DINNER 301: Sunday, October 29, 2006

A blissful night off from the show. We lazed around the house most of the day, going out only to do some grocery shopping and to dine at Margarita’s, a very good Mexican restaurant near our house. I had Shrimp & Rice and Chicken Soup.…

DINNER 300: Saturday, October 28, 2006

Dinner before this evening’s performance of the ROCKY HORROR SHOW at Falcon Theater was a run through Taco Bell for a couple quesadillas and one of their awesome Caramel Apple Empenadas. Between shows, we had sandwiches, chips, and sodas brought in (thanks Ted & Tracy!) so…

DINNER 299: Friday, October 27, 2006

My premonition came true! As it turns out, I am psychic. I’m just a better psychic than I expected, seeing not ONE DAY but more than ONE WEEK into my dining future.

I was right — Dave (who plays Dr. Scott (great Scott!) in the ROCKY HORROR SHOW at Falcon Theater) & I met at Pepper Pod. Our server, a kind lady who has worked there for 35 years and talks in a sing-song voice yelled at Dave for not finishing his green beans. I had salsbury steak, mashed potatoes, and cottage cheese. A cola product to drink! It was good but nothing earth shattering! It didn’t sit well!

Man, I’m a talented psychic. I need to sit down.

DINNER 298: Thursday, October 26, 2006

Wendy had a brush-up for ROCKY HORROR SHOW at Falcon Theater so I did something I haven’t done in a while — I cooked dinner for myself. On my way home from work, I stopped at the market and picked up a couple Cornish Hens,…

DINNER 297: Wednesday, October 25, 2006

Tonight was a rare treat — an evening for both of us with nothing to do. Well, not really nothing — we had to get gas for Wendy’s car, get some new bedding, and stop at the mall. But given our schedules lately, this counts…

DINNER 296: Tuesday, October 24, 2006

Not much in the way of dinner this evening. Getting home from work took longer than expected — I witnessed a fender-bender accident (right in front of me!) on my way. Fortunately, no one was hurt. But by the time I got on my way again, traffic had gotten pretty thick.

So I made it home and took care of the dogs before getting ready to go see Monty Python’s SPAMALOT at the Aronoff Theater with Wendy. She got home, got ready, and grabbed an energy bar which reminded me I hadn’t eaten. I grabbed a breakfast bar and a soda and we were off to the theater.

The show was okay… There was no story to speak of; it was mostly a loose collection of ‘bits’ connected by immediately forgettable songs performed by actors who seemed to be phoning in their performances. There was some genuinely funny stuff, but not enough to elevate the show beyond mediocre.

It's Away!

As discussed in this article, Wendy & I prepared an audition DVD for a food television show. I sent it off today and it will arrive in New York tomorrow. Cross your fingers for us! Big thanks to Robin, Dave, and Wendy for their help and patience…
