Postcards to ATL: Food

Now that I’m back in good, ‘ol Atlanta, all I can think of are all the glorious food I ate in Asia every single day. Funny, I didn’t gain a single pound. Why? Food in Asia is not “hormonized” unlike in the western world. Which is why Asians are skinny.

Yeah, I invented the word. Hormonized. Use it. I’m hoping it’ll get into the dictionary one day.

Now allow me to whet your appetite with these photos…
