Toe Up.
I started reading Jeremiah to find encouragement in his faithful serving in fruitless ministry. Instead, I am getting torn to shreds in seeing Israel's apathy and faithlessness toward God. I am more like Israel. I am the worst.

Newport Food Adventures
On Wednesdays I only have class from 10-11am this quarter. The past couple of weeks I've been staying in the library or going to starbucks. Today I thought I'd change things up and go to Tapioca Express. So I went, got a table and read for an hour (I'm reading "How to Win the Nobel Prize: An Unexpected Life in Science" for extra credit in mirco. I love it. It is so interesting! So nerdy...).
Anyway, I looked out the window and it was such a nice day today! We've been having a lot of those down here. I decided it was too nice to waste sitting inside (also, last week when I was at home Kaity commented on how pale I was...). I yelped a place to grab lunch in Newport and took a drive down PCH.
Dude man, I have been wasting my time in Newport! It's wonderful! So, to help me better appreciate this lovely place I live in I have decided to make Wednesdays (maybe not every Wednesday) "Food Adventure Days". Cheap good food!
Today, I went to Big Belly Deli (http://www.yelp.com/biz/big-belly-deli-newport-beach). I think I am in love. It has deli in the title but really the set up is more like a dive bar and nothing like a deli at all. I got the Rajun Cajun sandwich, which is technically breaking my food restriction diet of being a vegetarian, but let's be real-- a girl has got to have her some meat!!!
I got it to go because I didn't want to look all lame eating alone (I am lame). The portion is relatively smaller compared to Qwick Korner (also excellent, but not in Newport.) but looks can be deceiving. I am really full.
Price wise you're looking at spending a little over $10 if you get a drink (honestly...this sandwich would be excellent with a little drankk). It's right off the beach. The only thing is that parking is limited to street parking which could get a little tricky, but since I went in the middle of the day it was fine. I want to go back and try their pizza. Someone join me!

The Rajun Cajun has "spicy chicken and sausage sauteed with red onion and bell peppers with melted jalapeno jack cheese and Tabasco ranch". Delicious!
All the sandwiches come a side option of macarroni salad, baked beans, cole slaw, or potato salad. I got the coleslaw. I'm not a huge fan of coleslaw in general and I'm not really sure why I ordered it. But it was pretty good. Not super mayonaisey and I think there was mustard in it.I got it to go because I didn't want to look all lame eating alone (I am lame).
