My name is Steph and my boyfriend is named Wes. Our friend started us on this habit of photographing our meals before digging in, and we realized as we looked over these pics that every meal encompassed so much more than simply filling our stomachs. Meals are so central to our daily lives; a place to connect, reminisce, and enjoy the company at hand.

RE: Pizza Time!

Yes, apparently a lot of my friends are getting married. And I am not just a bridesmaid, I will be my best friend’s maid of honor. Someone wasn’t listening, but I will attribute that to his hunger.

My meal was delicious. I love their Neapolitan Pizzas. The crust is thin and very crispy, so it’s not too filling, which is a problem I usually have when I eat pizza. My stomach ends up being stuffed with so much dough that I can’t enjoy the rest of my pizza.

I would have had dessert if I wasn’t so full and yes, I was laughing hysterically by the end of the meal. We were attempting to play a game of charades during dinner, which did not end too well … for Wes that is. He signaled “3 words” and then held up one finger for “first word”. I was in the mood for some fun, so I kept guessing words like “up” and “crooked” as he was pointing up and to the side. He finally moved on and drew the letter “F” but since I wouldn’t guess the correct letter, he resorted to grabbing the butter chip to find the letter. Keep in mind that all of the butter chips are the same. He picked up the first butter chip and couldn’t find the letter, so he proceeded to pick up the second butter chip in an attempt to find it there. That’s when I erupted in laughter because he expected to find a letter on the second packet that wasn’t on the first identical packet.

The fun didn’t stop there though. He gave up on the butter and went to the menu to find the letter. He finally found the letter “F” and my second fit of laughter began. I struggled to pick up the butter chip since I was convulsing with laughter and pointed out the words “Finest Quality Light Butter”. He picked up TWO of those packets and could not find the letter - after picking up TWO of them! I think the people sitting around our booth was wondering why I was howling with laughter. I think I burned off every single thing I had just eaten right then and there. I was laughing so hard that I was crying. Needless to say, he gave up on the game.

Okay, moving on. (I guess I’ll give Wes a break.) Has this every happened to you? You want to enjoy your meal, so you take a big bite of your food and the server shows up to ask you how your food is or if you need anything while your mouth is stuffed. It happened to me not once, not twice, but FIVE times. We actually counted. It always happens. After Wes laughed at me, it happened to him three times. That made me laugh as well … so much more enjoyable than any dessert! =)
