I find it utterly bizarre that you reduce Julia Child to a food critic. I know you’re recovering from oysters and lobsters, but Julia did not merely write about food, she created it and taught it, and loved it. I get it that critic can mean writer not grouch, but I am grouchy about your choice. Harumph.
I really like this poem. It brings back vivid memories. But instead of punishment, our teachers used it as a reward. Only someone being especially good got to leave class to pound those black, felt erasers.
Garrison is recovering from oysters and lobsters? What did they ever do to him? Some of my best friends were oysters and lobsters, though they never frequented the Chatterbox Cafe. I would hope that Garrison would give oysters and lobsters another try. Fry the oysters for safety and steam the lobsters just so with plenty of drawn butter. I'm sure you'll rediscover what you liked about them in the first place. Hey, you're in New York City. Be adventurous.. But be safe. Your friend, John Finch.
