Hello from Columbus! I’ve survived my work weekend/Monday, and now I’m back in Columbus so I can catch an early flight back to Madison (by way of O’Hare, of course). I got in around 8:15 and in lieu of veg eats near my hotel, I renewed my grocery store plan of last night and picked up something made by my personal chef, Amy:

Thanks, Amy!

Unlike my hotel in Z-ville, this one actually has a microwave AND a refrigerator! Imagine that! Additionally, the coffee maker is not in the bathroom, which is always a plus in my book – I’m not really a fan of toilet coffee. However, this hotel only has wired internet, not wifi. You win some, you lose some.

Anyway, Amy fed me well – this was actually a pretty tasty meal, although the dal could’ve used a little more spice. And, like most of Amy’s food, this one is a little high in sodium. I washed it down with one of my guilty – if rarely indulged – pleasures, a vitamin water. I haven’t had one of these in ages, but I won’t deny that I enjoyed it. The Power-C Dragonfruit variety was always my favorite, and now I appreciate the B12 and the fact that its lovely pink color comes from “vegetable juice” – I’m thinkin’ beets. Deeelightful!

I’m excited to get back home and start COOKING again! My eats and my posts have been pretty pathetic of late. Now I’m gonna go back to watching Golden Girls on one of the two (!) TVs in my hotel room. Heh heh. Ciao, y’all!

What’s your guilty pleasure? Do you like any trendy drinks?
