Fourth of July and Our Honey’s Birthday's

For the 4th of July this year, my cousin invited us to Winstar World Casino.  I have been there many times, and a few times I have stayed at the Casino’s Hotel.  I am not going to tell you how we all got sick from a lot of the terrible food there (which was a first for me), or how our room had a busted toilet, but I am going to say that I ate a lot of not good for me foods. 

Here is my cousin and I in the hotel room,

While we were there I had french fries from Chips ‘N Ales, a slice Alfredo Florentine pizza and cheese tortellini at Matador’s, a Caprese Sandwich with a baked potato from Terrace View Café.  On the way back home, we stopped at the Cracker Barrel, and had delicious food for half the price of any crap from Winstar.  I ate french toast, hash browns, eggs, and a biscuit.  All the food was vegetarian friendly, but a lot of fatty carbs and loads of evil calories.  The only plus side is that we walked for a couple hours and it was a lot of fun.  I also had some Black Heart Rum, which tasted pretty yummy with coke.  To make matters worse, we got home and realized we were low on groceries, and so the carb loading continued on to Sunday night.  

I am treating this as a lesson that needed to be learned.  Holiday’s do make it a lot more difficult, no matter how you celebrate, if you don’t make planning your meals a priority.  I am not even going to get on that scale for at least a week, so I won’t feel even more disappointed.  Oh, I almost forgot to add that today is My Honey’s birthday, so there was cake and ice cream last night.  Here’s to getting back at it!
