When You're Kinda-Sorta Vegetarian

What's wrong with a cheese platter for dinner?

I am not a huge fan of any meat. I don’t think that it tastes good and the texture is weird. I also have a problem with chewing my food for what feels like five hours before you can swallow it. Now, I am not a full on vegetarian. I love sushi and I’m not afraid to eat a hamburger every once in a blue moon. Here are some of my daily thoughts when it comes to food and on being an almost vegetarian.

No, it's not a health thing.

No, I'm not trying to save all the animals.

I just don't like it okay?!

Is there meat in this dish?

Can we not put meat in this?

Okay, what if we put it on the side?

If you ground up the meat really well so that I can’t tell it’s in this spaghetti then I will probably eat some of it.

Oh look, I managed to eat all of my spaghetti and leave all the meat in the bottom of my bowl.

Is there a side dish to go along with the steak, because if not, I will starve.

If you have to use a knife to eat some kind of meat, then I’m not having any.

Steak, Pork Chops, Ribs….No thank you.

And don’t get me started on bacon.

We’re having a BBQ? Great, looks like I will be having chips for lunch today.

Hotdogs??? LOL, I would rather eat my arm instead.

I will eat a hamburger only if it is from Five Guys and if it has everything on it so that you can’t actually taste the hamburger part.

What’s wrong with some pasta salad? Or some regular salad? Or a cheese platter for dinner instead?

Why do people always mix meat in with the rest of their food? WHY?!

It just makes it that much harder to eat around it.

I still don’t understand why we just can’t have pasta and cheese for dinner every night.

I should probably have some protein in my life, yeah?

Peanut Butter it is!

BBQ restaurant for dinner? Only if they have mashed potatoes and mac and cheese that I can order instead.

Can I get an order of pasta please. No I would not like to add any meat. Yes, I’m serious.

People trying to ruin mac and cheese with chicken or hot dogs.

What if we order a full meal and you can have the main course (meat) and I can have the side (mashed potatoes)

I’m actually a cheap date, so you should be thanking me that I didn’t order a steak.

I can handle meat in one meal per day. That’s my limit.

Most people think that it’s the end of the world when you don’t enjoy all meat products. But the reality is that I just don’t think it’s that good. I have to be in the mood to eat a hamburger or I have to be incredibly hungry and there are no other options for me to eat just a piece of meat.

My boyfriend's goal is to get me to order a steak one day. He probably shouldn’t count on that, but I did start to eat hamburgers again, so who knows what the future might hold.

Peace out meat lovers. I'll be over here with my cheese platter and some wine.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
