Day Two Hundred Fifty Nine 2013

Thanks again, sisters (and your families), for the Outback gift card you gave us on our 40th anniversary. We used it once, back when we first got it, and it was so generous that it still had plenty on it for another great meal. We decided to use it this evening, because after a week of being on a Slim Fast for breakfast and lunch kick and Subway for supper, we were in the mood for some real food. I didn’t particularly want broccoli, but I figured it would be a healthier choice than the sweet potato fries [I was amazed by my self control ~ those fries are pretty awesome]. The meal was such a nice treat, and we really do appreciate round two of this yummy gift.

Day Two Hundred Twelve 2012

Sometimes doing a 365 blog (a picture a day for a year) can be a real pain when it gets to be late in the day and you suddenly realize you haven’t taken the first picture all day. So it’s supper time (in the South we say supper, not dinner) and hubby Neil and I are sitting at Cheddar’s restaurant, because it sounded better than Subway. I’ve taken a bite or two of the delicious grilled salmon on my plate when I realize I haven’t taken any pictures today. Out comes the cell phone camera and click! Here is my picture for the day. Pretty lame, I guess, but that’s how it goes sometimes. The salmon was awesome, as was the steamed broccoli. And the garlic mashed potatoes. We were in and out within thirty minutes, which must be a record for Cheddar’s. If that was the case all the time, we’d eat there more often.
