Street food week one and the sixth state

Today I started week one of my street food adventures with a trip to my favorite food truck so far, marination. I ordered my regulars--a pulled pork slider. Their pork is so juicy and spiced just right. Only problem was that mine was piled so high that the bread and a lot of the veggies toppled over onto the ground. :). I was more successful with my kimchi quesadilla which is the perfect mix of pork cheese kimchi and spicy sauce. It sounds a bit odd, but it is more than a bit delicious.

So on another note this gay pride weekend is definitely one to celebrate with New York becoming the sixth state to allow gay marriage. It doubled the amount of people in this country who can have a legal same sex marriage. More remarkably is that it happened in a republican controlled state senate thanks to the votes of four republican senators. This is the kind of thing that shows that change is really happening. It's a remarkable victory. I only hope the 7th, 8th, 9th state and so on will soon follow. Hopefully it will happen on the west coast soon. Happy Pride weekend to one and all!
