On
Wednesday, March 3rd, I went to lunch at Taco Loco, or as Hamilton calls it,
Crazy Taco.
|
|
I ordered the Chicken Quesadilla and a drink, which was very nice, but cost a pretty $8.75 total. |
|
I took a coffee break that afternoon and got a lowfat mocha for $3. | |
I couldn't find anyone to have dinner with that night, so I went to the Natural Foods Co-op. | |
I
got the two-salad sampler, Kung Pao Tofu and Garlic Pasta. I brought it home to
eat.
It was just $4.22, and provided a rollercoaster ride of emotions. At first I was disappointed at the small portion of food, but when I tasted it, I was thrilled. They really make great salads at the Co-op deli. My meal had one more disappointment in it though, a single straight black hair.
Have you ever noticed that you never find hair in food you cook yourself? |

On
Thursday, I asked my boss if he wanted me to pick him something up for lunch, he
asked where I was going.
"Nationwide Meats", I said. "No thanks, I don't want to have a heart-attack". He replied.
|
|
The french ground steak burger is their specialty. This is a really, really good, big burger. I ordered one with cheese and a large Coke. $7.48 |
|
Nationwide is a little gem, hidden on 20th and H Streets. It is the kind of place where you could easily become a regular. The atmosphere is casual and friendly, and the people that work there seem to enjoy being there. |
|
The ground french burger kept me satisfied late into the evening, but I finally at around 11pm I grabbed some dinner, leftover KFC. |

On
Friday I picked up some donuts at Happy Donut on J Street.
I've always been amazed at the donut-getter's ability to know exactly which donut I am pointing at in a 7x8 array of sprinkles and glaze. |
|
The
donuts were $7.70 plus tax.
I didn't eat all of the donuts, but I'm going to include the total price of the donuts in the month-end totals. By the end of March, I'll have enjoyed my share of community treats. |
|
Friday
was a great day, in part because of the donuts.
On a delivery before lunch, I snapped a shot of this team-building tree-planting scene. |
|
We
picked up lunch at I (Heart) Teriyaki. Jason's brother was in there,
picking up a delivery and we said hi. I see that guy everywhere!
A television in the restaurant was tuned to Headline News. Martha Stewart had just been found guilty on all charges. |
|
I had sesame chicken, with rice, salad and slaw. $7.40. | |
On
Friday night I went out to a pig roast in Davis.
|
|
There was a whole wild boar being sliced to pieces, and a huge table of side dishes and beer. | |
The
incredible story behind the party is that Brooke's friend Rick Bush bagged the
boar himself. He spent three days tracking the boar through the woods before shooting it with a bow and arrow, and then hosted a dinner to raise funds to complete his graduate thesis research on threatened North Coast California Steelhead Trout. |
|
Dinner was boar, potato salad, bread and beer. It was excellent. Please continue reading Saturday, March 6th. |
