Food meme...

There’s been a ton of stuff going on lately, but honestly I've either been too busy, tired, or out of it to put everything into words & post a proper entry. Maybe one day. Instead you get this meme I got from a friend's journal, which only adds more things to the list of foods I must try.

1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.

2) Bold all the items you've eaten.

3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
