Last night I didn’t eat in the hotel because it was too expensive but I didn’t have that problem this morning for breakfast because there was a breakfast buffet included in the price of the hotel room. If you know anything about the struggles of a guy like me you are wincing to yourself thinking about how I may have performed at the trough of a hot breakfast buffet. That is normally a concern I would share but this morning I was determined, partly because of this crazy taking pictures of my food stuff, to behave myself at breakfast.
I think I succeeded, what do you think?

Breakfast buffet. These are usually very tough for me but I set out to do well and I think I did. Only one trip to the buffet, where I had a single sausage link, a couple of scrambled eggs, some pineapple, a yogurt, a small cheese blintz and believe it or not a bowl of oatmeal. My wife always gets oatmeal at buffets and I’ve never understood it. But I’ve been eating oatmeal lately so I tried a bowl with a little brown sugar and some raisins. Frankly, it wasn’t very good. I only ate about a third of the bowl.
As often happens when I travel for business I skipped lunch because I was too busy and then took a coworker out for dinner. The restaurant was dark so the pictures aren’t very good. Dinner was a cup of lobster bisque (so good but I don’t want to know how many calories), a couple of small pieces of bread, a beer (which is in the picture but hard to see), a glass of really delicious Reisling and for the entree a rare seared ahi tuna served with a little rice and a side of asian slaw that was tossed with a light vinaigrette. No dessert.
So today was kind of a mixed bag depending on how you look at things. On the one hand I think I did well at the buffet but on the other hand you can still make an argument that even though I think I did well in comparison to how I would normally do that I still ate too much. I don’t think so but I can see why someone else might think that. Obviously I know skipping lunch isn’t good, and while I think I made good decisions at dinner, far better than I may have made otherwise, I obviously know how I could have done either better. But I still think I did pretty well.
So how do you think I did? Click a star!
