Can I Get a Nom-Nom?
Aug. 10th, 2009 11:04 amStarted Weight Watcher's last Saturday, lost 3.2 lbs the first week (and that included a 3-day visit from my brother which involved pizza, Cajun food, barbecue and eating at the zoo snack bar.) I, in a word, rule.

Saw Julie & Julia yesterday with Caza and my love for Meryl Streep never wanes, not matter how much of a no-brainer loving Meryl Streep is. There was a lovely bit that reminded me of meeting LJ friends in person for the first time, and I teared up a bit over Vinnie, Laura, Andrea, Anne, etc. And then there was butter and my soul was at peace. :)
Jonah's birthday party is this coming Saturday (I KNOW!) and I am doing a hot dog bar. Grilled, all-beef Nathan's hot dogs, with everything from mustard to cheese to sauerkraut to chili sauce to choose from. For a utility hot dog (movies, ball games, etc) I like simple mustard and relish on a plain bun. For a kicked-up at-home hot dog, though, I want mustard, relish, sauerkraut and onions on a whole-wheat bun.
Caza likes his with a slice of processed American cheese and ketchup. Yuck. Most people around here seem to like the "Texas" style dog with chili, cheddar cheese and jalapenos. In South Korea, they're coated with sugar. In Venezuela, street vendors sell "perros con todo" ("dogs with all") with chopped cabbage, potato chip crumbs, chopped onion, white cheese, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and tomato sauce. My weirdo friend
uberaeryn eats them cold out of the package and my friend Michele only likes them boiled on the stove top (ick.)
What about you guys? Are Tofu dogs edible? Are New Zealand hot dogs actually mullet in disguise? What do you want on your weinie??? And what do you call it? Hot dog? Frank? Coney? Tube steak?
I have two sleeping babies and about an hour to kill. Hit me.
