Today, on the phone with Mom, she said: “You need to eat more.”
Any woman who has grown up FatGirl knows how shocking this suggestion was. I almost fell over on Walnut Street.
She eventually followed it up with “you should start eating meat. Or at least fish. You don’t get enough protein, it’ll give you more energy.” Eh, I’m going to stick with the shocking originality of the first one. The thought!
I eat plenty, of course. But I just find it funny that, at age 26, this is the first time I can recall my mom being the typical Jewish mother and pushing food on me.
