WEEK 8 -- DAY 50 -- STILL AWAY

Wow, this is a bright and happy 50.  I think I've already mentioned how much fun it is finding the different numbers to use everyday for my blog entries.

Today I was away from home once again and had an Entenmann's apple turnover tart for breakfast.  I think the box said these were 310 calories a piece.  Didn't eat anything else during the day until dinnertime.

I was at the Borgata and a friend of mine has a black card which entitles them to bring a guest to Borgata's exclusive buffet called Amphora Lounge.  They don't serve as much as the regular Borgata buffet but what they do serve is exceptional.  I started off with about 5 shrimp and a salad with croutons and a very delicious creamy dressing.  For dinner I had a little bit of a few things....ravioli stuffed with mushrooms, mashed potatoes, lobster and cheese macaroni and the most delicious braised short rib I have ever had.  As a matter of fact, it's the first time I ever had a braised short rib but it won't be the last.  I also had a chocolate covered cannoli for dessert. 

Definitely not a diet lovers meal but definitely a delicious one.  Thank goodness I don't weight myself until next week so I don't know what kind of damage I did with this meal.
