 Hi guys, My name is Maiya Zwerling and I am from Portland Oregon. I am very much looking forward to this forum discussion as I have done a lot of these in the past with my other classes. So, to get to the real business. As I discussed earlier today in class, if I had to choose a favorite food (although I don't like to, don't want to play favorites), I would say steak is my favorite food. There is two reasons that make this choice so uniquely me besides the fact that I crave a juicy steak regularly. To begin, I am from a family of hard workers with a distaste of cooking. As a family, we ordered in or went out for most meals. Therefore, the meal I would always choose when I was out on the town was a New York steak (or maybe a filet if at a nice dinner). That's how my family relates together and that is the kind of food that makes me feel at home. In addition, for some reason I always get asked the question, "are you a veggie?!". After seeing that this is a regular question, I am almost proud of the fact that I don't give in to other's expectations of me. I like what I like regardless of how I dress or how I act. And I am proud of it!

So here's to a sirloin steak. Hopefully I'll be meeting up with you soon!
