Oodles of Noodles

If you have ever been broke, you know what I'm talking about. Sure they come in other brands, like Ramen. Nothing reminds me of how broke I am more than having an assortment of oodles of noodles in the kitchen. It's a damn shame when you start to get creative with the noodles. You know what I mean... Throwing veggies in there, adding other spices. I once made gumbo with the noodles; at least that's what I was trying to make.

But you know what? I like the noodles. They remind me of a time when life was as simple as watching cartoons. A time when my biggest money concern was whether I should buy a quarter water and a bag of chips with my last 50 cents, or a snickers bar.

So here's to shrimp and broccoli noodles (I mean shrimp flavored oodles of noodles with broccoli in it)... who the hell has money for shrimp?
