Trip Food

Hello folks! I'm back from a weekend away with the Music Man. After four months of planning a surprise, I took him to Disney World. I have no idea how many millions of calories I ate while gone, but here's a relatively educated guess:

Saturday:
Breakfast:
cinnamon roll (250)
banana (80)

Lunch:
fried cheese (400?)
roast beef sandwich (700?)
fruit salad (100)

Afternoon snack:
grapefruit cake (500?)

Dinner:
1/2 cheese plate (400?)
filet with potatoes and cured veggies (600)
cake with custard and strawberries (350)

So Saturday we're talking about three thousand calories. Yipes!

Sunday is much, much worse:
Breakfast:
bagel and cream cheese (400?)
banana (80)

Morning snack:
strawberry shortcake (300?)

Lunch:
fish and chips (700?)

Afternoon snack:
shaved ice (250)
1/2 school bread (125)
Mickey ice cream sandwich (280)

Dinner:
1/2 cheese plate (300)
roll with butter (200)
french onion soup (250)
roasted duck breast and leg confit with haricot verts (skipped the sweet potato puree, it was foul) (700)
lemon tart with tangerine sorbet (400)

That's just a sample, those numbers could be w-a-y off. But if that's right, we're looking at FOUR THOUSAND CALORIES! Ay!

Monday:
Breakfast:
school bread (300)

Lunch:
buttered roll (150)
mushroom bisque with creme fraiche (300)
cobb salad (350)
2/3 ribeye with arugala and roasted potatoes (750)
creme brulee (300)

Dinner:
(and I use that term loosely, it was McDonald's)
cheeseburger (300)
small fries (230)
school bread (300)

Evening snack:
cake (300)

Yeppers, that's 3300. Wowza, I really need to get my tail to the gym!

I will brave the scale again in a couple of days; I'm not sure I could take the shock that awaits me now...
