Home again, home again, jiggedy jig

Home for the night. Lonnie is staying at the hospital and I am doing laundry, feeding and socializing with the cats, doing my internet stuff, and trying to find the missing brown bag.

For lunch, grilled chicken, new potatoes, mixed fresh veggies and raspberry sherbet. Breakfast was biscuits and gravy, sausages, pineapple juice cereal and coffee. The best part of it is that it is delivered to the room and costs $3 for lunch and dinner, $1.75 for breakfast. Some of the meals are pure comfort food, and there is always enough. Jenny Craig would probably not be happy with me right now! There are three or four places to eat in town, including a Pizza Hut, an upscale steak house, a café that never has parking because the pickup trucks have every space taken (and there are a lot of them) and a place called The Frozen Frog that has killer panini sandwiches!
