Election Day!

I love Election Day! In an election year, I try to watch all of the debates and I try to read as much as I can about all of the propositions. Unfortunately,  I have grown more and more cynical the older I get, but I still try to be optimistic about the future of our country. Back to Patti's plate.......I usually order pizza. The second I get home on election night, I turn the TV on and I watch the results all night long. Someone orders pizza delivery, and I mindlessly eat, usually caring more about if I get a corner piece than who actually wins. (That's a little exaggeration; but you are correct, Vanessa, not much.) Anyhow, tonight was different. I started a new tradition. I defrosted White Roughy fish fillets from Trader Joe's and decorated them with blueberries and red peppers. I added a green salad and though I could definitely eat more, I am happy with the portion that I received. Hmmmmm. I wonder if that is what our entire country is thinking right now.

Nice post, but I'd rather eat the boring salad. Blueberries and fish, not so much. Btw, I had pizza last night...sausage and rapini. Yum!

Vicky,
Don't knock it till you try it. Seriously, I did it for aesthetic effect, but I ate it for lunch again today. After the blueberries had permeated the fish, it was delicious. It's like cherries with duck. There is a sweet fruity flavor that works really well. I may eat it again for dinner!
