Weak sauce

Sorry for the long break in posts. #1 I was lazy, and #2 I had issues getting the pics uploaded from my phone.

As a result, I'm foggy on a lot of this and will be going off of the pics to try and remember the food.

On Thursday (28th of June for those keeping up), I had a salad and an egg roll for lunch:

The egg roll was good, the salad was pretty good. There's some ham and chicken hidden under the first layer of greens there. I managed to get a really good amount of dressing on there, not too much nor too little.

I don't remember what I had for dinner that night, I'm thinking it was Buffalo Wild Wings ribs and boneless wings combo. I know I had it one Thursday night, and I'm thinking that was the one. In any case, it was pretty good, the "wings" were pretty weak, but the ribs were really good.

Mother's Day

Well, it was a pretty laid back Mother's Day. Since I had taken her out on Friday, she spent most of the day with Dad down at Tunica playing on some free money and such. I spent the afternoon hanging with them. While waiting on them to get home, I treated myself to a chicken and ham sandwich, which I didn't get a pic of. Since they weren't going to do anything for dinner, and what I wanted would've taken me WAY to long to cook (didn't have any of the meat thawed out) I stopped at the old standby, Arby's. I went with a medium sandwich, some potato wedges and cheese sticks:

The sandwich was just ok, I think the meat was a tad dry, the potato cakes and cheese sticks were good and the tea was pretty great as usual.

Junk Food

Tuesday was a day of junk food. To give some insight on my lunch selection, let me tell you about my movie watching preference. The theater I usually attend has some really good corn dogs. They also have frozen coke (Coke Icee / Slurpee for those that haven't heard of Frozen Coke). I usually get one of each of these, and eat the corn dog before the movie and work on the Frozen Coke before and during the movie.

This past weekend Marvel's The Avengers opened up to record breaking numbers. I'm part of the reason for that. I knew going in that the movie was two and a half hours long. And lately, my kidneys have been working on overdrive, so I didn't feel like testing them out by having my usual Frozen Coke before the flick started. For in order to get a decent seat, I'd have to be there very early. So, forewent my movie snack. Plus, I saw the flick twice this weekend, on Friday with my friends and took Mom and Sis on Sunday. If that doesn't tell you how much I liked the movie, well, tough luck.

So, today I gave in to half my craving and went with a corn dog for lunch, from the cafeteria:

It's not as good as the ones at the theater, as the cafeteria uses frozen ones that they then deep fry, where as the theaters are freshly made, I think. And by that I mean they're not as uniformly done up as these are, I've seen a LOT of variation in their thickness and overall presentation. But these are pretty good, the deep frying definitely helps the corn dog out, as opposed to baking in the oven or (gasp) nuking it in the microwave. Their fries are pretty good also, but they usually have a hard time keeping salt on them, without flat out wiping them in it.

For dinner, my buddy Jesse was partial to BWW (Buffalo Wild Wings) so I went with some Honey BBQ boneless wings and potato wedges:

They did a good job in dousing the "wings" in sauce and the wedges were cooked pretty well. All in all one of the better dining experiences from them.

Thursday Game Night and Movie Friday

On Tuesdays and Thursday evenings, I hang out and do some tabletop gaming with some friends. Last night, Jesse and I opted for Buffalo Wild Wings, as I was starving and didn't care and he wanted their nachos. So, I went with the ribs and boneless wings combo. They were supposed to sub potato wedges for fries, but either they were feeling generous or screwed up and I got both:

I realize it doesn't look very appetizing, and to be honest, it's probably the second worst presentation of this meal I've gotten from them, but I will assure you, it tasted a LOT better than it looks. Except for the fries, they were pretty cold, which is why I usually opt for the wedges, cause their fries almost always suck.

Today, for "lunch" Shawn and I left early and went to see Cabin in the Woods. Most people love a Coke and popcorn for their movie snacks, but for the theater I go to 95% of the time, they have corn dogs. And not premade frozen ones. These puppies (pun definitely intended) are fairly to VERY fresh, and almost always good. Since I've cut out around 90 - 95% of my caffeine intake (as well as Coke intake) this is one of the few times I splurge and get a frozen coke. And what good corn dog doesn't have mustard all over it?

The movie was as good as the food, btw.
