Food and Workout Journal for January 22, 2008

6:20 a.m.: 1 cup OHs! Honey Graham cereal with 1/2 cup 2% milk, 1 piece cinnamon raisin toast with little bit of butter, small glass OJ
12:00 p.m.: Ham, cheese, and mustard on wheat bun, 6 honey-wheat pretzel sticks, 2 mint "Oreos," diet coke

5:00 p.m.: 1 mini York Peppermint Patty

6:15 p.m.: Delmonico's Steak House with DH and "BP" (our financial planner):
According to the menu, I had this salad: ORGANIC BIBB ~ HYDROPONIC* BIBB LETTUCE, RED ONION, LEMON VINAIGRETTE, PINE NUTS
And this entree: PAN-ROASTED CHILEAN SEA BASS ~ COLDWATER FILLET, RED PEPPER COULIS, CAVATELLI WITH LUMP CRAB, ASPARAGUS TIPS & BOURSIN CREAM
The reality is, I had a salad, a piece of fish, and pasta. I'm sure it was more fattening than it sounds. I also had three small chunks of bread with herb butter. I fought the urge to have a Coke and dessert (that chocolate flourless tart was calling my name...screaming it....but I resisted). The meal was really very good. I just laugh to myself about the pretension.
*By the way, if you are wondering what "Hydroponic" means, it's the
cultivation of plants in nutrient solution rather than in soil. I'm not sure why that needs to be described on the menu, but there you have it. Full disclosure.

So I take it by your sarcasm that the food left a little to be desired? Good job on resisting that flourless chocolate cake. That's a toughie!

Actually, the food was really very good. Especially since we weren't footing the bill! I just find food descriptions like this hilarious.
