24 June 2006

Sampling: I made some home made choclate ice cream last night. The recipie was taken from something I copied off the internet. I lost the actual recipie and kind of invented/remembered the recipie...

Breakfast: Lean Cuisine lemongrass chicken (roasted chicken tenderloins in lemongrass-coconut sauce, brown rice and vegeatbles (I wasn't bothered by the "coconut", which I didn't know about until I typed in this note...)

Snack: Cheese-its and most of a DP.

Lunch: Healthy Choice Chicken Parmigiana Breaded Chicken Breast with Tomato Sauce and Cheese, Fettuccini Pasta and Broccoli Quite good!

23 June 2006

Breakfast: Lean Cuisine Swedish Meatballs with pasta in a savory gravy and a DP and a cup of coffee...

Snack: Three banannas (not too ripe), a DP and another cup of coffee.Lunch: At Wendy's: Half pound "classic" hamberger, with baked potatoe, Diet Coke.

Dinner: A salad from 14th Street Dillions and water. My blood sugar was 116 two hours after I finished eating so I guess these salads are good for me. I'm just getting so tired of eatting them...

22 June 2006

Breakfast: Two big hotdogs boiled with white hominy and two DP. It tasted good going down and definitely settled in and let me know it was there for the rest of the morning...

Lunch: At the Boot Hill Museum dining room: a briskey samwhich, fries and a Diet Pepsi. It was quite good...

Dinner: A "14th Street Dillions" salad my wife made and a bottle of "Miller Genuine Draft" (cold filtered) beer. None of that Pisswiser^* or Coors and definitely none of that "lite beer" crap!!!
^{* How could a company which makes the magnificant Michelob create Pissweister -er- Budweiser and the perverted "Michelob Ultra"???}

21 June 2006

Breakfast: Spoon sized shredded wheat, two banannas, artifical sweetner, 2% milk and coffee.

Snack: A bag of those 50¢ crackers from the machine in the office "kitchen".

Lunch: Chicken Fried Chicken, mashed potatoes with white gravy, roll and cottage cheese. The waitress said they had corn for the veggie so I ordered the CFC; they had green beans. I asked her to replace the green beans with cottage cheese; she gave the plate to another diner and brought me what I wanted. She was a good waitress, who provided Good Service! I told her this in front of Mike Casey's office manager (who was working the till).

20 June 2006

Breakfast: Aunt Jamami pancakes, low cal syrup and low cal margarine and a couple of cups coffee...

Lunch: "Stouffer's LeanCuisine baked chicken chicken tenerloins with cornbread stuffing & whipped potatoes" I liked it. Too bad I was hungry again less than 10 minutes after finishing. I'll just have to distract myself...

Dinner: Three small Pan fried sound steaks (I picked on appearance and the price reduction from just over ^$8 to just over ^$5 - my wife said "you got very tender meat". It was an accident...), boiled corn, boiled carrots and here we split: Kathie had the left over rice pilof and I had the left over "store bought" mashed potatoes. We both liked ouor choices. My drink of choice was cold water...

I had bought some melons for desert but neither of us "had enough room" for them. So, we skipped it...

Two hours after finishing eating, I tested my blood sugar level: it was 174. This is high but not too high given I'd eaten corn and mashed potatoes. A confirmaton this wasn't too high is the simple fact I slept through the night without having to get up even once to pea. Since post-bedtime urination is natures way of dumping excess sugar, I can only conclude the carrots and steak trumped the corn and mashed potatoes (if that is possible...) !

19 June 2006

Breakfast: cream of wheat, 2 pieces of dry toast and coffe (several cups...)
Lunch: homemade glop: leftover rice pilof, canned chicken, brocolli flowers and DP.

Lunch: Unnoted...

Dinner: salad (good for me), various toppings (not so good for me) and no sugar cooked Choclate Pudding (sort of good for me) with choclate chips - many choclate chips - add (not so good for me). So, how did I do scorewise?

ADDENDUM or is it answer written on the 20th: Hummm, got a 121 on the blood sugar reading the next morning after a 13 (or so) hour fast.

Ouch!!! On the one hand, this isn't going to help on the November 2006 A1C test but on the other hand, that is five (5!) months from now and plenty of time for me to be good...

18 June 2006

Breakfast: Aunt Jamama pancakes and sausage and a DP (we were still out of coffee at work).

