Good Ending for a Sad Day

After a long and somewhat depressing day at a summer workshop, I was treated to an extremely early birthday present by a wonderful friend who is visiting from Louisiana. She took me to Longhorn Steakhouse and this is what I had for dinner:

Rocky Top Chicken
Two juicy grilled chicken breasts, basted with our signature BBQ sauce and topped with hickory-smoked bacon, melted cheese and diced tomatoes (got rid of those). Served with seasoned fries and choice of side.


Then for dessert:Chocolate Stampede
Great for Sharing! Two peaks of chocolate cake packed with six types of chocolate, including chocolate mousse and fudge icing. Served with vanilla bean ice cream and real whipped cream.
Needless to say I have leftover chicken for dinner tomorrow night and cake for breakfast in the morning! I received some much needed encouragement and had a good chance to catch up with Lori. Courts - Mom liked your strawberry salad.
