mmm… pizza…
posted by soe 4:29 pm

If I tell it I like mushrooms, it tells me I’m cultured and intellectual and should go to Vienna. If I tell it I prefer no veggies on my pizza, it tells me I’m boring and uninspired and should just stay home on vacation…


What Your Pizza Reveals


There are no limits to your eating. You often devour the scraps your friends can’t finish.

You are a very picky pizza eater. Not any pizza will do. You fit in best in the Northeast part of the US.

You like food that’s traditional and well crafted. You aren’t impressed with “gourmet” foods.

You are dependable, loyal, and conservative with your choices.

You are cultured and intellectual. You should consider traveling to Vienna.

The stereotype that best fits you is hippie. You knew it was coming.

What Does Your Pizza Say About You?

happy world vegetarian day!
posted by soe 11:40 pm

Today was World Vegetarian Day. There are lots of … lesser-known … holidays out there, so I suppose it ought not to have surprised me that there was a celebration for all things unmeat, but it did.

But since Suzanne pointed it out to me on Friday, I thought I ought to officially celebrate.

  • Breakfast: A blueberry scone from the farmers’ market with mascarpone, oj, and tea
  • Lunch: A vegetarian wrap (a spinach wrap with hummus, spinach, tomatoes, carrots, mushrooms, and sprouts — Suzanne, I even made it vegan in your honor by leaving off my normal grated cheddar), potato chips, water, and a Honeycrisp apple
  • Afternoon Snacks: A miniature Twix bar, Frosted Strawberry PopTarts, and tea (You see where my healthy eating falls apart now, eh?) at work and dark chocolate peanut M&Ms as an appetizer before dinner
  • Dinner: Veggie stirfry (featuring tofu, squash, new carrots, spicy and sweet peppers from our garden, and eggplant) with rice, tea, and a yogurt parfait for dessert

Yes, I normally lean veggie anyway, but I figured that it was worth eating consciously today regardless. And it was delicious!
