A post about food.

I think we should all take a moment out of our day to honor spaghetti and meatballs.

As a child my Mother would make spaghetti with meat sauce and I would (and still do) have the same reaction to it as I have when someone brings up Mexican food - I hate it. Now, as it is food and I am a fan of food, I will naturally eat both Mexican/Tex Mex food and spaghetti with meat sauce after initial protests. Under the right circumstances I might even enjoy either or.

HOWEVER, what I really can't get enough of is a play on the traditional spaghetti with meat sauce -- spaghetti with meatballs. Who knew that by forming the loose meat into ball shapes could so radically change a dish? On top of being delicious, it's also a dish that I can actually make on my own.. although not all that well... BUT!... even when made by me, it's still delicious.. which only further affirms my faith in the meatball. For the record, though, my favorite meat to be used in this ball is not beef, but instead turkey.. which is also healthier.

There really is nothing wrong with spaghetti and meatballs. Unless you're a vegetarian, in which cause there's a lot wrong with you.

In other food related news, I'm really excited for Katy to try Thai food in England. One of my big fears about ever moving to England would be that the food would be bland and mostly consist of boiled meats and flavorlessness (except for Indian, which should be good cause my people own them).. but if there is decent Thai in Nottingham or Sheffield or wherever Katy is, well, that'll just revolutionize my opinion of the English. However, I need to prep myself for the fact that Katy will most likely order something that has in it something she knows she hates, but she'll order it anyways because she is a degenerate waste of space and then will tell me how awful it was.

So, all in all thats the news from this end. Keep it real, keep it safe, keep it healthy.
