I found myself craving pizza yesterday—craving it hard. This probably had to do with the pizza videos I found myself watching on a YouTube channel called Weeds and Sardines. Up to now, I've been fine with watching all sorts of food videos, which is something I used to do even before the stroke. But yesterday, for whatever reason, I saw those pizza videos and really wanted a pizza, by which I mean a whole pizza. I've eaten whole pizzas before, of course; that's a 3000-calorie-plus meal right there (usually eaten over two sessions, lunch and dinner, not all at once). And here in Korea, what's called a "large" is an American medium, so I normally order family size (in fact, with Korean Papa John's, I have no choice but to order family size if I get the thin crust; they don't offer thin crust in anything less than family size). But I can't have any pizza until I'm off this austerity, and that means waiting another nine painful weeks. All I can say is... this austerity had better be worth it.

Look forward to the day you can treat yourself to a Gino's pie. He's doing quite well, I hear. Itaewon, Apujeong, and a Busan location now.
You may recall that I went to his Busan location last year at the end of my walk. Wasn't as good as the branch in Itaewon.
Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that. Hope he's got that under control now...