Snack: Another bag of CHEEZE-ITs and my second (2^nd cup of coffee. (One of the two people with the key to the "coffee locker" was working and broke out a fresh can off ground coffee!)

Lunch: Healthy Choice Sweet Bourbon Steak Cooked Beef Strips in Bourbon Sauce, Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Vegetables and Peach Dessert (quite good!)

Snack: A microwaved slice of bullona, with mayo on it and a DP.

17 June 2006

Snack: A small piece of last night's roast beef. It tasted "OK". Last night, I pressure cooked/boiled a ^$9.09 roast. It didn't fully cook by dinner time (which was my fault) so I left it in the pressure cooker for another couple of hours; I wanted to get it well cooked! I asked "the wife" to put it away when it had fully cooled off and then had to go to bed around 8:30 pm (I get up at 4:15 am). She woke me up around 1:30 am and when she got back from the toilet I asked her "did you put the roast away?" Her reply was "oops! and then she trundled off to put the roast in the refrigerator. She was a little pissed that I was pissed off at her for forgetting this.

I told her I wasn't anger but I guess I still am...

Breakfast: Aunt Jamami pancakes and sausage, some low sugar syrup and margarine and a DP. :(Couldn't have any coffee as we're out; one person who could resupply is in Topeka and the other has today off but will be in tomorrow morning...) Maybe I'll be reduced to stealing a bag of black tea from an old box in the office kitchen...

Snack#2: I'm hungry; I'm going to have a Sunshine CHEEZ-IT Baked Snack Crackers.

Lunch: Applebys where I had the 9 oz sirlon steak, garlic mashed potatoes, somewhat crispy boiled brocolli flowers (with a hint of cheese and crotons on them) and glasses of Diet Pepsi. Since this was a date - and meant to be a pleasant occasion! - I ordered a desert for Kathie and me. She said she didn't want any but I've only known her for 31 years and figured she like it.

She did...
Let's see, how would I compare this "chain" with the "hometown made restraunt owned and operated by a 'local boy'?"

1. The food was comparable but
2. the service was much better!

Based on that, you can see why my wife said about Casey's "we won't be going back there for dinner for a while!" Amen to that!

I wrote a bit of a diabribe about the service last time we were there...

Dinner: We went to the Pratt Lions Club 85^th Anniversary. The meal was roast beef, bar-b-qued beef, cheedar cheese mashed potatoes with chunks, a hamberger bun and choclate cake with choclate frosting. It was really quite good!

As an aside: I believe it was eating the pieces of "bad" roast beef that gave me a serious case of diarehia (literally the Hershey drips) and I'm going to wait a few days before discretely dumping the left over roast beef under the trees in the neighbor's yard. (It is a vacant house.) It might cause trouble for the neighborhood stray dog's but it seems better than shit canning or dropping it through the sink garbage shredder...

16 June 2006

Breakfast: Cream of Wheat and 2 cups of coffee.
___Snack: Handful of stale cashews.
___Lunch: Healthy Choice Chicken Brocolli Alfredo Chicken Breast and Broccoli in Alfredo Sauce with Fettuccini Pasta
__Dinner: Roast beef, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn and boiled brocolli flowers. Water?

I worked 2.5 hours overtime so I didn't get away from the office until 3:30 pm! This meant that the roast I bought from Kerby's Beef was frozen. So, when I got home, I put it in the microwave to thaw. (I set it for 20% for 33 minutes 33 seconds) and left to do some running around. "Running around" meant taking 2 books and a music DVD (Gershwin music) back to the library and then go to the 14th Street Dillions for premade mashed potatoes, brocolli and something to take for lunch tomorrow. (I had forgotten that I still have a Healthy Choice TV in the freezer). Going to the library turned out to be better than I thought!

The book I thought was "intra-libtrary loan" was actually one the library had bought! I was allowed to renew it!

I decided I needed some nice soft and easy to listen to music: I checked out "The Best of Alice Cooper"! Ok, so it's not "easy listening" but then I'm not in the mood for easy listening...

Finally! I've got a copy of "Official Star Trek Cooking Manual"!

Back in 1978, I bought a copy of the OFFICIAL STAR TREK™ Cooking Manual. Then, a college friend visited (in the mid 1980s) and we haven't seen the book since...

