Party this weekend

January 31, 2012 // Posted in Eating Out, Mine, People (Tags: , , , ) |  Comments Off

I am going to the Super Bowl party at Bailey’s Sports Bar and Grill. I am rooting for the Pats this year as I cannot fucking stand the Giants. All my friends are meeting me for the game and we have already reserved our table weeks ago. I know the staff at Bailey’s very well since my ex boy friend used to work there. Usually they don’t take reservations, but for regular patrons they will for special occasions like the Super Bowl. You gotta love that shit. This is going to be a great party, because some friends who moved away are coming in to town just for the game. So it will be a Super Bowl party/ reunion at the same time.

We are going to pitch in for the food and just get a crap load of appetizers to munch on while we watch the game. Everyone will of course take care of their own drinks, after all it is a bar. I cannot wait till this weekend. I have been looking forward to it since the season began. It is my favorite part of football season of course. I have to remember to call up Dottie and see what her and her husband are doing on Sunday.

Out to eat…

I am heading out to eat at my favorite restaurant. The Koi Chinese Buffet is the most fucking awesome place to eat. they have the largest buffet in town, with Chinese and Japanese food on it. They can cook your food  for you to order at the grill and make to order sushi as well. And the dessert table is to die for ! OMFG their shit is so good. If you have never eaten there, you must try it.

Take Away

The words have changed one me and I don’t know when they decided that the word “carry out” was not a good term for getting food from a restaurant even though you don’t want to eat there.

I used to order from the regular menu and them them to pack it up “to go.” Then I would drive over there, park the car, go inside and pay for the food, and take it all home with me to eat in front of the TV instead of in a huge dining room filled with other people eating and sometimes their bratty kids screaming and whining. It’s just more pleasant to eat at home when you are alone.

I would call that process “carry out” or “to go” but now the proper words are “take away.” I do understand the meaning behind the new words, but what was so wrong with the other ones? Did we really need to change the words?

Sonic Happy Hour

October 8, 2011 // Posted in Eating Out (Tags: , , , , ) |  Comments Off

The Sonic drive up restaurants around here are a great place to stop for breakfast, lunch or dinner – any time of day and up until 1:00 am. So if you feel like breakfast at midnight, that’s still cool.

Now they are having a happy hour every afternoon. It has nothing to do with alcohol. They let you pay half price for drinks in the afternoon. That is good enough reason for a lot of people to stop by while they are out running errands or if they get off work early enough to get there while the special is going on.

Skip the fries

Went to Five Guys and had a burger. I know they brag about their fries – the peanut oil and all. But I really can’t eat fries any more. Doctors orders. I really have to get these last 8 pounds off my butt and thighs. It’s embarrassing. I blame the fries for that and this has to stop. So, no fries and a lot more lettuce and celery.
