16 October 2010

Good news: I had an A1C test done at the Health Faire today and my A1C had dropped from 8.5 to 8.3. So, I'm happy...

The parking lot of the first place we went to was crammed and we simply could not find a parking place. We went to the Dodge House...

Lunch: Went to Taco Bell and had a large (2x) steak Chalumpa {sic} and hard taco with a medium "Diet Coke" (just a little touch of Dr. Pooper Pepper in it...).  I have to admit, this was the best I've eaten at Taco Bell in well over a decade. It really was good! (Of course, "hunger is the best appetizer".)

Snack: didn't have one.  I sat down on the couch and started reading "Mission of Honor" by David Weber. My dog sat down next to my left leg and my older cat used my right leg as a pillow. I simply didn't want to disturb either one and didn't want to put the book down. Without giving a spoiler, I was reading the horrifying "Oyster Bay" (Manticore) section...

I did make the mistake of drinking a strong cup of coffee before going to work (about 2:30 pm while I was walking my dog) and then maybe ¼ to a ½ cup of coffee after I got to work. My stomach was upset for at least 3 hours after this. Tomorrow, no caffeine after noon!

Dinner: a fine mixture of left overs, fresh and canned

• the rest of the baked and then boiled steak from yesterday
• a can of sliced potatoes (which gave me a day's worth of salt!)
• a bunch of over boiled broccoli florets
• iced water

I was delighted that Mike Casey (owner of "Casey's Cowtown") has finally decided to serve spaghetti with meatballs and a red sauce; I have been bugging him for years on the subject and I think he came through well. I hope he has this available tomorrow and if so, I will order it.

Dinner: We  went to the Boot Hill Casino Restaurant for Tuscan Tuesday:

• salad
• some great pork and beef lasagna
• a strange white sauced substance
• green dough made with spinage

I asked the waiter what "pasta bar" meant. It turned out the two guys at a table were running a pasta bar and not a desert bar. I went back. The cook sauteed garlic, chopped tomoatoes, chunks of chicken in olive oil and added the red sauce and spaghetti noodles. (All of this is what I asked for.)

Breakfast: small piece of steak and some left over rice pilaf and coffee

Lunch: We went to a fairly new place, "Bella Italia Ristorante". This is our second visit. I had lasagna, two slices of white bread and 2 glasses of "Diet Coke". The lasagna was quite good, the bread needs improvement and the service fine.

They seriously need to decorate the place; they need some pictures and there are two electrical outlets that should be removed, with all traces of their existence destroyed (this "Ristorante" used to be a photo shop.)

Given the number of hamburger joints, "Mexican" restaurants, and quick food places, "Bella Italia Ristorante" is a sorely needed addition to the local restaurants selection.

All things considered, I hope they stay in business.

Snack: a piece of chocolate cake and some vanilla ice creamme. (Given how crappy I felt about 10 minutes after eating this, I kind of wish I had not...)

Pre-dinner Snack: two ripe bananas

Dinner: left over beef stew and cold water

The service was quite good! I hereby repent all the obnoxious remarks I made in the past about Pizza Hut; they seem to have gotten the hang of customer service. (I just hope they can maintain it...)

Snack: small slice of low sugar apple pie when I got to work (it was sitting out on a table being a perfect target for flies and germs...)

Dinner: home made stew with

• stewed (cheap) beef steak
