Day 23: A Tribute

Emily L. and several others readers requested that I blog about Michael Jackson today. However, as I told them, I only blog about lunch. I considered eating black and white cookies for lunch today in MJ's honor, but decided against that plan. The truth is, I don't really understand why people care so much about MJ's death, and I feel bad for Farrah Fawcett and even worse for all of the regular, daily lunch eating people who died yesterday without getting any midnight vigils outside the Virgin Records in Time Square. So this post is dedicated to anyone whose death yesterday was NOT covered on tmz.com. I was sitting on a conference call at 12:30 today when hunger pains struck. This was a tough situation, because I needed to call Circa to place my order of whole wheat pasta with vodka sauce, because for some reason, this make-your-own-pasta sauce option is not on the circa website. I decided to put the conference call on mute, and call Circa from my cell phone while listening to the call with my other ear, crossing my fingers that no one would ask me any questions while I was on both phones. Luckily, the ordering process went smoothly. When my pasta came (after the delivery guy went to the wrong building), it was a little less saucy then I prefer for this dish, and the noodles were very limp and overcooked. The portion was nice sized though, so when I was done I was pretty full. Full, but not satisfied.

  2. It doesn't matter if it's black or white. Those cookies are generally gross.
