Anna and I went on a date today. An all day date. We intended on driving up to Fairhaven (where we had our Honeymoon), left at 10:30, but got distracted by an outlet mall and never made it all the way up. But we had such a great day! And then, to top it all off, we finally went to a buffet at a local casino. It was great, I pretty much stayed within my Caloric goals. One problem, though, was that it was a casino on tribal grounds, and that meant that there was indoor smoking (you see, in Washington State, indoor smoking is banned)--not fun for us. Some of you might like to smoke, but I don't like it all. In fact, my mom smoked for 40 years before she passed away. Yuck.
But, here are the photos of my three plates from the buffet (with a list of my calories--I tried to overestimate):

Happy New Year Beej! Sounds like you had a great day with your family. I agree with you completely on the indoor smoking -- so foul. It's a relief that smoking inside is now banned in NYC. Before that, I could rarely go inside a restaurant or bar without getting a headache.
Congrats on all your hard work and focus this past year -- you are an inspiration!
Cheers,
Ish

Happy New Year to you and Anna!
Great job on the buffet and nice pics!
Boo to the smoke, I would not have been able to stand it. I quit smoking almost 12 years ago. Gross!!!
Here's hoping for even more success for you in 2010! Thanks for the hug!

While I don't smoke and never have, it doesn't seem to bother me too much, at least not at the time I am around it. Who knows what it is doing to me though.
