Food log: Saturday, January 16

After a restless night in a very comfortable chalet, we woke up to a wonderful breakfast feast, the kind that gives courage to cowards and legs to the wounded.

The ride home was filled with naps and forehead scarf prints.

Today was Sid Lee' agency party. We all piled up in yellow buses with our brown bag lunches and went to Jouvence in Orford for some winter fun and a huge party. Everything after "Muffin" was free. Thanks Sid Lee!

I had about 3 beers while enjoying the hot tub and spa. (no pic) Then at 4pm, we had an apéro with ice bar and meaty nibbles.

The guy called this a pogo, but it looked pretty naked to me. What's a Pogo without its corn batter? Dude: just because it's on a stick doesn't make it a pogo. But I didn't really care since it was delicious.

I had to take a break from all that booze.

After a nap and a shower at the chalet, we made ourselves pretty and all headed out to the main lodge for cocktails, followed by dinner and a party that went on into the wee hours of morning. At midnight, mini burgers and pizza were served to make sure everyone could continue the party without getting woozy.

At this point, the bar ran out of gin (!!!) so I had to improvise.
