Am I the only person who just wants to drink half and half sometimes?

I know, it's kind of disgusting, but it's also kind of awesome. I'm not saying I want to down a whole container of it, but sometimes, I'd like to drink just a little. I had a room mate who used it like milk. I wouldn't go that far, but sometimes you just want something super rich and creamy. I generally reserve it for my coffee though, but I'm sure other people must have this impulse on occasion?

Since we're on the topic of things that are terrible for you, I'd like to put in a word on fast food. I've probably mentioned that I've eaten more of it this year than in the past, somewhat for financial reasons and somewhat because I'm lazy and well, let's face it, it just tastes good. In any case, I had to watch Supersize Me in my Foundations of Holistic Health class. It's not the first time I've watched it, but it still is a fairly fascinating and horrifying look at the world of fast food, particularly McDonalds. If you aren't familiar with the movie, it's basically a documentary of a guy in good health who decides to eat nothing but what's on the McDonalds menu for 30 days. Not surprisingly it's absolutely horrible for his health and emotional well being.

Two things occur after watching this movie: 1. I have an inexplicable craving for a fast food burger ( though not Mickey Dees. They're the worst offender.) and 2. I feel revolted by fast food in general.
Both of these occur at the same time unfortunately. I did succumb to a Burger King Whopper the other day out of convenience. I've also learned that if I don't eat before class, or bring food, that I'm tempted to indulge in fast food because it's there and it's easy.

With all this mention of class, I should probably note that I recently, as in two weeks ago, started attending school to become a licensed massage therapist. That's actually a lot more work than it sounds like believe it or not since you have to learn anatomy and all that good stuff. So now I'm employed and in school and trying to promote my jewelry shop as well so I can have more money yay. Oh and trying to stay healthy... I'll write a bit more about that in the next post since this one was devoted to unhealthy stuff.

California Pizza Kitchen

I was excited and confused to see California Pizza kitchen at a rest stop near King of Prussia. I didn't know that they had fast food places in addition to restaurants. I've only eaten at a California Pizza Kitchen a few times- there was one in the mall near my house in Jersey, but it was always delicious. They have ( or had, I'm not really sure) an amazing goat cheese and red pepper pizza to die for. YUM.

Anyway, I couldn't get over the fact that they were in a rest stop. Apparently they've sold the company to some company that has stakes in a bunch of fast food places.

Unfortunately, I suspect that with the rest stop location comes fast food quality. A little poking around the internet found someone's flicker pictures of a pizza they got in King of Prussia and despite their comments that it was good, it has that fast food icky look to it. Pizza picture! Since I haven't tried it yet, the verdict isn't out. But maybe some time soon I will report back.
