When in Rome?

Mark Zuckerberg is getting a lot of flack for chowing on some Mickey D’s with his new bride in Rome, where there certainly isn’t a shortage of more exciting culinary experiences…

I don’t roll my eyes to this at all.  I think it’s crazy that just because someone has a net worth in the billions, people are going to expect that he’ll wear, use, consume only the finest and most expensive.  That he can’t enjoy more simple things. 

Now, I’m not a billionaire, but just because I can afford more sophisticated eats than let’s say…. boxed macaroni and cheese does not mean I’ll turn my nose up at the quick and simple meal once in a while.  I’ll even throw some diced up, pan-fried hot dogs in the mix a la trailer park dinner!  Hebrew Nationals, of course… they’re my favorite 😉  It’s actually what I had for lunch today.  I am not ashamed to share this with you.  Though I’m not sure if my sister-in-law would want me to tell anyone that she prepared and shared the nostalgically tasty meal with me (the hot dogs were my special request, LOL… Thanks Jen!).  Sometimes the simplest just hits the spot. 

Give Mr. and Mrs. Z a break.  Look at how adorable they are together… how can you be mad at that?
