#758: Sunday Lunch

Would you believe I ate lunch yesterday? I know, it's crazy, but I did.

I and someone whom I will call L, for lack of another name at this point, spent enough time driving around Cityville yesterday looking for a spot to have lunch that we could have easily driven to the next small city, but we eventually settled on this chain family restaurant with dead animal heads mounted on the walls and camping equipment hanging from wooden posts. It was truly not my usual style, but that's what happens when you live in a city with more chain restaurants than it can throw sticks at, and what's not to love about staring at a dead buffalo head throughout your meal?

The waitress thoughtfully covered our entire table in meat packing paper and provided us with crayons, which helped to change my mind a little. Crayons! Drawing on the table!

I had a beef brisket sandwich with dipping sauce that was supposed to come with fries, but since they completely unnecessarily deep fried the onions on the sandwich, I tried to make the healthy choice by ordering a side spinach salad. The chef was particularly attentive to my salad and dipped each spinach leaf individually in flavoured oil. The salad made slurpy noises when I tried to eat it.

The following photos are kind of shaky, but I was standing in a small hallway topped by a board that read OUTHOUSES, and there was a person in the men's washroom that was going to come out any second and become a part of my lunch experience.

The zucchini looks fresh though.

My husband has that t-shirt. But it looks better on you!

[Schmutzie]

If there was actually zucchini involved, it might have been fresh, but there is no zucchini pictured here. Just limp spinach and lemon slices that were nothing but rinds. Yum.

[Knuckle Toes]

You stole Palinodes t-shirt!
I'm telling.

[palinode]

I only see one gun.

[leahpeah]

that shirt is fantastic.

[losing true]

Dang. Should've had the boob job.

[You can call me, 'Sir']

I don't mean to give you a complex, but it appears that you have the mouth of a leech.

Palinode, beware.

Your drawings are pretty
Your breasts are divine
I want to be witty
I don't want to whine

So when I correct you
Pardon me, please
But you misused two
Apostrophes.

I once had a shirt with Mr. Rogers holding a glock on it that read "Welcome to My Hood."

Don't you hate it that meat-packing paper doesn't come with spellcheck???

[i am the diva]

a) - i love your tshirt. it makes me think of....Magnum P.I., Chuck Norris, and Wyatt Earp.

b) - i also love your pendant! where did you find such a lovely thing?

c) - is there some way you can add the theme song from Hinterland's Who's Who to this post?

[Schmutzie]

I keep getting compliments on that pendant, but it's actually a ring I bought at Amos & Andes a few years ago.

[i am the diva]

i've given you the Power of Schmooze award. C'mon over and get it! :D

Also...it's still a very attractive pendant, even if it is a ring.
