when you're such a bad ass, they address you as Mister... with a capital 'M'. so if you remember Miss Julienne Carrot, the sophisticated but tough b*itch from hell, then i'd like to introduce you to her big brother, Mr Brunoise. he's so bad that we only know him by his surname. to reiterate, a julienne is a stick-shaped cut of vegetable or other foods with the dimensions: 1-2mm x 1-2mm x 2.5-5cm. so what makes Mr Brunoise even tougher? well... he's a 1-2mm x 1-2mm x 1-2mm cube! if you thought getting two dimensions right was difficult, try three! if you're not too familiar with the metric system, might i explain this to you in terms of the imperial system? this might actually sound even more frightening as the dimensions are in fractions of an inch. defined in imperial terms, the sides of a brunoise are 1/16" x 1/16" x 1/16". does that sound any better? probably not!
to put it simply, today was not a great day. good... but not great. it totally started off on the wrong foot or lack of foot as i turned a corner on the street this morning and hit a large patch of black ice. up went my feet and down i came crashing. i've got a badly bruised hip and palm to prove it too. so when it came time to face Mr Brunoise for the test of all tests, i was definitely in no mood for a long haul brawl. Mr Brunoise... we shall meet again...
