Iowahawk has somehow gotten his hands on Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor’s menudo recipe:
I believe jurisprudence, like cooking, requires many ingredients to make a satisfying meal. In Latina culture we love menudo, the delicious spicy sopa
made from simple ingredients. Think of the Constitution as our base
ingredient: a bland, tasteless broth of boiled white tripe. Doesn’t
sound so tempting, does it? Now here’s where the fun comes in: all of
the cooks gather in the cocina and bring their own special
secret ingredients to the mix. Souter salts the pot and Roberts adds
Wonder Bread and mayonnaise; Breyer the lox and cream cheese. Thomas
drops in fried chicken, and Alito and Scalia spaghetti. Now here comes
Kennedy with corned beef and potatoes. Stevens adds the Metamucil. Now
we’re cooking! Finally, I stir in my special picante blend of Latina
legal spices. What started as a boring simple broth is now a delicious
crazy justice stew — that tastes different every time!
