Borrowed today’s post title from my brother, W., who is, by far, the biggest nerd I know.
He sent me these quirky food tidbits. Please hold on to your nerd hats. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Second, they study how FRACTALS ARE FORMED IN NATURAL FOOD, like in this ROMANESCO BROCCOLI:
Don’t get me started on the FRACTAL PIZZA.
I wonder what Martha Stewart would say.
And my brother should really, er, pull the reigns on the nerd horse. Heehee. He is quite like the Dexter to my Deedee!
