confession

This meatball came from Filippi's Pizza Grotto in Napa. It cost $4. I now owe my coworker $4.

This meatball is by far the biggest meatball I have ever seen. (Have you seen one larger? This was the size of my fist.) They had to cut the top off to fit it in the takeout tray.

This meatball took 10 minutes to eat. And I ate the whole thing. And I am supposed to be "mostly" vegetarian, with exceptions made only for seafood. (Because I could catch a fish. Because I wouldn't feel guilty doing it.)
