Collateral Damage

A less controversial post today! Maybe make you feel less uncomfortable by talking about my Jew-yness and fear of calories

I am, essentially speaking, 1/2 Jewish. This is purely ethnic, though- I was raised Episcopalian Apparently I’m pretty damn Jewish, though ’cause all my life I’ve hated pork (though I have to admit I pepperoni pizza!) and apparently I remind family members of my very Jewish great- grandmother. I also prefer to buy kosher goods but I’ve never been able to explain why… Also, Jewish friends from the time I was a kid up to present times have dubbed me their “honorary Jewish” friend & before my nose job (partially reconstructive for my cleft & partially cosmetic) I had a giant Jew + Native American bump on my nose. Thank god that’s gone! (Also, note the frizzy brown hair to stereotype, LOL)

Anyways

So today I was doing some grocery shopping and there’s a giant Jewish section there (there’s a pretty big Jewish community in Northern Virginia) & I was delighted to find they had some macaroons on sale! Add to this, they’re kosher & banana split- flavoured!

*Insert holy music playing with sun through clouds here*

The downside? 110 calories per serving. A serving is 2 pieces EPIC FAIL
Because of my innate fear of getting fat, I’ve limited myself to 2 a day. At this rate, they’ll last until after Passover!

Oh well, at least I won’t gain a 100 pounds and die inside, right?