So, I checked it out via intra-library loan. The only library that seems to have this book is the Klamath Falls, Oregon, library. I know because I checked it out three times. I tried buying a copy of this book but the cheapest I could find was a used book in the $40 - $50 range. I didn't buy it then...

Since then, the general range of prices seems to be in the $80+ range. I didn't buy...

Fortunately, I had left a "email me when the book arrives" notice with Powell's Books of Portland. I read the email the day after it was sent and bought that copy immediately. Boy, am I happy!

My copy cost me just under $15 and the postage was about $3⁵⁰. No, I didn't pay Kansas state sales tax; I bought this book from an Oregon "vendor". It seems to me that since I have to pay sales tax when I buy in Kansas, it is only fair that I pay the sales tax levied at the point of sale. The point of sale was not in Kansas...

15 June 2006

Breakfast: spoon sized shredded wheat with 2% milk and Splenda.

Snack: A Bar S Beef Jumbo Jumbos - a quarter pound hot dog - with ketchup and mustard and a DP.

Lunch: From Sonic, a hamberger, fries and a Diet Pepsi. After I got home, I ate a very small amount of the choclate pudding I cooked up yesterday.

Dinner: Salad and maybe a ¹/₂ cup of left over homemade choclate pudding. It was fine with milk and some vinilla extract added...

choclate pudding

I found a Chocolate Pudding recipe in a cookbook I browsed through at Hastings. I modified this recipe to:

1/4 cup sugar
1/6 cup cocoa
1.5 tablespoons flour (I didn't have any corn starch)
1 cup 2% milk (I didn't have any regular milk or light cream)
1/4 cup chocolate chips (actually I put in a handful of dark
chocolate chips)
½ teaspoon vanilla extract (I actually "measured" this by eye
and don't know how much went in...

I mixed the solid ingredients and added half the milk. Whilst whisking briskly, I warmed this mixture on the stove and finally added the rest of the milk. When it started boiling, I poured in the chocolate chips and stirred well, letting the pudding cook for a minute or so. Then, it was let the pudding cool off.

It is a somewhat bitter pudding and not like the commercial (mix) version. I suspect it'll be an acquired taste...

14 June 2006 (Casey's Cowtown times Two!)

Breakfast: The last of the left over spegethi and a DP and a cup of coffee.

Office Meeting: A cup of very bad coffee and three (over the course of the morning) sugar coated donuts (my boss advertised them as "dognuts")

Lunch: Chicken fried chicken, mashed potatoes with white gravy, corn and a couple of Diet Pepsis at Casey's Cowtown...

Dinner: We went to Casey's Cowtown for dinner; we had decided not to go to Montana Mike's or Arby's. I'm thinking this was a mistake! The food was good but the kitchen service sucked!

______

We were seated with no problem. The waitress seemed very young and very new to waiting and didn't seem to know what she was doing. Kathie asked for a wine list and the waitress trundled off to get it. I looked towards where she'd gone and looked at Kathie and said in a wry voice "I guess I'll ask for water when she returns."
______The girl got back and gave Kathie the wine list; Kathie had changed her mind and asked for a "frozen Margarietta". The girl nodded and left. We began waiting...
______After about five (5!) minutes, Kathie flagged down a different waitress and asked about her frozen Margarietta. This woman (yes, a competient woman!) brought the frozen Margarietta back in under two minutes.
______Our waitress returned and asked what I wanted. I asked for ice water with leomn juice and she said she could bring ice water with a couple of chunkds of lemon. It was only a couple of minutes before she brought our water.
______We ordered dinner: Kathie wanted a nice samwhich and I ordered Motorella sticks as an appetizer. Then, I ordered the Filet Mineon{sp} medium with French dressing. She grabbed the menu to look this up.
______I opened the menu and after a few seconds, pointed to the description of what I wanted. She then asked who I wanted my steak; I said "medium". She asked what kind of potatoe I wanted; I said "baked with everything on it". Finally, she asked the kind of salad dressing I wanted; I said "French".
______The cheese sticks came and were find; Kathie had ordered Ranch dressing.
______Then, "our girl" showed up with both main courses. I looked at her and made an exageriated shrugging motion. She looked beyond confused, she looked lost. She couldn't figure out what my problem was!
______I said "the salad is supposed to come first".
______She brought the salad. I said "I asked for baked potatoe with everything on it." She pointed at my potatoe and said "but you've got butter on it!" I replied "I put the butter from the roll on the potatoe. I'd like some butter and sour cream, please."
______She brought both.
______The meal was fine. The waitress told us she simply brought out what the kitchen put up. So, I told her a couple of times that I didn't hold it against her; the kitchen had screwed up!"
______We gave the girl a nice tip; she had tried and shouldn't be punished for the kitchen staff fucking up!
______I would have told all this to Mike Casey but althought he was there and escorted some folks to a table, he didn't come around. Mike's restraunt has nice food but they have a continual problem with service.
______Like most places in dear ol' Dodge, the quality of the waitress/waiters simply isn't what it should be! To be blunt, it is often medictre and is unfortunately often piss poor at Mike Casey's Cowtown! There is a reason where seldom go to Mike's for a nice dinner date and the service is exactly that!
______Yes, I said "date". I learned a couple of decades that taking me wife out on dates was even more important after we married than before!

