Free Lunch! Courtesy of Whining.

MMMM.... so i have a girl at work from nicaragua, (where? nicaragua... i love making her say it) and she gets the most awesome lunches, cause they do all this great spanish stuff.  She told her mom about me, and her mom was like, ok i made all this stuff, why dont you bring a lunch to jessica to try. but she DIDNT! cause she was too lazy to pack it for me!!! and i grumble as i do, and remind her her lazy ass costed me a free awesome mom made lunch.  So today! i breeze into work and see a tupperware container of pasta on my desk.  You know what beats free food? GOOD home made free food.  

Me and her are apparently on a "diet" right now. haha. so nothing makes a good meal than a cheesy pasta dish. i'm getting to the health part, she used ground chicken, and 'shrooms, and spinach, garlic, onions, tomatos, with lots of mozzarella, and jalapeno oil.  I think that's what it was.  I cant remember! but it was deeeelicious! Thanks M! You're the best!!!!

St. Lawrence Pizza & Ice Cream

Last week, or two weeks ago, who knows what and when i eat.. I went down to the St. Lawrence Market (more on that in a later post), and i always go hungry expecting myself to gorge my fat self, but alas, i am not 20 anymore and usually one meal stuffs me full.  So this time, i went to the St. Lawrence Pizza and Ice Cream, at the back, by the fishie place (I had a swordfish sandwich there, and it was amazing... first time swordfish, very meaty)... you'll always see a line up of people trying the free sample of pasta, or ravioli in their meat sauce, or some sort of spicy mix of everything (green, red, white... haha), with a fork, a sop of sauce, and on to the napkin and into your mouth, very no nonsense. 

I've bought their fresh ravioli when i want to treat myself, cause it's not cheap, and so this time i finally decided to sit down and munch of their fresh pastas at their bar.

This was my view... the only thing separating me from that hot sexy cheesy pizza was that dam glass or my face would be all in that.


This was my meat ravioli, got a mix of sauces of meat sauce and spicy, it was super yummy. I of couse had shared this large portion, cause it is quite a bit. 


Pizza looks good, will try it next time... if i want to waste my one meal on pizza...
