Lunch: Leftover meatloaf cups
Dinner: All sorts of hors d’oeuvres at some reception
Dessert: Well, I was kind of hungry, so I had some leftover mashed potatoes with bolognese sauce. And then some chocolate bark.
Breakfast: Cliff bar (early morning meeting)
Lunch: Burrito from Vallejos in Sacramento. One of those meals that just does an injury! This was the closest place to our meeting, and we got a recommendation from someone whose cousin owned it or something. Anyway, I ordered a carnitas burrito, and it shows up about the same size as a chinchila. I kid you not, this fucking thing would not have fit through a piece of 4″ PVC. I didn’t finish it, thank god, but it was still like a bomb went off. Sadly, except for the size, it was disappointing. The meat was beautifully cooked, but the flavor was bland.
Afternoon snack: Frappucino. Not because I was hungry (like hell!) but because I was tired and had a long drive.
Dinner: Leftover chicken
Dessert: See’s candy
