gourmet lightweight

I ate salad, seared ahi, scallops, clams, steak, brussel sprouts, creamed spinach, goat cheese mac-n-cheese, french fries, truffles, coconut ice cream, candied walnuts, and three fruity sorbets… and all I brought home was this lousy photo of my coffee mug.

I’m a lucky gal. My friend Jackie, of See Jack Write, came in town from Oregon on assignment for Gayot. Her task: 3 nights, 3 ultra-amazing meals. I accompanied her on night #1: Charlie Palmer Steak in Reno.

Unfortunately for dear Jackie on our ride home, I completely overestimated my stomach’s ability. All that richness combined with car-sickness made me one lousy, drowsy, and nauseous co-pilot. Note to self: never gorge again. Or better yet, learn to hang with the foodies!
