ep·i·cure·a·noi·a
-noun
1. The suspicion or fear that your friends are cooking more interesting meals than you are.
ex:
I felt a stab of epicuranoia when I saw Frank and Ellen come out of the Asian grocery store.
Amanda's Flickr pictures of curried eggplant aggravated my epicuranoia.
Though we enjoyed their cooking very much, every time we ate at Sarah and Ron's house our epicuranoia was confirmed.

Ha! I thought it was going to be about the fear of carbs!
ReplyDeleteHee hee, could very well have been, I have been on Atkins since 2002! How about carbophobia?
ReplyDeleteI don't have that fear, I know for a fact that everyone is cooking better meals than me... :) And I'm quite happy and comfortable in that knowledge.
ReplyDeleteSee you soon!
