    I was having dinner one night with my sister and two nieces, who were (at the time) about 3 and 1. Nikki (my sister) was encouraging Avery, the older girl, to please "eat your pink meatsies!" I couldn't help but giggle...MEATSIES??! I love it! Nikki explained that Avery would only eat chicken, and refused to eat any other types of meat. So Nikki was getting creative in trying to name it other things. She hoped that by not calling meat 'chicken', 'beef', etc. she might encourage the girl to think that meat was one food class all on its own, so she started calling ALL meat 'meatsies'...and there were white meatsies, and pink meatsies.

    The word just totally tickled me, so later that night when we were playing with the Wii at a family gathering, I named my avatar 'Meatsies' and it's stuck ever since. It's kind of appropriate, too, because I am not a big meat eater. I stopped eating red meat from the age of about 9 until I was about 18. I'm really picky about it now.

    I am from Chicago, and I am the child and sibling of chefs. They love to eat and cook, and I was their taste tester. We would travel all over the world just to try new foods. I remember once flying to Paris for 2 days, just to have mussels in white wine. Now I try all the new restaurants that come to Chicago. I try all cuisines, with no preconceived notions. You tell me we are having tripe in a garlic sauce for dinner and I am down to try it! Injera and lamb....sounds good to me. Preserved duck egg and rice....I am all over it!

    Mine is my first name, middle initial and then the first 3 letters of my last name. My last name has an inappropriate word in it lol so I don't ever post all of it.

    Qatsi - because "Koyaanisqatsi" was already taken.

    The shorter name is more appropriate anyway - "Koyaanisqatsi" is a Hopi word for "life out of balance", and "Qatsi" is simply "life". Joining this site has helped me with getting my life IN balance.
