Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts #75
Welcome to Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts, an original weekly meme hosted here at (un)Conventional Bookviews. So many of the books I read have food or drinks in them, some I’d love to try, and others I’d never ever want to taste… and I thought it could be interesting and fun to share some food and / or drink quotes… If you want to participate, you can grab my logo if you’d like, or you can make your own, but please link back to me in your own post.
The idea of Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts is to share a quote with food or drinks that showed up in a recent read, as well as if it’s something you think you’d like or not. Please share the title of the book it happened in, as well as the character who ate or drank the special little something you discovered between the pages of a good read. Please link up beneath, and visit other bloggers who are participating in Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts as well.
Because it had so many delicious quotes that work for Hungry Hearts, I’m sharing another one from Rock Wedding this week. In this part of the story, Abe and Sarah are waiting for some news, and after they cleaned her already clean house, Abe thought he needed to distract her in a different way…
My Hungry Hearts quote:
“How about you make those egg-and-spinach things for lunch? I’ve got a craving for them.”
Her eyes lit up. “I think I have everything I need to whip up a batch. Refusing to neurotically check the phone in her pocket for missed calls, Sarah concentrated on cooking the frittatas. They weren’t difficult to make, but she took precise care with every one of the steps, from blanching the spinach, to setting the oven to exactly the right temperature.
When Abe came into the kitchen a half hour later, having stowed the cleaning supplies and washed up, she pointed to the table where she’d just put a jug of fresh lemonade and a glass.
Thanks for stopping by today, I look forward to reading your Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts quote. Have a terrific Thursday and don’t forget to link up.
Yum! I love those “egg and spinach” things. My quote has breakfast items, too. Thanks for sharing….and for hosting.
LOL me, too Laurel-Rain! I wish there had been a bit more details as to what she put in them to make them… I’m going to have to google – so I can make my own 🙂
There seems to be a whole lot of egg consumption in this book, which I totally get. Any time I’m too lazy to put together a full meal, I just throw an egg on top of something and boom, dinner.
True. And I totally agree, Mia! Eggs can completely change left-overs into a new meal 🙂
I have to admit, it’s actually the fresh lemonade that sounds the best to me right now! haha
Fresh lemonade, a cold soft-drink, a glass of water, an ice-cold beer… I agree! We really need to be careful and stay hydrated these days, too.

I love frittattas, they’re so easy to make plus they’re so delish!

Frittatas sound good. I am definitely hungry. One of these days I am going to participate in this.
