EAT TOO MUCH WEEK: Tuesday & Wednesday

Tuesday, May 19

You would think that -- after the eatfest that was my trip to Lima -- I would ramp it down somewhat this week. Well, no.

My old friend Boyd used to say, "The more you get, the more you want." He wasn't talking about food, but the point is the same.

I landed and was out of the airport by 7:15 in the morning. I took a cab straight to the office to work until I passed out.

It was going perfectly well until Jeff suggested that we go get some Soup for Lunch. Off to Pho Hoa we went.

I had a Number 65, extra Large, Jeff had a Number 63, and Larry had some sort of Chicken Salad.

It was a mistake. I started nodding off at my desk, so I headed home. I stopped at Publix, where cut-up Watermelon was on sale.

I nodded off for a few hours, and when I woke up, I had some Bowls of Watermelon, and then, in the freezer, I discovered some Split Pea Soup that Vivian had given me and the last of the Frozen Grapes. I inhaled all of those things before passing out again.

Here's Tuesday's Steps:

Wednesday, May 20

In the morning, I had some more of the small Bowls of Publix Watermelon Chunks.

Then I discovered that I had left my camera in Pho Hoa yesterday, so I called them up to confirm. I picked up the camera at Lunch time, and I couldn't really go there and NOT have Soup, could I?

On the way home, I stopped at El Punto (formerly Andrews Meat Market) and picked up some nice Turkey Necks.I broke out the Usual Suspects and cooked me up a Mess o' Turkey Necks.

I ate them throughout the course of the night, leaving over four or five pieces, which I later gave to Lonnise for her mother, who is a big Turkey Neck fan.
