Birthday Pizooki

by Meghann on February 19, 2011

Packing got off to a swift start this afternoon.

I got one box full of DVDs and three or four other boxes full of junk spread across my living room ready to be re-sorted. Lovely.

I took a break from packing for a smoothie.

This was the last of my Yoplait Smoothie Kits plus a scoop of chocolate protein powder and granola for a little oomph.

I had dinner plans this evening at BJ’s to celebrate my friend Jessica’s 23rd Birthday. The service was slow as molasses, but the food and company were good. 🙂

The beer wasn’t bad either. I tried their seasonal Oasis beer and found it refreshing and flavorful.

BJ’s is one of those places that has a really long menu, but I really only have eyes for their pizza. Tonight’s pizza of choice was the Mediterranean.

This was the ‘mini’ which was really the perfect portion size for just me.

I’ve had better here, but it was still good.

Little Pizookie for the birthday girl

BIG PIzookie for the table

Can you say Holy Yum?!?

Out table of 8 killed it. Obviously.

My favorite was the peanut butter portion of the pie. So. Good! 🙂

I’m running 10 miles in the morning with a MegaNerd. Best get some rest!

P.S. My little Brother is now on twitter!

Oh, Ben. He does wear shirts other times. I promise.

14 Grace February 20, 2011 at 6:19 am: I love the lunch special that comes with a mini pizza and a salad. I love saucy pizza though so I always ask for a side of sauce since they only put tomatoes, it makes it way better! Those pizookies are literally to die for, I haven’t had to courage to try anything but good old chocolate chip. It is so good I was afraid I might ruin it by trying a different one?

I’m on the job market, and when I give my ‘job talk’, I like to acknowledge the students who did the work by putting up their name and picture. One of my students is just like your bro…I had to specifically ask for a picture with him wearing a shirt! Just cracks me up!
