Rome 13: Spinach

Spinachby Red Wolf

"Spike," Dawn whispered in his ear. "I don't like spinach." She'd been quite worried when she'd heard Wolf raving about the Turkish pizza that included spinach as its main topping.

"Pides tend to be a lot smaller than pizzas, so Wolf will get lots of different kinds. There'll be eggplant and fetta." Dawn wasn't looking any more pleased at this revelation, so he put her out of her misery. "I'm sure there'll be meat ones too."

"Okay, as long as there's something familiar to fall back on."

"But don't forget, everything tastes good when you put it on a pizza."

Damn it! Hungry — again. I have to stop reading these in the morning when I have to wait an hour after my meds before I can even nibble on something. Spinach on pizza sounds delicious to me, but hey, Dawn's got her meatzza to fall back on and that sounds good too.

As much of a carnivore as I am, I have to go for the vegetarian pides every time. They contain everything I don't like and yet taste so good.

Must find pide place near work. I need a spinach pide — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:20 AEST | #

so true. I bet Spike would taste good on anything... — via LiveJournal — posted by Pheral at 27.09.2004 19:21 AEST | #

Of course he would — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:21 AEST | #

From a girl who eats salami and peanut butter sandwiches, you think she'd have more of a culinary sense of adventure. But hey, if she's not eating it, send it my way; sounds absolutely delicious. >_> — via LiveJournal — posted by Radia at 27.09.2004 19:22 AEST | #

Yeah, but Dawn's experimental cooking leans more towards crap and junk food than real food. Those green leafy things can be scary — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:23 AEST | #

Hee! Dawn is a picky eater? The girl who made peanut-butter-and-banana quesadillas?

Well, actually, I can't really say anything. When I was little, I used to want ketchup on everything! I grew out of that!

Very cute and clever take on the challenge! — via LiveJournal — posted by Jessica at 27.09.2004 19:23 AEST | #

Dawn's weird food thing was more mixing the familiar than true experimenting. There was no mention of scary alien objects like spinach or eggplant — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:24 AEST | #

Very good point! — via LiveJournal — posted by Jessica at 27.09.2004 19:24 AEST | #

I soooo agree with that line about everything tasting good on a pizza. Hmm.. yum — via LiveJournal — posted by Vixen at 27.09.2004 19:26 AEST | #

If you get the chance, give a pide a shot. Similar to a pizza, but so much better. You may need to track down a Lebanese or Turkish restaurant, the family type deal rather than the real swank establishment, in your area — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:26 AEST | #

Man, you're just trying to make your readers go out and splurge on local restaurants, aren't you?

Very cute interaction between Spike and Dawn — via LiveJournal — posted by Elizabeth Culmer at 27.09.2004 19:27 AEST | #

I get a retainer from the local restaurants, but don't tell anyone (if only).

Not that it would do any good as nobody reading this lives in Sydney, if they did, I would relocate the story here and name the eateries — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:27 AEST | #

Well, I've never had spinach on pizza before, but you make it sound appetizing — like it's something I should definitely try. *laughs* — via LiveJournal — posted by Chessie at 27.09.2004 19:42 AEST | #

A pide is slightly different to a pizza. They're smaller and have fewer toppings, but they taste amazing. Worth checking out if there are any Lebanese or Turkish restaurants in your area — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:43 AEST | #

Very lighthearted and entertaining. (I have a strange sort of sadness because I no longer share Dawn's name) — via LiveJournal — posted by jetis at 27.09.2004 19:48 AEST | #

I kind of miss seeing your Dawn icons too — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 27.09.2004 19:48 AEST | #
