Tonight we went out to dinner. Any night that I don’t have to cook is a good night! Unfortunately, I still have breakfast and lunch dishes sitting on the counter because I haven’t unloaded the dishwasher from dinner last night. There may be a dirty pan in the sink. I’m not sayin’ whether there is or not, and you can’t see my kitchen so I don’t have to.
The last couple of times that we’ve gone out, I’ve ordered a salad. I love a good salad full of a variety of veggies, and I had a couple of really good salads. However, sometimes I just want a burger. A big, fat, juicy burger. So that’s what I ordered tonight; a nacho burger with nacho cheese and guacamole with fries on the side.
A burger just begs to be served with a beer. So I had to order a beer, too. I mean, what the heck? It’s Friday night, after all!
Beer makes me tired. I’m going to curl up in bed with a good book.
This burger and beer post brought to you by National Blog Posting Month! What did you order the last time you went out to eat?
Was it a burger or was it salad?
The last time I went for spare ribs. I love eating with my hands! No beer though, since I had to drive. Normally I would go for fish though, because I don’t cook fish that often.
My step-mom had ribs last night and shared them with my dad and Lily! They looked so good, but I was so stuffed from my burger that I didn’t try any. I don’t cook fish that often because it is just so expensive here. It’s so good for you, though!
Last time we ate out was at a chicken restaurant and we got the buffet to go. Not exactly eating out, but more like take out I guess. We just don’t eat out much. At our age, we just don’t eat as much as we used to plus most meals are over loaded on carbs.
Oh, yes, my meal last night was definitely loaded with carbs! We go out to eat about once a week, and I cook most of our meals at home.
I actually ordered quesadillas last week when we went out to dinner before seeing Jim Gaffigan live (our one date night like in months) and I ended up having a vicious headache all day. So, I ended up just ordering sparkling water, because my headache was actually finally subsiding and truly didn’t want it to come back. Not a beer drinker though, but maybe next time I can at least get a cocktail and leave the headache at home 😉
Ordering water was probably the smart thing to do! If I have alcohol when I have a headache, it just gets worse! I’m so happy that you were able to get out and see Jim Gaffigan live! What a fun date night!
I’ve been trying to lose weight and, thus, watching what I eat. However, I get so tired of salads! Last weekend we went to an Italian restaurant and I went in thinking I would be “good” and order salad. I didn’t. I ordered baked ziti with mistake and lots of melted cheese! It was sooooooo good!
Good for you! We can’t eat salads all the time! 🙂
Good for you for doing NaBloPoMo! At the rate I’m going, I’m lucky to get 1-2 posts per week!
Well, we’ll see how far I go this year. November is still young!
Not a burger but a hot dog and fries. We went to our local burger joint.. called Local because it’s all local and organic meat. .Sounds wonderful, right?
Well they messed up the order, the fries got soggy on the way home, and the kids wouldn’t tough their organic local chicken nuggets!
Boo.
It does sound wonderful, but soggy fries? Not so much. Emmy still insists that McDonald’s chicken nuggets are the best. I tell her over and over NO! They are NOT the best! They are not even chicken! Fortunately, going to McDonald’s is very rare for us. 😉
We rarely go out to eat anymore so when we do I always pick something besides a salad!! And there is always at least one drink involved!!!
Glad you had a date night!! That nacho burger sounds GOOD!!!
Now that is a good way to look at it! We go out about once a week, which is probably more than we should. I do eat a lot a salads at home, though!
