Quote of the Week 1/9/12

January 9, 2012

I’m still having a hard time getting used to writing “12” when dating things. It’s weird. I’m 22, and I feel so old. Everything’s changing. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. I’m excited for this next phase of my life, whatever that may be! But I digress! When I stumbled upon this week’s food quote, I couldn’t help but related; Lisa Loeb could be describing my own mother in this quote. I think that’s what I love about it. So this one’s for Tina!

“I have many memories of waking up to eat breakfast that my mother carefully prepared for us and her saying, what do y’all want for lunch, and as we’re eating lunch, what do y’all want for dinner? It’s always about the next meal.”

–Lisa Loeb

My mother's very glad I never ended up on the pole. Good parenting.

Queen of the Food Age

Sydney is the founder of Queen of the Food Age, a regionally recognized food blog that her mother insists is the greatest thing she’s ever read. Sydney spends her free time reading and writing but not doing arithmetic because numbers confuse her. Generally you can find her laughing at goofy videos on YouTube, taking Instagrams of her food while at dinner with friends, or singing really bad Journey karaoke.

TINA does make a pretty amazing breakfast. “Is this breakfast okay? Can I make you something else?” with three types of eggs on the table, and sausage, toast, pancakes, bacon… sigh. Your mom is AWESOME.

And… yes! This net phase of life is going to be awesome. It’s when you move to Atlanta, I get married, you meet the perfect man, and we all celebrate being young and amazing before we settle down with kids.
