So, Stuff Your Face With Lola

Okay, so when I say stuff your face, I don't mean over stuff your face! I love food and drink, but I am a big proponent of healthy eating and healthy living with exercise. Yet I can appreciate good food, or maybe I should say I am learning to appreciate it, surely I am still a novice. Sometimes I am considered a snob, but I like trying new things and often find that I very much enjoy some exquisite and different things. So be it.

I decided I would create this blog after a couple glasses of wine (2006 Snake River Syrah, Grenache, Mourvedre blend) and a few hours of blogging for From Lola's Lips. I have enough to say about where I eat, what I eat and whether it is good or bad and didn't want to jam it all into From Lola's Lips, so here it is!! I couldn't decide what I wanted to eat tonight, my roommate was starving but not feeling well at all, so I was on dinner duty. I decided to go with Pasha's. I called in an order for pick up: one filet mignon wrap, an order of hummus, an order of tabbouleh, one lentil soup, and basmati rice with tatziki. Needless to say, this was an obscene amount of food for my roommate and I to share! Prior to this evening, I have only had the tabbouleh, Greek salad, and hummus. And I constantly crave the tabbouleh and hummus. The wrap was delish, the basmati rice with tatziki was better than I expected, and of course the tabbouleh did not disappoint me. (Note: Don't ever buy tabbouleh from the Publix deli.) I am a big fan of Pasha's, its a healthy Mediterranean option that is worth what you pay. It sure beats the hell out of my miserable experience at the local Chinese joint Bamboo Garden (let me say again, don't go to Bamboo Garden).

And although I didn't drink the wine with my dinner, I did very much enjoy the wine. Maybe I am just partial to wines from back home (this was one my darling mother sent to me over the holidays) but no lying, it was wonderful!
