Today at work I ate:
Steamed mussels, clams and shrimp in a red chili soup. Mixed greens salad with goat cheese, apples, toasted sliced almonds all tossed in an olive oil vinagrette. And french fries sprinkled with sea salt on the side. What a delicious job. :)

Cheese Factor and Weddings
I wish I meant, literally, cheese. But I don't. For once, not a food related cheese reference. *gasp*
Actually, I was just shocked to find out an old classmate is now MARRIED. Uhm, you're 22. That's CRAZY! Maybe not for everyone, but it happens. So my whole weekend was full of sappy Hallmark and Lifetime movies about weddings, marriage, and all that complicated adult relationship business. The cheese factor was to the extreme in all those movies. I could hardly stand it sometimes. Major cheese!
I'm angry the Giants lost to the Dodgers again. I ooze with hatred for the Dodgers! Grr! That aside, I was thinking about weddings and large celebrations in general. I have my best friend's graduation in June and I hope to make it easier to find me by making a very large arrow pointing at me and her family. Like really, I'll be hiding in a sea of tall blondes. Can you blame me??
I mentioned before that I'm probably, most likely, fairly certain though not medically proven, that I'm hypo-glycemic. I have to eat. Well, snack. So during my graduation my mother made me a candy lei and an apple lei for eating during the 3-hour ceremony. She knows I get cranky if I'm not munching on some food and even angry if I'm out in the sun. It was a HOT day. But ever so delicious. My leis caused such a stir that we nearly had a picnic in our row. And I was thinking, weddings are pretty long too. At least the church ones are. As a bride, you probably didn't eat in the 24hrs leading up to the big day. Who does that?! So I propose (haha, pun) an edible bouquet for the bride and bridesmaids. YUM. Of course, mix in some flowers but place fruit shaped like flowers too. So good. And while the priest is going on about spending eternity with each other, the bride can be nibbling on some delicious fresh fruit. I don't know about you but that's what's going down at my wedding. It'll be a delicious day indeed. :) Cheers!
