the weekend (final post of my week)

So, i know ive been slacking, but i have a lot to write about, but im going to try to condense. im happy to report that the end of the week was significantly easier then the beginning. apparently people feel mich more open to share on the weekend.

Friday: I worked on friday so food was easy to come by.  as soon as i got to work i was starving so i had a salad and chips (it was lunch time but i could not find the hot food as it was not in the break room). after the snack, i started working and was able to get some food in from the impromptu break room. i had a buffalo chicken sandwich. then, throughout work, i was able to get random food  (especially when the reception was being broken down. mmmmmm salami). finally, i had break again at the end of the event and had the same thing i had earlier. a buffalo chicken sandwich. noticing a pattern?

Saturday: Saturday i had catering club in the morning, so i knew i would be able to get food very easily. for the even we made egg casserole, fruit salad, sausage, french toast and an assortment of muffins. fortunately we had a lot of volunteers so i didnt have to cook anything. therefore, i took it upon myslef to perfect fried potatoes (like ones i had in germany). i fried about 12 potatoes and must say i got very good at preparing them and karen made a delicious aioli to go along with them. yum! we also cooked up some ham steaks to eat. i was able to bring a lot of this stuff home and ate for the night on them. some people also brought doritos over to pregame and i had some of those.

Sunday (today): today is the last day of the challenge. in the morning, i had some muffins left over from catering club yesterday and some orange juice that i brought home from that as well. then, a friend came over and brought everyone bagels and i had two of those (an asiago cheese and a blueberry). then i took a three hour nap to avoid hunger. then, tonight, i went to a friends place to watch a movie (after finding out the hub would not be playing Despicable Me). my friend had a jar of skittles which i made a small meal of. now, i am sitting on my couch contemplating the perfect meal to buy for 12am! i have never been so excited to order food. i think the hardest part about this week is not being able to get the food i want when i want it. everything i ate was decided by someone else. finally, i get to get my own meal!

I hope everyone has enjoyed reading our journey through this week of free food or sometimes, lack of free food. i plan on keeping this blog going dedicated to food in some form or another, so keep checking back.

Thanks for reading,
~Josh
