Dinner tonight

Mark and I went out to dinner with friends - Baltimore Restaurant week - went to The Bicycle Bistro. And my least favorite course was dessert - what a change. When looking at the menu and the choices, I really didn't see one that I really wanted but because we were doing the Prie Fixe selections I had to pick one. In the past, it was always the best way to finish a meal out - have a cup of coffee and a rich dessert. I could have skipped the dessert altogether and just had the french pressed coffee.

Instead I savored my first 2 courses - Squash soup and then Salmon with fresh vegetables. And I brought half the salmon home because it was a large piece. I had one glass of wine with dinner along with 2 glasses of water (and my Going, Going Gone supplement!). I did finish with decaf coffee and had the Bananas Foster Bread Pudding - I think I had a total of 3 small bites of this. Just didn't have the taste for it.

Eating out was still an indulgence and I know I shared a bit of this with jawz, but all in all I'm proud of making healthier choices.
