Food log: Friday, September 25

The day started on a crunchy note

Then I had my usual cuppa tea

I forgot my lunch at home, so it was the perfect excuse to go out and have lunch at Holder's with Cindy! We started things is style with a few cocktails: a Perfect Manhattan for me and a cosmo for Cindy.

Then I had the asparagus and crab soup and some buttered croûtons

Lunch at Holder's was $47 with tip.

I needed some very hot tea from the Bistro to digest it all.

Later, the Bistro had another surprise for us. That makes 5/5 days this week. Lindsay thinks they are trying to fatten us up for the winter. We are not complaining. Some are even writting songs of happiness about the whole situation.

I had some crunchy stuff and a soda from the machine ($1.25)
Snack frim the bistro (free), Diet Coke $1.25


After work, I had to go on my biennial hunt for a swimsuit to wear to aquagym class (chlorine is a biatch) and stopped at my favorite mall-rat Japanese restaurant for dinner.
