Early Night

Today I only had to work 4 hours and we went out to eat with our friends this evening. We went to a fondue/pot rock place. They bring out this marble slab that's heated to around 700 degrees and then you cook your own food on it. It was more cooking than I've done in awhile. And for dessert - fruit and cake and marshmallows (it seemed wrong to dip marshmallows in chocolate but it sure was good) and white chocolate fondue with pecan praline bits in it. It was very tasty. We were so full afterwards that we didn't even go anywhere else for drinks. Just came home to sloth around. It took me less than 30 seconds to get out of my clothes and into my robe after our friends left.

It feels good to be fat and happy at home.

something doesn't seem right there ... paying someone so that I can cook my own meal ... why can't i ever think of inventions like that?
ok, you pay me and then you do the work :)

Mmmm...THAT sounds delicious!

OOLOTH - I'd never heard of it either and I was kinda surprised when everything ended up tasting okay.

Pusher Robot - I wouldn't want to go there every weekend (or if I were starving because I'd be tempted to undercook something and then get food poisoning) but it was fun.

Shannon - Maybe you need white chocolate and then sleep? That combination worked very well for me last night!

Bekah - I prefer the marshmallow fluff in a jar for that sort of thing.

Zube Girl - It was the first time I'd been unpleasantly full in awhile!

Cooking your own food at a restaurant is an interesting idea. Sounds like it might be fun on occasion except for the fact that I don't want to be around anything that is 700°.

Anne Arkham - It was a fun way to blow 2 hours.

Bekah - Would you like to go to an AA meeting with Oy?

MCB - Nothing will make a table full of people be still quicker than a couple of hot rocks!

I think Oy and I could have a good time making fun of all the drunks at the AA meeting. Haha!
