June 2015 – Loving Food, Fashion, & Life

Fried chicken, cream corn, baked beans, mashed potatoes, macaroni & cheese, and baked potato chips.

So here’s yet another buffet I love going to. It’s at one of the riverboat casinos in my area. All of the casinos have buffets and I’ve tried them all. You know me! But this one just happens to be my favorite—and it has a massive buffet, too! There’s so much food you have to get one plate after another.

There are several food stations broken down into several different lovely areas:

Chinese food station
Barbecue food station
American food station
Italian food station
Salad, soup, & bread station
Dessert station

So I bit into it thinking I’m just psyching myself out again like always when introduced to a new nutrition bar and this would be just like any other nutrition bar—you know, like when you think you’re not going to like it very much but then discover it’s pretty edible after all even though it’s not your favorite thing to eat in the world?

Well, low and behold, that bite was inside my mouth and when I got to the 2nd & 3rd chew I’m like—WHAT FRESH HELL IS THIS I’M TRAPPED INSIDE OF?!
