Favorite Things I (inspired by Holly)

Holly had a very inspiring post about a challenge that I thought was suited for everyone. For 30 days, post one favorite thing a day. In the end, you are to have 30 favorite things that made your life a little bit more worthwhile. Yes. An exercise on appreciation and I think I'm up for a little challenge.

So here goes.

My first favorite thing describes me the most and is non other than food.

I absolutely love to eat and when I say eat I really mean eat. I could try anything from bugs in Bangkok to a slider down by the local bar. Honestly, I love to eat but I do have a special place for a good old fashioned American Burger. I grew up eating fast and junk foods.

I'm no athlete but I sure do have the appetite of one.

I've been thinking about many of my cravings and it is often with savory things. I like my food salty (occasionally spicy) but rarely sweet. I love it when I can just pig out with my friends over a 30" pizza (remember your birthday, Janey?) or some fish and chips with a bottle of SoCo. 


I do hate it though when people don't finish their food. I find so disrespectful and I am compelled to eat most of it. The other day, my officemate pointed out that I eat clean. Barely was their any rice in my plate and no sauce could be found scattered at the sides.


The things with me is that I'm a quantity eater. I don't just eat for the sake of tasting something. What would I rather choose, family sized pizza or a mozzarella cheeseburger? Definitely the pizza because it's bigger and I would feel like a champion if I finished the whole box. 


Lately, I've been thinking about my eating habits and how much I am a meat eater. I know sooner or later it will all catch up to and I think it is time to change some of my habits. Lately, I've been developing a taste for other things that I believe can satisfy my cravings and at the same time, teach me that quality is better than quantity. 


I wouldn't mind having a pear or two.
