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.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
