The Making of Raiders of the Lost Meatloaf Recipe

The Making of Raiders of the Lost Meatloaf Recipe

An addendum  to the ever popular blog post

The actual place I found the recipe 

a Step by step guide to the thought process and day of the making of a blog post

1.  Choose a movie (I mean Ahem...cough cough) IDEA behind the finding of my meatloaf  recipe.

2.  Choose a Tomb Raider-like character for myself

3.  Decide it may make Angelina Jolie jealous & change my mind. 

4.  Choose a Raiders of The Lost Ark movie theme instead.

5.  Try to find a whip to take a picture of---Change mind and decide against any Shades of Grey references. At the same time, notice my bedroom is painted a dark red...decide not not mention that.

6.  Decide to erase any mention of Shades of Grey or that my bedroom is red.

7.  Look for a hat instead that resembles Harrison Ford's in the movie. Give up.

8.  Call parents and ask to use their basement in a scene from my blog.

9.  Explain what a blog is to my parents.

10. Come up with another place to create the opening scene for my blog. Decide references to their basement will suffice.

11. Call them back and ask if they will dress as angry natives for another scene for my blog.

12. Call phone company for my parents. Apparently, they are having problems with their phone line.

13. Skip ahead to the boulder scene. Wonder if a bowling alley would let you take pictures of  their balls rolling toward you instead of away from you.

14. Call a random bowling alley to ask.

15. Check my cell phone reception.

16. Make a note to call my phone company about dropped calls.

17. Decide to take pictures of rocks on the side of the house instead.

18. Find Grandma's meatloaf recipe and make an actual list for the ingredients.

19. Put recipe in an old chest with a light inside and place it in the attic so it looks somewhat ancient.

20. Remember that the attic was recently insulated.

21. Search the Internet for how to remove fiberglass from skin.

22. Go grocery shopping.

23. Vow to show husband the script. Show husband the script.

24. Explain to husband that we really don't have a whip hidden in the bedroom.

25. Tell him we are having meatloaf for dinner.

26. Wonder why husband has suddenly started spring cleaning.

27. Make dinner, documenting every step.

28. Decide I can't take a picture while mixing meatloaf with hands.

29. Go search for husband to ask for help with the camera.

30. Find him under the bed.

31. Explain again that we don't have any whips in the house. I was just being funny.

32. Finally eat dinner.

33. Type out blog.

34. Write a disclaimer in case Steven Spielberg happens to want a recipe for grandma's meatloaf.

*Any resemblance the following post has to any characters, either real or fictional, specifically those created by Steven Spielberg, is purely coincidental and should be ignored by everybody; especially copy write lawyers and Hollywood.*
