to be exucuted. It interesting to see what people ordered; like me, many people ordered a whole sleu of foods--just wanting to get a little taste of their favorites, I suppose.
All in all, I think I would probably just want a mango and would dedicate it to all of the Siddhas (enlightened beings alive and beyond) whom I pray to now for the gift of the vision of the Truth within. I know it sounds very 'New Agish' etc., but it's actually a very old tradition.
:)
CASEY: Ice cream is a definite must for me! If I chose to eat the full retinue of my favorite food items, ice cream would be near the top of my list...coffee ice cream with hot fudge does it for me every time! ;)
MARK: Oh, I agree. I think you should indulge yourself in the confection items; it would be nice to know that when you die that you will do so with a smile on your face! (I suspect that, like me, your face is regularly fitted with a smile anyway, no? No matter what circumstances life throws at you.) :)
ANONYMOUS: From the list of items you've posted, I'm trying to figure out if you are Cousin Chrissy or my great friend Franco...hmmmm...it's a wonder. While I understand the sweet indulgence of your last supper request, I am afraid that those particular food items would cause my stomach to ache--in a big way. Like Mark (see above), I would like to die with a smile on my face; not with a bottle of Pepto Bismol glued to my mouth. ;)