13 June 2006

Breakfast: left over roast beef and a couple of slices of bread (to soak up the juices; as gravy goes, this was not one of my successes...)

Lunch: A salad from Dillions...

Dinner: Healthy Choice Beef Pot Roast with Gravy, Carrots, Roasted Potatoes and Apple Raisin Crisp.

11 June 2006

Breakfast: Aunt Jamima pancakes with sausage, coffee.

Lunch: Two very large hotdogs and some fretos, plus a couple of DP.

Dinner: An apple as an apple-tizer (OK, appetizer) and a Healthy Choice Familiar Favorites: Cheesy Chicken with Rice (Chicken with Rice, Cheese Sauce, Broccoli and Carrots)

This is my first time with this meal (my wife picked it out for me) and I liked it! Unfortunately, I was still hungry after eatting so this means two things:

1. I've gotten my appete back after being so sick last week and
2. this is a low cal meals because it is rather skimpy...

I suspect that I'll eat my other apple immediately after testing my blood sugar at 9:37 pm and will probably have a snack when I get home...I always do anyway...

I did eat that other apple and a small amount of popped corn and some ice water.

10 June 2006

About 330 am, a cup of hot choclate.

Breakfast: sleep through it...

Lunch: A hot dog bun with peanut butter and two hard soft-boiled eggs, coffee and a couple of cans DP.

I was up nearly all night whilst walking in the 2006 "Relay Walk For Life. An hour or so after drinking the chocklate, I was back home, showered and in bed. Then, I had to get up for painkillers and Ben Gay.

Dinner: Homemade spegetti sauce over (non)-whole wheat noodles, a beer (MGD), a couple of pieces of garlic toast. I was overboiling some roast beef for useage today and tomorrow.

There apparently must have been too much grease in it because I kept waking up with fat infected stomach juices boiling up; I drank some "pink" and that took care of that!!!

9 June 2006

Breakfast: SOS (an oversalted version) and a DP...

Lunch: Healthy Choice (I wish I could remember which, I'm writing this after the fact...)

Dinner: Two slices of hamberger pizza and a homemade tacco.

A DP and a lot of water...

8 June 2006

I was remiss in my bloging/food diary keeping and forgot to write down what I ate. 'Tis no big deal as it wasn't anything different from tghe normal...

Three great bars gone and a couple of "Long Island Ice Tea" recipies...

_____My wife and I were stationed (in the Navy) on Guam during the 1980s. Like many others, wecruised around the island and checked out various bars. (When you live on an island 35 mileslong and 8 miles at it's widest, you find the good bars and restaurants quickly!) We were quitefond of Achung Bay Marina, Barney's Beach Hut and the Trench Room. All are gone.
_____I say all are gone because I think the owner of the "Achung Bay Marina" probably angeredenough of his neighbors that he went out of business. "Barney's Beach Hut" was destroyed by a typhoon (I've asked the "Pacific Daily News" - theGuam Newspaper - for information on this.).
_____"The Trench Room" was the Officer's Club on the Naval Air Station, Agana, Guam (NASAgana). This fine club was put out of business when the US Armed Forces were gutted in themid 1990s; the "Trench Room" was shut down when NAS Agana was "dis-established".
_____Around 1992, flush with the joy of posting to my first BBS (Bulletin Board System), I wrote thebartenders at both Barney's and the Trench Room for recipes. The bartenders sent me theserecipes. I don't know where they got them from and strongly suspect they evolved in the traditionof read a recipe and change it to suit your customers. While I like these drinks, I haven't madethem (either of them) since 1989 due to the cost (both financial and metabolic!).

