Eating out
"I had the foresight to loosen my belt one notch," Ben said just now, post pork belly.
I'm a bad vegetarian. I don't eat meat. I avoid jello and marshmallows and uninspected soup, for fear that I'll consume something tainted. But when we go out I always encourage Ben to eat the decadent and awful things I've read about in various foodie publications. In the past he's consumed wild boar and buffalo at my instigation.
Tonight it was pork belly, and from what I've heard it was amazing. My butter-mushroom-grain-asparagus was also incredible. Mind blowingly so, but not belt looseningly. We hadn't had a decadent meal out in more than a year. That changed tonight. I'd say it was worth it.
