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 :)

Comments

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. :)

Funny Things 2 - American Fair Edition

We just got back from Roadtrip #8 in Macon, GA. It was an awesome trip!! So, before we head out on the next trip, we went to the North Florida Fair! The fair is always famous for it's fried foods... they fried everything!!... They had fried/breaded zucchini, Mushrooms, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Onions, green tomatoes, okra, pickles, etc :) I had a lot of it too - YUM! Now, I'd heard of fried Snickers & twinkies (which they had) but they also had FRIED OREOS & PEANUTBUTTER CUPS :) The fair was cool. They had a shark show and a sea lion show... but our favorite was the pig races :) haha!!! It was hilarious!! Aashini was close up to the race until the pigs came - then she crawled up into Adam's lap really fast :) (as seen below) :) Pig races! haha! Cracks me up!

Comic Con 2013

 Comic Con 2013 just ended.  It was a fun one this year.  This was the 3rd Annual Comic Con here.  We've been to it all 3 years.  It's getting bigger each year!  I think they grew out of their venue this year...it was soooo crowded!  Here's me imitating "Superkudi" :)  Aashini and me :)  For the Love of Comics...  Some guys that were dressed up... the guy on the left isn't in his full attire... He won the CosPlay contest that day... he won a trip to Dubai to their Comic Con!!  This was my favorite costume of the day... Nyan Cat :)  There were lots of people there!  Me and the girls on the 2nd day :)  I had to have at least one jumping picture :) Our friend Ford made a video of the first day... check it out!

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!!
