;D I'm happy to see that my cooking contest idea has generated an interesting response! So, maybe at the end of the competition the losers would have to eat the winner's "concoction"! lol.
:laugh:
My favorite thing about the food in Bobby's bowl is that it could be open to a *huge* range of interpretation and different types of food. I think cheesy potato soup sounds very plausible. So does clam chowder. But, then, also oatmeal or (as you say) some kind of ambrosia-esque fruit salad is possible too.
I think the only winning critieria should be visual.
:laugh: :laugh:

This is an awesome thread! More ideas:
Leaning Against a Pickup Provacatively. Chasing Pack Mules (extra points for creative profanity). The Jack Rodeo Dance. The Cassie Hair Swing. Chilean Sheep-Dragging.
LaShawn Line Reading (Without stumbling. Extra credit if in one breath.)
"It's a good thing that you and Lu happened along when you did, or else we'd still be stuck on the side of the road in that dern pickup. I told Randall we oughta take the car, 'course he don't ever listen to me. He wouldn't listen to me if he was goin' deaf tomorrow. I told him it takes more than chewing gum and baling wire to fix that pickup. Well, he's never been very mechanical though."
or:
"When I was right out of SMU I coulda had my pick of pretty much any job in North Dallas, so my pick was Neiman Marcus which was a disaster because, honey, where clothes is concerned, I got no resistance, I was spending more than I made, more than Randall ever will make. We come out here thinking ranching was still big hats and Marlboros, boy, were we behind the times!"
or:
"…and then I pledged Tri Delt at SMU and I sure never thought I'd end up in a pokey little place like Childress, but then I met old Randall here at an Aggie game, and he was an animal husbandry major. So we been here a month, he got the foreman job over at Roy Taylor's ranch. Like it or not, here I am!"
Ellemeno:
Canned peaches mixed into light vanilla yogurt. I love the idea of this, but I wonder if it would be practical at the BBQ, since many of us will be coming long distances. Maybe this one event of the competition could be played at home, with photos of "the substance" uploaded to BetterMost for judging. Extra points could be awarded for set decoration, (purple chairs, for example).
serious crayons:
Of all the movie's many mysteries and unanswered questions, this is the biggest. Why would a kid be eating anything like that whatseover, just as Thanksgiving dinner is being served? Especially because the conversation later turns on the issue of how important it is for him to eat the dinner his mother spent three hours making?
Or maybe she spent three hours on the ambrosia, and the normal eight to nine hours on the turkey and side dishes?
???

I quite enjoy this one!

This makes me think that at "top Lureen's pick-up line" contest might be fun. I think many of us acknowledge that the "mating call" pick up line was a stroke of genius on Lureen's part... it would be fun to hear what BetterMostians might come up with as pick-up lines off the tops of their heads.
;D
