This weekend I went to Spokane to visit my sister for her birthday. We ate out every meal and as many of you with dietary restrictions know, eating out is not easy or fun. Almost everything comes with cheese on it and bread on the side. I usually have two choices. A salad or some kind of meat with veggies.
On Friday night we went to Anthony which is usually one of my favorite places! As soon as we sat down we started talking about appetizers. Let me start off my saying crab dip is my favorite when I go to any seafood restaurant. So of course they order the crab dip and breaded asparagus and then the waitress continued to place two large baskets of fresh bread right in front of me.
At this point I am being tortured and I’m sitting quietly and waiting for my salad. When the salad arrived I was very upset. I remembered to ask for no croutons but forgot to say no cheese. I was starving and watching everyone around me stuffing their faces. Finally the dinner arrived after the longest 45 minutes of my life and I don’t think I’ve ever been so happy to see food!
The next nights dinner was quite the repeat of the night before. I think this was my sisters way of getting back at me from all the mean things I did to her as kids. We sat down and again ordered crab dip! Then they sat down the best smelling garlic bread I’ve ever smelled! I almost died. It took every thing in my body not to risk it and have a piece. The worst part was after dinner when my Mom’s boyfriend ordered three desserts that I couldn’t eat. Creme brulee, chocolate cake, and breaded pudding.
Oh well! Overall probably saved me about 1500 calories!
