The Saint Louis Cardinals were up three to one against the LA Dodgers. All they had to do is win one more game. But did they? DID THEY? NO.
This means there’s a good chance the seventh game of the playoffs will conflict with my MenoParty on Saturday, damnit.
It also means I may have to make good on the Governor’s bet I made with Long Time Reader Catherine in LA. If the Dodgers win, I have to eat a cup of Ramen Noodles, breaking my lifelong streak of never eating a Ramen Noodle ever, and if the Cards win she has to eat Gooey Butter Cake.
The Cards were not IN the playoffs when I planned this party, but it is an odd-numbered year. I should have known.

Who set up that bet? For her, it’s win-win.~
~~silk – she claims ramen noodles are so wonderful that I am getting a fair deal.
She’s lying. They’re terrible and salty if you use the seasoning, like cardboard if you don’t. Go to Serious Eats website and look at recipes to make them palatable because she totally has you snowed.
The only way I can eat ramen is dry. Nibbled raw. I pretend it’s fat shredded wheat.
Ramen is the sodium bomb of all time.
Amy in StL – but it’s high in fat and salt. How can it be bad?
~~Silk – Hm. An interesting snack.
Hattie – and high in, fat, too. But, I dodged the ramen bullet.
