ENJOYING THE AMERICAN CULTURE
I'm really taking the opportunity to enjoy the American Culture when I'm here. Which basically means that I'm eating like a pig, and alternating that by going to the hotel's gym and hitting the crosstrainer in panic, only to get out to try another cupcake. Or doughnut. Or pizza. A new favourite is Panda Express' fried prawns. That are covered with a honey and walnut sauce. Those devil prawns are going straight to my hips.
Luckily I can live in ignorant bliss since American dress sizes are bigger than European ones (for obvious reasons). Although Alex said it doesn't count if you wear S or XS in a big floaty cardigan since "you could fit a small elephant in there anyway."
This is btw the most shocking pizza I've ever had:
Right. I thought I had a picture of the pizza but I don't. Fail. So, imagine a 16- inch pizza ENTIRELY covered with cheese in two layers. And then you DOUBLE that. That's what it was. You'd think that is an actual four cheese pizza or something. But no. It's a pepperoni pizza. (Supposedly the pepperoni is somewhere under all those layers of cheese....) And to make things better, you get some parmesan cheese with it that you can, eh, sprinkle over the cheese. Which naturally makes a lot of sense....
This is from a more civilised lunch yesterday at a Thai restaurant. (In comparison to much else, this is super healthy!) I'm glad there's only a couple of weeks left, you can easily get pulled into this, eum, culture. The culture of fattiness.