"Long Island Ice Teas” (two recipes): These are stealth drinks by the way!

Achung Bay Marina

1 oz Vodka
1 oz Gin
1 oz Light Rum
1 oz Tequila
1 oz Scotch or
1 oz Cuiacoa /

Pour over ice and top off with Pepsi or Coke

Trench Room
Naval Air Station, Agana, Guam

1/2 oz Gin
1/2 oz White Rum
1/2 oz Vodka
1/2 oz Triple Sec
1/2 Tequila

Lemon Twist
Sweet and Sour Mix
Pour over ice and top off with Pepsi or Coke

In the Achung Bay Marina recipe, you have your choice of either Scotch or Cuicoa!

I forgot to mention! When I wrote those bar tenders, I seem to recall getting their permission to reprint their recipies. (I think...)

7 June 2006

Breakfast: chicken alfredo on noodles...

Lunch: Chicken fried chicken, mashed potatoes with brown gravy, corn and a roll, plus two glasses Diet Pepsi (at Casey's, this being Wednesday and a Lion Club Meeting!)

Dinner: A TV dinner purporetedly with BarBQ sauce covered "pork", horrible mashed potatoes and corn...

It is almost enuf to make me consider a small glass of White Zin...

Mudslide (Barney's Beach Hut)

The difference between a Fairy Tale and a Sea Story is that Fairy Tales begin with "Once Upon A Time" and a Sea Story begins with "This Ain't No Shit". I'm going to start a true Sea Story as if it were a Fairy Tale as I fear that Barney's "ain't no more…

"Once upon a time", on the shores of the East Phillipines Sea, in Agana Guam, was a lovely Beach Bar called Barney's Beach Hut. There, for just under $12, you could any drink of your choice. It didn't matter if it was a coke or a Mudslide or water or Long Island Iced Tea. It was all the same price and came in a plastic toy bucket, complete with little plastic shover. Tis something you'd play in the sand with… However, after drinking something alcoholic (like the Mudslide recipied below) you probably didn't want to get off the Beach Chair. You just wanted to wait for the sundown (and the precious "Green Flash") and try to sober up enuf to drive home!)

The Mudslide recipe is tasty but sneaks up on you. I can't afford the cost [metabolic or cash] of the ingredients and haven't made a batch since 1989. (My Mother in Law tried some, liked it a lot and got shit faced on it! She didn't forgive me for years…)
in about ten years.

Mudslide (Barnie's Beach Hut)

1/2 oz Vodka
1/2 oz Bailey's Irish Cream
1/2 oz Kahlua

Add ice and blend until it looks like a slurry. This is a
sneaky kind of drink by the way.

62th Anniversary or 6 June 2006 and better service at Arbys'...)

Breakfast: I tried eating my left over salad from last night but it was too damn limp. So, I fried up the rest of the bacon and two eggs. Had those with a cup of coffee...

Lunch: An Arby's (single) Roast Beef Samwhich and a DP (from home). After lunch, I was still hungry. It also being a hot day and I was having cravings, I remembered having a McDonald's choclate milkshake several weeks ago. I remember thinking how good it was; that was quite a surprise since the last time I'd had one - two or three years ago - it was rather wretched. Well, today's McDonald's Choclate Milk Shake sucked!

It was not only too damn sweet but it left an acid taste...

I wonder what I saw in this shit a couple of weeks ago? I can only surmise that I got an inexperienced employee who actually made me a real milk shake. They probably fired him/her...

5 June 2006 (Arby's and Piss Poor Service...)

Breakfast: Aunt Jamami pancakes and sausage plus a cup of coffee.

This is exacely what I had yesterday but unlike yesterday, I had no trouble getting it down and in fact, an hour after eatting, I was hungry again! I think I'm over whatever made me sick...

Lunch: At Arby's with French Dip Samwhich, fries, a Diet Pepsi and piss poor service!

