I'm very sad to say, there were no jackasses who put falafel in a taco shell. I really, really wanted someone to do it.

I'm guessing everyone punked out because of Labor Day, the one month I finally DON'T punk out. There's a real O. Henry vibe going on here lately.

Exciting news, everyone: I ate a bowl of Rice Krispies tonight! Of course, it wasn't all that long ago, so there might still be gastro-intestinal repercussions.
It goes without saying that I'm not cooking tonight. Unless you count opening bottles of Gatorade as cooking, in which case I've been cooking up a storm. (Also: Gatorade is VILE. How do they fool so many people into buying it? Do people really drink it, or is it used mainly as an industrial solvent?) Instead, I bring you the Hobo Monday roundup that I was meant to have brought you on Saturday morning except ...
Okay, so turnout was pretty crappy, which you gotta expect when the organizer herself wusses out on the event. And then one person completely neglected the whole "theme" thing - is there something about my readership that renders you congenitally unable to read rules? - meaning a full 20% actually weren't participating at all. So the maddest of props to the five of you who churned out some cheap-ass food, with slightly diminished props to the person who didn't follow the rules
I mean, I let that one in, but with the full awareness that we're totally going to talk ...
Guestwriting for me is really a thankless job, I'm a taskmaster. Thanks to all who stepped in to pinch hit, including those whose work didn't make it up because I had to come back before I got too spoiled having people fight over posting on my behalf. Let's give all the brave souls a round of applause:
No Recipes: Wins my heart with smoked pork belly with lentils
cook eat FRET: She wants me to have awesome shit
Qui Si Mangia Bene: One killer reuben
Gild the Voodoolily: She's pregnant and crazy
Fotocuisine: Two words: Thomas Keller
Unintended Byproducts: She gets drunk out of animal heads

HEY YOU! If you didn't see yourself here right away and you sent your entry to firstthursday@, that's why. In the future please send everything to michelle@, as the guidelines state. As we see, dual addresses cause confusion and ft@ became a refuge for ebay and Nigerian scammers, so it's being shut down. (Plus, this isn't a FT event anyway). Sorry for any confusion.
Moving on.
My poblano empanadas were obviously the best of this month's entries, but I guess the rest of you did a decent job and only 2 people flouted the rules, which I think is a ...
I know I'm late. We went to see Watchmen last night, got home late, and I was so traumatized by it that I had to re-read the book to erase the memory of the film from my brain. NOTE TO FILMMAKERS: Simply making a film that looks incredibly visually similar to a comic book does NOT MAKE A GOOD MOVIE. Also, the screenwriter should be forced to give back whatever he was paid because he did not do anything except re-type the text of the comic into Microsoft Word, and the "visionary" director should be chained ...
Get out your flutes and your bubbly, it's hors d'oeurvres time! (Look out for a flute roundup this week to make your swanktastic party complete.)
Without further a-dew, your roundup:

Apparently, judging from the number of participants we had this month, y'all don't want to cook things you probably won't like. Go figure.
Those of us who did try were uniform in our attempt to augment or disguise the hated ingredient with universally beloved cooking methods: (1) cover disgusting item in cheese; (2) cook disgusting item with cured pork product; or (3) fry disgusting item. I muddled through to produce some depressingly repellent pasta sauce with liver. Four other brave souls joined me:
