Food Wars: The Battle of the Bears

Let me preface this story with explaining that when I met Papa Bear I had been a vegetarian for a good chunk of my life, but had recently started eating chicken and shrimp. Papa Bear on the other hand was Straight Outta Louisiana and ate the complete opposite. I mean like no vegetables steak and potatoes opposite. Just like with any other ups and downs in a relationship, we occasionally go through food wars. I am currently on strike.

What would YOU do?

Sickness: Ain't nobody got time for that!

It seems our relationship took a turning point after that weekend. In the course of boiling soup I think I became "the one". He liked it and he put a ring on it.
