And I ♥ these guys for the shoutout. See how easy it is to fall into these self-inflating virtuous cycles where I like you, when you like me, and then we all sing-dance-sing-along with Barney & Friends (Baby Bop, BJ, and Riff).
YOU TOO CAN BE PART OF DECONSTRUCTING DINNER SYCOPHANCY DANCE DANCE CRAZE WITH OUR HOT NEW BADGE adapted from this original. To wit:

Speaking of RobZ, he’s got a semi-starring role (along with the rest of the boys and KKV) in the new new episode of Deconstructing Dinner (you’ll find him featured in the I am a Firestarter sequence). It’s been a while since I last posted one of these (Japan?), but that’s conveniently ignoring that there’s a lost king cake episode in the can that’s floating around on one of the many hundreds of orphaned hard drives populating my detrito-sphere.
Volume 8! I almost can’t count that high. Whether it’s okonomiyaki or monjyayaki, it triggers salivary responses in me just watching it. Oh man I need me some more.
This episode is the first restaurant-based deconstructing dinner. Next up, sausages uncased!! Or not. See em all!
Just a little late, Lee’s birthday cake gets deconstructed post Bangin’ Boca Bar Birthday Bash. In today’s small world coincidence, our co-chef for the evening Lisa is Ahree Lee’s sister-in-law - her brother is Nathan Melsted.
It’s more of a Deconstructing Dessert really, but has a multitude of cameos to make up for the grammatical inaccuracy. Special thanks to assistant camerapersons Catie & Annie and icers Ev & Polly. And of course AS on giant hamburger construction.
No one wants to be the guy who makes people listen to his piss-poor karaoke Like a Virgin while they’re trying sing Hank Williams classics and smack each other on the back with broken beer bottles. This of course is in direct conflict with the desire to get people to see and validate any of the random crap I’ve been spending my life generating lest it go otherwise unobserved.
With that caveat, I couldn’t decide what to bring to the November Open Screen so burned both HOCR and the new new Deconstructing Dinner . There was a massive crowd in the Coolidge lobby, unfortunately all there to see the premiere of No Country For Old Men. Overall I think CNHB’s first starring roll and the spicy lasagna went over better (AVDK’s opinion to the contrary) than the Clap Your Hands Say Yeah bit. The thing about a one minute film is if the audience doesn’t expect it to be so short and they’re trying to settle in it understand what you’re doing it can be over before it even gets started.
IMO the best film of the night was Kimberly Andrade’s (mostly) found footage montage, ‘The Wonder of Water.’ I can’t find this online but she used the opening from the film below, Normandy beach scene, slow motion/zero gravity water balloon bursting and a kicking Flaming Lips soundtrack.
Better than disgusto quote-unquote tacos, yet another parade or even Harvard streakers, it’s our special commemorative World Series edition of Deconstructing Dinner. Mad props to the female half of my krewe, Steven & Bonita too.
I’ve been a little out of it since I got back from Chicago due to a combination of irregular sleep, a busted ankle, coming off an excessive coffee habit and other interpersonal malaise. It having now been a week since MV’s wedding and goat roast, I’ve decided to reassert normality with another episode of Deconstructing Dinner shot last month in Ft. Lauderdale. Enjoy!
