My title might shock some of you, but let me explain. I miss food! No, No, No, that doesn't do the trick- I MISS FOOOOODDD! It is always in the back of my mind, I constantly dream about it; I can't get it out of my head! It's so painful, but when I get real hungry some of the other interns (that feel my thirst for real food) and I will look on Pinterest at all the different food recipes. I just can tell through the computer screen, the texture that it would be in my mouth, the smell when it's done, and the delicious taste. It makes my mouth water just thinking about all the different kinds of food I could be eating! And that leads me to another point-I love the United States. Some may say that we just "steal" other peoples' food, but I think we give credit where it is deserved. We don't just cook Chinese food, and say that we invented it. It is called Chinese food for a reason-it's from China! lol Okay, I'm getting off track. The point I'm trying to make is, that other countries should be honored that we try to make their food. I know that it's not the real deal, but we try to imitate it the best we can. And in all that, we have Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Mexican, Greek, Thai, and Indian food available, and MORE! However, the food porn is bittersweet because the imaginary texture, smell and taste can only go so far and then I have to face reality. Really, I just miss that thick, juicy, mouthwatering STEAK. When it is grilled and seasoned to perfection. I like the piece that is still on the bone, so I can nibble off the rest of the meat that is stuck to the bone when I'm done. Then when I am engaging in my "food porn" I would move my fork towards the grilled asparagus. Maybe I would even wrap my asparagus in some sizzling crispy nomnomnom Bacon. (make sure when you say bacon in your head you use a French impersonation). Yeah, this might sound like a heart attack on a plate, and it very well could be but we only live once, right?! Now, you might think that this alone would satisfy my appetite- a nice steak, some asparagus- pretty good meal right? NO! Just, no. The next food course is fruit. Now imagine strawberries, raspberries, pineapple, blackberries, blueberries, bananas, oranges, and apples Oh My! -any fruit you can think of, it's there in one huge bowl just waiting to be devoured. Oh yummm, just the thought of this delicious food does the trick! Well almost. Now, people always say to save the best for last, but where I'm standing I put the best first! STEAK! But I'll say that I saved the second best for last, Dessert! The two ingredients that you can NEVER go wrong mixing: peanut butter and chocolate. Oh my, oh my, whoever first thought to mix those two together was brilliant! I'll let you in on a little secret of mine, sometimes when I'm craving something sweet, but I don't have anything made (when I'm in the US) I will just scoop out a spoon full of crunchy peanut butter and lay it into the chocolate chips! Dessert on a Spoon! Yum! You really don't need anything else. Now I would like to say that I cook this kind of stuff for myself all the time, but the truth is I don't. I help out in the kitchen and I like to cook, yeah, but the best part of cooking is EATING!

Big I love everything about this post! Haha would you also like a moo-ing triple decker hamburger?!? Love you little hope you're having a great time and we can have steaks at my house when you get back!!
Hi my name is Laura and I'm a chocoholic...damnit hahaha missing home huh, this is a lil risque! hahah maybe you should be a food writer?..I'll help with the eating. haha. I'm glad that we both have such a love for food :) Have we eaten pb and chocolate chips on a spoon together before?...because I do this whenever I'm craving chocolate and shouldn't indulge in making a pan of brownies or cookies. Sadly tonight I'm out of chocolate chips and needed a treat so I went for some big marshmallows (can you see me just stuffing my face full of marshmallows and saying chubby bunny?...I didn't do this but if you were here I would) then a glass of chocolate milk... but atleast I'm not eating a whole jar of marshmallow creme, right? ha.
