So with the release of The Hobbit movie(s), Denny’s came up with the Hobbit Menu. Now I’m a big nerd, and fan of all things J.R.R. Tolkien, but I couldn’t persuade myself to go eat any of this menu. Well, seems this fella had done it for me, and the rest of us too.
Please enjoy this gatronomical feat. Anyone for second breakfast?

My response?
Well, it’ll be no more breakfasts at Denny’s for me, that’s for sure.
In fact, I am about to become a vegetarian after watching a witty documentary, “Vegucated,” on Netlflix Instant last night.
I was bothered to see horrible scenes of how animals raised for food are treated, even by so-called “organic” producers.
But what I liked about that documentary is that it also had a sense of humor, as it followed 3 New Yorkers who pledged to become entirely “vegan” over 6 weeks.
Frankly, I doubt that I could ever become a “vegan,” because I love cheese.
And so, I’ll settle for “vegetarian” even as I empty out my fridge of those frozen meatballs tucked away in my freezer.
Wish me luck, will you?
I got a stomach ache from just viewing this.
Gluttony as Sport!
