American with a Twist!

So I haven't been out as much lately... I'm huge and pretty uncomfortable, so walking around hasn't been a big priority... so I don't have much to share on this blog right now :) I thought I'd post about a few things we have here lately that are American with a twist ;)

We have McDonald's here and it's good - definitely different than the US (I posted about it before in case you're interested)... Anyway, now a few of them have started serving Breakfast! I'm excited. I haven't made it to have breakfast yet but I can't wait to try it :) One of the things they sell is the Veg McMuffin :) Sounds good! In our country eggs aren't usually considered veg (or vegetarian - does that answer your cupcake question Erin?) so this one is some sort of veg patty that has spinach - I can't wait to try it :)
We also have Pizza Hut here. There are some funny toppings (although definitely not as funny as Thailand has!)... For some reason they love to put baby corn on their pizzas... weird :) We ordered this pizza the other day - it had MAYO on it! haha!
well, that's all I've got right now :)

I SO wish we had Pizza Hut here in Prague!!! However, the pizza places that are here come up with some pretty crazy combos... I've seen everything from baby corn to whole kernel corn to green beans to tuna fish! And ketchup... lots and lots of ketchup. :)

yep that answers it. I don't know why I didn't put two and two together with the egg thing. Can I blame it on sleep deprivation or is my kid sleeping too well for that?

mayo on pizza. EW. I don't know how your pregnant belly got through that!

So many comments for one short post!
1. How exciting about the breakfast thing. I'm surprised it opens at 7 though. I would've thought they'd go the Cafe Coffee Day route and open for breakfast at 10. :)
2. I'm looking forward to your review of the spinach patty. You know I'm an avid Veg Surprise fan, but the spinach patty? Might take some convincing.
3. I LOVE baby corn on pizza. I love SA pizza...isn't that weird? I miss it.
4. Ew on the mayo. But I guess it goes along with the ketchup and mustard they always give on the side. :)

Be glad that the mayo was a topping. I picked up a slice of pizza at Walmart once that had Mayo INSTEAD of cheese. Life overseas :)

haha! That mayo story reminds me of the pizza I had in the mountains that had shredded cabbage in the sauce! I definitely did NOT order that...it was a bonus. :)

Cooking!

Cooking is sooo much harder here. THis is how you "puree" vegetables when you don't have a blender or food processor (or power). Some people have those things, but most people don't. This is my friend Gita. She's mashing up some onions. It's a marble slab that's not polished and they use a big rounded rock and just roll/mash! It's cool!!

Protesting

There's some political stuff going on in our city (and now the country) right now. People are peacefully fighting against corruption. It's been very interesting to follow. Tonight there was some protesting in our neighborhood. Here are some more protesting pictures. There will probably be more protesting to come... we'll see what happens!

Funny Things - Random :)

Here's a few random funny things ;) One thing that drives a lot of people crazy is honking! There are things that drive me crazy (like people urinating on the sidewalks - yuck!) but thankfully honking is not one of them because we hear it pretty much 24/7. We saw this poster the other day (below) and thought it was funny... BUT not as funny as the Hindi poster. The Hindi poster pretty much said that 'Honking is bad for your health' - haha ! Horns are actually a pretty necessary part of driving here. You don't really look behind you when you drive (most people either don't use their side mirrors, don't have side mirrors, or just have them folded in). When you drive, you just drive forward and you honk at the person in front of you to let them know that you're there - simple right? Sure, it's a little noisy, but you never have to look behind you :) If you go to that company's website it says: "Have patience at the traffic signals, let the signal t...
