Confession: I’m A Vegetarian Who Loves Heart-Attack-y Food Blogs

Amy Rose Spiegel :: Friday, February 5th, 2010 5:00 pm

Recently, I decided to stop eating meat, which is huge for this meatloaf-and-gravy-lover.  My newfound vegetarianism basically means that I now eat only pizza and broccoli (never combined, I find that vegetables make pizza too soggy), my favorite meatless foods.  Truthfully, I can’t say I’m mad at that.  However, I love to live vicariously through food blogs that showcase record amounts of trans fats and what appears to be deep-fried lard.  If you’re also a reluctant vegetarian, or maybe just an unapologetically-indulgent eater, I’m sure you’ll love these links, too.

Links For A Wednesday At Work

Amy Rose Spiegel :: Wednesday, January 27th, 2010 1:35 pm

Midday hitting you a little hard?  Depending on your inclination (serious, frivolous, or some combination of the two), one of these links will be sure to sate your office-induced boredom.  Just make sure you’re wearing headphones if you choose to explore the Jersey Shore soundboard - we’re not responsible for evisceration by co-workers, otherwise.

1.  This recent New York Magazine article about a city of homeless people in the woods of New Jersey built by a minister.  Social experiment or pure altruism?

2. The Jersey Shore soundboard.  Prank call your dearest guido- and guidette-loving pal with panache!  Suggested combination of terms:  “I like tan Italian boys with muscles” and “BIG FAKE BOOBS.”  Oh, the hilarity!
