We’re getting close to finishing up eating every single stinking can of Chef Boyardee! Just one more week to go and we’re all done!

This week is kind of yin/yang episode as we’re sampling the Mini Ravioli and the Overstuffed Beef Ravioli.

There’s the cans in the MBIP World Headquarters cupboards. Time to take them down and start this week’s Chef Boyardee samplings.

I’m really excited…to get this the fuck over with already!

Mini Ravioli

We’ll start off with the Mini Ravioli. You can see one of the raviolis peeking out in the bird’s-eye-view shot.

Right now I’m wondering if “Ravioli” is Ravi Shankar’s proper first name? What a wasted thought that was!

Here it is plopped in the pan and we’ll add some pepper.

First Bite: We had the regular ravioli on the very first post of the series. This was exactly the same, but smaller.

Overstuffed Beef Ravioli

I added pepper to this, but forgot to take the action photo of it. I hate it when that happens!

EXTREME CLOSE-UP!

First Bite: We had the regular ravioli on the very first post of the series. This was exactly the same, but bigger.

Label, Reality, Rating

Both of them get a half Chef Boyardee rating. Same rating as the original Ravioli post but these were bigger and smaller.

Cupcakes From Guilty Pleasures Cupcake Bakery!

My friend Blondie surprised me with a delivery of a half a dozen gourmet cupcakes from the Guilty Pleasures Cupcake Bakery in East Peoria yesterday!

They look so sweet and delicious!

15. sweet_8-13-21.jpg

This is their chocolate cupcake with rich vanilla icing. This is one of the best cupcakes I’ve ever had! I’ll have to stop by their bakery and do a post from there down the road.

Thanks so much Blondie, this was literally such a sweet thing you did! You’re the best!

What the fuck? Are those eggs on the hippie pizza pie in the upper left?

Who are the ad wizards who came up with this one?
