Lasagna legos and still hungry

I had one of those stress dreams where I was hosting a big family dinner, except I completely forgot to check if I had any ingredients. I was supposed to make lasagna, but when I opened the fridge, all I had was one sad noodle, no ricotta, and a bottle of garlic powder that looked like it predated civilization. Instead of admitting defeat, my dream-brain went full chaos mode. I mixed cottage cheese with cream cheese (why?), threw in the ancient garlic powder, and decided the lone lasagna noodle could just sit on top for aesthetics. The salad? A single cucumber slice on a plate. Somehow, I believed this was a reasonable solution.

Then my family arrived, and things got weird(er) lol. My mom took a bite and gave me a slow, disappointed nod. My brother just stared. My dad, bless him, ate everything like it was totally normal. Then my dog was suddenly sitting at the table, wearing an apron, judging my plating as the lasagna switched into a casserole made of legos. Right as I was about to finally take a bite, I woke up confused, starving, and honestly kind of concerned about what my subconscious thinks of my cooking skills.
