Tooter Fish Popkin
http://www.geekychef.com/2009/01/tooter-fish-popkin.html
From the The Dark Tower series by Stephen King
We can take the simple things for granted sometimes, like a plain old tunafish sandwich. There are places where there aren't any tuna sandwiches, you know... Like Midworld. When Roland of Gilead bought one of these on his trip into our world, Roland thought it might be one of the best things he's ever tasted... even if he couldn't say the word "tuna" and didn't know what a sandwich was, other than it was similar to a popkin. Anyway, make your favorite gunslinger's favorite sandwich, and keep in mind it makes two sandwiches (enough to share with your ka-tet!). And, as always, remember the face of your father.
Ingredients
1 6oz. Can of Tuna

Ingredients
1 6oz. Can of Tuna
1/4 cup mayonnaise (or to taste)
1/2 celery stick, cut into very small cubes
1 Green Onion Stalk, chopped
1 Green Onion Stalk, chopped
2 tbs. sweet relish
1 tsp. dill
4 pieces of wheat bread, lightly toasted
cracked pepper
Directions
Open and drain the can of tuna and place it into a small mixing bowl. Chop up the celery and add it to the bowl. Add the mayonnaise, relish and dill. Mix thoroughly. Put the tuna mixture on the bread (makes two sandwiches) and add cracked pepper.
If you forget the face of your father, it won't be a true Tooter Fish Popkin.
ReplyDeleteJust to clarify, Eddie didn't bring it back. Roland ordered it and brought it through all while Eddie was asleep. Also, all "popkins" are fully cooked, bread and all. I know, who gives a turkey. Just trying to help :)

ReplyDeleteThose were gunslinger burritos
DeleteGunna make my gunslinger a tooter fish popkin when he gets hungry later <3 HEHE he'll get it. Joshua that was freakin hilarious!
ReplyDeleteSometimes I wonder if the blind man can taste what his feet can see.
ReplyDelete^^Quite the wacky situation!
ReplyDeleteLook, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
ReplyDeleteTo seize everything you ever wanted. one moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?
Yo
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready to drop bombs,
But he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down,
The whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's choking how, everybody's joking now
The clock's run out, time's up, over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that
Easy, no
He won't have it, he knows his whole back's to these ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that but he's broke
He's so stagnant, he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again, yo
This whole rhapsody
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him
[Hook:]
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
(You better)
The soul's escaping, through this hole that is gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a new world order
A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post mortem
It only grows harder, homie grows hotter
He blows. It's all over. These hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's known as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows
He's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose 'cause here goes the cold water
His hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
He nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds
I suppose it's old partner but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da
[Hook]
No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this motherfucking roof off like two dogs caged
I was playing in the beginning, the mood all changed
I've been chewed up and spat out and booed off stage
But I kept rhyming and stepped right into the next cypher
Best believe somebody's paying the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard, and it's getting even harder
Trying to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter caught up between being a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screaming on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotony
Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot or I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only motherfucking option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go it's my shot.
Feet, fail me not, this may be the only opportunity that I got
I wrote a song about how much i love this shit:
ReplyDeleteWe clawed, we chained our hearts in vain
We jumped never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell.
A love no one could deny
Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
I put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the ground
Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
And instead of using force
I guess I should've let you win
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
I guess I should've let you win
Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
Id put a ring on it
