What to Choose

Okay, so I had an amazing weekend in the amazing, beautiful Phoenix, Arizona. The only hard thing about visiting Phoenix was trying to pick out a place to eat. I am not just talking about a dinner meal; I am talking about the whole course meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.  My boyfriend and I tend to have a hard time picking a place to eat, so we both ask each other “What do you feel like eating?” or say “This time you pick where we are going to eat”. The funny thing is no matter what we ask each other our answer is always “I don’t care!” Ugh, I really hate when we both give each other that answer.

I do not like picking a place to eat because honestly, there are so many good places to eat at in Phoenix and it is so hard to pick. For example, there is: Buffalo Wild Wings, Chili’s, Red Robin, Ruby Tuesday, Olive Garden (I love this place), Denny’s, IHop, Poncho’s, etc. See, like I said there are so many good choices it is a difficult decision.

                On Friday afternoon, after watching the varsity boy’s baseball team play in a tournament in Fountain Hills we decided to go eat lunch. I have to say one of the best places we ate was our lunch at was Olive Garden. I had lunch with my boyfriend, Scott, his mom, and baby sister, and two of the baseball player’s parents, Levi Reyes and Dylan Barela moms’. We were all so hungry we had a plethora of the salad and breadsticks well we waited for our food to come out. I had ordered the Chicken Alfredo, which is my usual order…I do not like trying new things at a favorite restaurant.

                Okay so like I said “I do not like trying new things” well Scott’s mom had order a soup for her and the baby because they could not have meat due to Lent, a Catholic practice. The soup she ordered was spinach, it had some potatoes chopped up with some vegetables added in it. It did not look so bad, I actually wanted to have a bite but the baby was eating up all of the soup.

                As I was eating my lunch, I was surprised that the baby was still eating the soup. It made me think to myself "Dang that soup must be really good, I have to try it". Once I saw the baby finally done eating, I took a spoon full amount of the spinach soup. First, I took a smell of the soup and looked at it for about a minute and doubted myself. The second time I ate it the soup! It was...was very...good.

                I am not a big fan of eating spinach because back in my younger kid days I choked on it, from then on it scared me. Now I do not judge food by the way it looks, only by its taste! So now I am going to start trying new things at restaurants.
