An embarrassment of riches
We went to New Hampsha this week, had dinner at the hotel.
Nice place for being in the middle of nowhere in the White Mountain
area.
Drove around for a day, nothing to see, it was quite foggy. I really
wanted to see the former Man on the Mountain, but why bother.
Visibility was really bad.
So, we went to dinner, as I said, I already had my menu picked
out online. See, this was a sort of mortgage burning dinner. I
orderded seafood stuffed mushrooms and prime rib. I couldn't
decide between prime rib and filet mignon. Finally, I said, the
heck with it, get prime rib.
She started asking me questions. Soup or salad? Uh ... soup?
What kind of potato? Blah blah blah. This was after she'd
brought a loaf of their excellent bread that I adore. I'm in
serious trouble now. I can't eat all this!
So, you know I had some bread. The soup comes, wow, it
was more like vegetable stew, excellent. By the time two of
us had placed our orders, the table was *covered* with
plates and bowls of food. Too funny.
He had a whole steamed lobster. Etc.
Bill came to 50 bucks. It was like a present.