......At Arby's I ordered "the Number one, with drink and a large order of moterillo sticks instead of fries. Can you do that?" "Yes, sir." I got the order and took the sacks to Kathie (we were eatting at her office). I had the feeling the kid at Arbys had fucked up my order but I wasn't going to worry about it.
......I was wrong. He'd fucked up Kathie's order.
......She was pissed and insisted that I return to Arbys to get her motzerillo sticks; she wasn't going to wait till I was done with lunch!
......So, taking her car instead of Lumox (my 1984 Suburbon), I went back to Arbys. There was a very large croud of people waiting but I wasn't about to wait in line. I went to the side of the line and stated "I'd like to speak with a manager please!"
......She came over and I explained how I'd ordered the motzerillo sticks but not gotten them. I said I'd like to get them. She asked, "which register did you buy them at?" I pointed to the one closest to me. The kid behind the counter said "it was me". I respect the boy for having the courage to admit that. (He was still working at Arby's on 6 June 2006.)
......Another boy brought over the sticks, plopped them down on the counter in front of me and turned away.
......I said "I'd like some sauce, please."
......He plopped two containers in front of me and started to walk off.
......I said "This is carry out. Could I have a bag?"
......He asked the manager what I was talking about. She said something at amounted to "bag" and pointed him to them. The boy put a bag on the counter in front of me. He made no effort to bag the sticks.
......I did not attempt to get him to come back. (He was not working at Arby's on 6 June 2006.)
.....I was afraid he'd fuck up the sticks!
......So, I looked at the manager, she looked embarrassed and I packaged the sticks myself. She also gave me a $4.31 refund for my having to come back...
......I don't look gift horses in the mouth.

Dinner: An attempt at a Dillions salad but I couldn't get much down; my stomach is still "small" (I wish this would last...). So, I had a piece of a berry pie Kathie brought home with her and a beer (a MGD!).

At least, I got some vitimin Ethanol!

4 June 2006

Breakfast: An Aunt Jamima pancakes and sausage and a cup of coffee. I had a hard time getting it all down; no appatite.

Lunch: A Healthy Choice Roast Beef, mashed potatoes and gravy, plus a DP.

Shortly after lunch, still feeling ill, I called in sick to work. No big deal.

Dinner: My wife went to the store for her dinner and brought me (at my request) a couple of cans of Campbell's Cream of Chicken soup and oaster crackers. That was fine. Fortunately, I had very little appatite and it wasn't until just before going to bed (aroudn 9 pm) that I got some appitate back and ate some oaster crackers. Then, I had more chills and had to put an extra blanket on (on me that is, my wife obviously wasn't having chills).

3 June 2006 (and barfing, etc...)

Breakfast: peanut butter samwhich (1 slice whole wheat bread) and a cup of coffee.

Snack: At the "Relay For Life" Building, after I turned in our team's forms, several cups of orange juice, a cup of coffee and some casserol consisting of a lot of shredded spuds, sausage, cheddar cheese and a sauce.

Lunch: Some low cal lassonia.

Dinner; Healthy Choice, Beef Tips Portobello with Gravy, Mashed Potatoes, Vegetables and Apple Cherry Crisp. This was good but I won't repeat buying it. There is the:

1. Cherry in the Apple Cherry Crisp and
2. I'd sort of overlooked the fact that "Portobello" is a type of mushroom...

I don't know what I ate but something isn't agreeing with me. I've had progressively worst diaherri since I ate some popcorn after dinner. "Three times a charm" or so they say but from the "rumbling in the belly", I don't think I can expect only three visits to the throne. Also, there is this increasing nausea and the feeling that I'll be "blowing chunks" over the lawn before too long. I hope I don't take any rabbits unaware! We've had some "baby bunnies" around here lately and they are still getting their survival skills honed...

A few minuts after writing this, events escallated to a bit of vomiting...

Then, I spent a couple of hours at home sitting on the couch feeling miserable and occasionally trundling into the bathroom for more vomiting and diahria. Twice, I fertalized the lawn - vomit that is - (outside the fence), showered and went to bed with chills. Not a really good way to end the day...

2 June 2006

Breakfast: Oatmeal, piece of whole wheat toast with peanut butter, cup of coffee and a DP.

Lunch: Salad and Smart Ones Pepperoni Pizza Bistro Selections and a DP

1 June 2006

Breakfast:

Lunch: A & W Root Beer: quarter pounder with bacon, french fries and a diet root beer.

Dinner:
