Happy Tuesday! It’s time for another edition of Tuesday Topics. This week’s Tuesday Topic: Off Topic Tuesday. Remember to link-up with Kim and Zenaida and the bottom of this post. We decided to do a bit of a fun topic this week with Off Topic Tuesday. It doesn’t have to be running or fitness related – you can talk about your favorite pizza topping, favorite movie, favorite book, etc. Today I am going to talk about a bunch of my favorites across different topics.
Favorite Food: Pizza. If you know me, you know I consider pizza to be it’s own food group. It’s delicious and I love it in all forms – thin crust, NY style, deep dish, etc.
Favorite Pizza Topping: It’s a tie between spinach and pepperoni. I love both equally.
Favorite Fruit: Another tie – strawberries and watermelon. While I hate the summer heat, I love summer fruit. I’ll eat either one of these fruits daily for months while they are in season. Honorable mention also goes to blueberries and apples.
Favorite vegetable: Romaine lettuce. I usually eat a salad for lunch or dinner daily so I go through a lot of romaine lettuce. Every now and then I’ll try different greens mixed into my lettuce (spinach, etc), but the base is always romaine lettuce.
Favorite Ice Cream Flavor: Cookies and cream, especially with extra Oreo cookies crumble on top!
Favorite Color: Black. Not the most exciting selection, but black goes with everything and it’s slimming – so it’s a win-win 🙂
Favorite Movie: Without a doubt, it’s Forrest Gump. There are so many reasons why I love this movie. Yes, Tom Hanks is one of my favorite actors, but everything about this movie is just amazing. It was released over 30 years ago and I will still watch it whenever I come across it on TV.
Favorite Music Artist: Eminem. I know that his lyrics can be problematic but for me it’s the best music to listen to when I’m working out.
Favorite Board Game: I’m sure this is an unpopular opinion but I love Monopoly. Yes, i know the game can take a really long time to finish but that just means that you’re playing it correctly!
Favorite Sports Team: Anything New York. I’m a fan of the New York Giants, New York Knicks, New York Yankees, New York Liberty and New York Rangers.
Tell Me: What are some of your favorites?

Topic for next week – How will you celebrate Global Running Day on June 1?

Oh, this is a fun idea, Kim!
I need to watch Forrest Gump again, I haven’t seen it for ages. I think my favourite movie is “Love, Actually”, a UK film that is usually shown around Christmas time.
I’m with you with pizza in all shapes and sizes! With A LOT of mozzarella, of course.
kookyrunner says
Love Actually is such a great movie too!
Ditto on the pizza with extra cheese 🙂
Wendy says
It’s hard to narrow down my favorite movies to just one but I do love a good comedy–National Lampoon’s Vacation is probably one of my favorites. I also like Spinal Tap and Best in Show–I do love that snarky humor. We watched the original Top Gun a few weeks ago and altho it used to be one of my favorites, it was pretty cringey this time around! Very fun topics.
kookyrunner says
You can never go wrong with National Lampoon’s Vacation, lol. I’m going to watch the original Top Gun either tonight or tomorrow since we have a theme day around it at my OTF studio on Friday.
Kimberly Hatting says
Pepperoni pizza? Yes, indeed!!!!! Totally my favorite pizza topping (but I also concur with spinach ). I love all the summer fruit as well . We watch Forest Gump almost every time we have the family together…such a fun & history-rich piece of work!
kookyrunner says
I think that’s what i love so much about the movie – it spans so many decades which makes it super interesting.
Darlene says
Great topic. I may steal it.
Yes to Pizza.
Asparagus
Mangos
Coffee ice cream
The Beatles.
I have think about the others.
kookyrunner says
Coffee flavored ice cream is also delicious!
Chocolaterunsjudy says
Favorite food is probably a tie between sushi & chocolate.
I wouldn’t be able to pick just one veggie, either, because I really love veggies, but if I really had to it would probably be asparagus.
kookyrunner says
I’ve recently started eating asparagus more and really like it!
Virjinia @ With Purpose and Kindness says
Watermelon is the best summer food! I literally have watermelon flavored gel for summer training. It was the best! My mom grows them so we get SO many if her plants grow lol
kookyrunner says
I don’t usually like gels but a watermelon flavored one could change my mind!
Deborah Brooks says
I also love Monopoly! I also love strawberries and watermelon and also apples. My favorite veggies broccoli and I also eat a salad daily for lunch. As you know, I am all about the color pop w clothes
kookyrunner says
#teambrightcolors over here as well, especially for sneakers!
Michelle says
Yes to pizza all the time – I never tire of it. That and sushi and I’m a happy woman.
I’m also with you on the watermelon and strawberries! I’ve recently gotten into roasted brussels sprouts so I’d have to say they’re my current favorites.
So hard to pick a favorite movie – you’ve reminded me I haven’t seen Forrest Gump in ages. I need to watch it again!
kookyrunner says
Pizza once a week is needed to keep me happy, lol.
Roasted brussel sprouts are something I need to cook more often so thanks for the reminder.
Lisa @ TechChick Adventures says
We have a lot of the same favorites! I do admit I have never had spinach on pizza though. Dumb and Dumber is a movie I can watch again and again, so I guess that’s my favorite. It’s just so…dumb! I love a movie that makes me laugh. And Moose Tracks for ice cream. Yum!
kookyrunner says
I love to add spinach on pizza because it has no taste but still lets me get in a serving of veggies, lol.
Zenaida Arroyo says
Yes to pizza! A stuffed pizza with spinach is really good here. Next time you come here we’ll go. I also love Tom Hanks and have seen that movie many times too. While it is good, there are parts of it that make me sad. Still, I can watch it again.
kookyrunner says
I’ve never tried a stuffed pizza with spinach but that sounds great!
