Breakfast: left over rice pilaf and coffee

Lunch: Tomatoe soup with 2 hot dogs, slice of sour dough bread with peanut butter and grape jelly and coffee

Dinner: We went to the pre opening of a new restaurant. This place was built in what had been the Boot Hill Museum warehouse. They handed out three dinner cards, and a desert card.
I ordered:
• Salad. There was some discussion with the waitress about what my dressing was going to be. When the main course arrived, Kathie reminded the waitress that I had not gotten my salad.
• We had pheasant “sticks”. Very nicely flavored but very dry. Overcooked?
• I got sirloin stripes wrapped around sliced veggies and a very nice corn dish. It wasn’t until we were getting desert that Kathie said “weren’t you supposed to have a baked potatoe”. She was right. I had discussed the toppings on my baked potatoe and was assured “it is real bacon”.
• The desert was fine. There were three well cooked bacon stripes stuck in whipped creamme.

This was an opening and all the orders hit the kitchen The head chef was overwhelmed, I think.

Finally, I drank three glasses of a lemonade that was supposedly “low sugar”. This “low sugar” gave me the highest post-dinner blood sugar readings I have every had!

It was a startup that actually went well (I think). We will be going back when they are officially open and I will keep better track of what I am supposed to be getting!
