• passing. itemry.

  I was bade go shopping. – you know I found a kitchen product long before I found fashion .

  I came DAMN close to getting one of those hot and cold mug/cup sets? until it hit me that I wasn’t reading the concept staring me in the face right…. I was?  thinking it was two  either way uses…der. it said cold and hot ONE straw.  gee george, no one shares in this world straws  der.  just in case you want to know how long that took me to figure out… 6 minutes and you can just shove it

  

  this wasn’t the color but

  what i did  select for purchase was 2 pairs dress slacks as I don’t otherwise own any anymore, socks black so I have more socks, strether type but not spandex swimming trucks and a fuzzy pair of sorta sleepwear sorta sweatpants type stuff … it’s going to cut down on the white,  a neat enough coffee mug of the insuated lidded kind and a bottle with in lid adjustable grinder  fullllll of peppercorns….. there was a pepper problem mentioned in my house.

   

  I know rather amusing but ending up mundane.  such is life.

   

   

  to avoid outright war, I picked a restaurant for my birthday dinner that was yesterday of course and closeby and whatevery one else in the whole car wanted and I abhore… buffet… country buffet in this case.  stop, the food’s generaly fine ..tasty enough at a decent value…. my abhorance for buffets stems from getting sick at a kansas breakfast buffet the first time I’d seen the modern buffet and also my first impression of what results….later in life I developed   and nursed this dislike of trough style eating because of the lack of service….hell even furrs cafeteria.. and it’s ilk like wyatt’s king’s table… they served ua.  it’s important to add that last smile.    but moving along the atom bombs for beffet dislike come with mostly snobbishness oh shoosh I’m just as much a picky-pants a the rest of you, I would like to feel special not demeaned and all the jokes are demeaning about those entering buffets and nothing nice really said so gee it adds up,  and of course now i’m truly uncomfortable eating anywhere where I am a second helping from the grave and that’s how it feels…damn that daniel defoe book…I’m not one to eat my death and me here with diabetes where I iterally easily at any buffet can. 

   

  now this is an example of what I mean…it allllways starts off all well intentioned

  roast beef – closer to medium  with lighting that adds a pink hue rather than it being succulently for some medium rare…thank GOD I like my food dead still most often.

  cabbage broccoli

  oh shit mashed potatoes.

  turkey gravy – aren’t I weird?

  what is that fried thing and mmm toast….I DIDN”T initiall touch toast but

  oh what the hell, I wanted toastadas and tomales this here enchilada will do..that pico de gallo looks festive (turns out its all crispy fresh mmm amazing even for buffet echiladas amazing)

   shit no more room round one done

   

  I skipped my glass of water trick to avoid overeating – courtesy of mom’s stint in weight watchers in the 80′s  you really wont have extra room hence the trick but beware icy beverages mean you’re slowing your digestion down and thus your nutrition making your body heat them back up….just a hint, nothing is free.

  someone got  a fried shrip leftover?

   

  next roundwaldorf salad carrot slaw, sliced pickled beets (still not a fan)
   and broccoli bacon salad… I simply wanted to try them…but the trough system is not designed for this so scoop the waste

  and a handfull of popcorn shrimp and a flish stick.

  carrot cake and iced tea.

   

  I don’t care for buffets because no matter what this is more than a fist full of food.  this is too much.  oh and for the record the lamest thing was the broccoli bacon salad even the crunchy ordinary fish stick was good and the ordinary steamed broccoli.  this isn’t uncommon I don’t like ever salad.  the waldorf was dynamite sugar death tempting good.

   

  as I said, I hate buffets… the problem lies within portion control and my lack of it never mind the other factors.

  beer champagne chatter   a fine evening was had, and I was wearing socks with sandles on purpose to the buffet stand out some…everyone else does
