Tonight I did/ate things that made me miss home. First off my favorite easy dessert: put the pudding and pineapple with juice in a bowl. Mix it all up, then fold in the whipped cream. Eat until you want to puke. It's so light and fluffy and delicious. I also got a rotisserie chicken and some mashed potatoes for dinner. It almost felt like I was at home, and I ate a balanced meal. I added some frozen veggies and fruit I purchased.
What didn't feel like home was the very urban (read ghetto) grocery store I found. It was only 6 blocks from the hotel so I didn't think it would be that bad. I was wrong. It didn't even have a proper deli, I'm still not sure where my chicken was cooked/came from. I know I won't be going back! The selection was very much for the lower class. The produce dept was miniscule compared to what I'm used to. Time to start paying attention when I drive to where a better one is.
Today was a lot of driving. I am so wiped out. I really need to shower and go to bed. Tomorrow will be just as bad. I keep telling myself nothing too good or too bad lasts too long!
