KFC for Lunch
Today we didnt have enough bread for sandwiches so we planned to go out for lunch. Jay said there was a Mcdonald's or BurgerKing pretty close. As we were walking, I said there was a KFC nearby and I'd like to go there to see if the chicken and coleslaw taste like that in Logan. We walked six or seven blocks without finding it, so asked someone. She said it was four or five more blocks. I said, Lets go back," so we crossed the street and headed toward the office (and where the McD/ BK was). On the way, I found a yarn shop that I want to visit again. We found a little shop of stationery supplies and bought a box of 24 pens that we like.Twenty four pens might sound like a lot, but they dont last as long as those we are used to. I enjoyed looking at all the shops, seeing what there was to offer. Now I truly believe that we can buy just about anything we can buy at home. Except Miracle Whip, brown sugar,molasses, and fresh milk. We turned a corner, found the McD's and were amazed to see that there were four lines all the way to the sidewalk of people waiting to place their orders. We ate outside under the umbrella tables, sharing the table with another man. He kindly gave me his unused ketchup packets when he saw me eat french fries with ketchup. We were about six or eight blocks from the office as far as I could tell. We felt adventurous, so wound our way around on a different path. We found some nice Chinese restaurants, and a steak house. There is a very tall, round, narrow building being built near the office, so we used it as our beacon, and found our way back to work. It was nice to get out and walk in the sunshine and mingle with the crowds.

So no coleslaw, but are the burgers and fries the same??
Also sounds like you walked off plent of the calories
All this shopping from the mom who, if I remember right, doesn't like to go shopping!
yeah, I'm having to shop a different way because Jay is always with me and he has the wallet. I dont even carry a peso (which is worth less than worthless). I have to know where things are found so I can get them when I need them. That's the same thing I do at home, but knowing where things are found is a lot easier. The hamburgers are a lot bigger and the fries portions are bigger, too, so there are a LOT of calories. My chicken sandwich had guacamole on it along with the tomato and onion. They dont put pickles in and I really miss them, and you know how much I like mustard, and there isnt that either. so, yes the sandwiches taste different, but its not because of the cooking or the meat. Today we walked off a lot of calories, too. see next blog.
