This week was Fourth of July and also my wedding anniversary -- 22 years, holy wow! I did stray from my diet during the week, but only a little. On the fourth I enjoyed a wonderful, perfectly grilled piece of prime rib. OMG! It was delicious, and not just because I was dieting. I did only eat half and saved the other half for Friday's dinner.
Now... Saturday was a different story, but 22 years people, that's a big deal! That's like half of my life! I was definitely treating myself to some carbs! We went to my favorite restaurant -- Conchy Joe's. I started out good by ordering a white sangria... delish! But then I ordered than darn Big Conch. This is a drink for two -- seriously, says so on the menu! Here is a picture of the Big Conch next to a normal ordinary glass of sangria:
Conch fritters...
Salad with creamy dressing...
Fresh warm corn bread...
Seafood combo (okay, I did order it broiled and not fried)...
Plantains with mango glaze...
OMG... heaven! I ate it all so fast I didn't even take pictures!
I didn't order dessert. I was good...
until... I got home, then I treated myself to a Nestle's Vanilla Caramel Drumstick -- it's just like the original Drumstick except it has this wonderful oozy caramel down the center of the ice cream. Need I say more?!!
Sunday I ate nothing but vegetables... as much as I tried it didn't balance out that amazing meal!
Needless to say, I'll be eating MUCH better this week!
