Last night we had a competitor of our Home Food Service come out and do a price comparison and tell us all about their product.

So all of their poultry is farm raised, without soy, only a grain diet, free range, no cages, and no antibiotics, no steroids, no growth hormones, all natural. and they do not kill until 24 hours prior to delivery.

All of their beef is 100% certified Angus, hand cut, 21 day dry aged, farm raised, no antibiotics, no steroids, no growth hormones, all natural.

Pork all local grown from local farmers, no antibiotics, no steroids, no growth hormones, all natural.

All seafood is wild caught, no farm raised.


and they were cheaper!!!!!

So we signed up with them last night, they brought out a sample burger, a chicken breast, and a loin chop.

David grilled the burger (6oz), Chicken breast (6oz) and Pork loin (6oz)
We shared the burger patty and chicken breast for dinner last night, and it was so flavorful and juicy I was really impressed, plus no shrinkage, since it was dry aged. Oh it was so good, and just thinking about right now makes me want another one!

This company has been in business for over 100 years!

I have the Blackend Shrimp on bed of mixed greens with Blue Cheese crumbles..

Yummy...

David had 1/2 dozen steamed shrimp and a small salad

We each had a 22oz beer...

Then we walked down to the frozen yogurt place and got a couple of ounces of yogurt...

 

[PrincessInOz]

Love the bedding!


WFDT? We're probably gonna do something with my brother and go out for dinner.

Brandi, the bed looks great!

. WFD? Fran and I were going to have dinner at Cafe Orleans after my DISmeet with Corinna. Now she says we have to go to bed early and she canceled the reservation. She sent me shopping in DL and no it appears we will be having frozen pizza.

I love dinner out! I saw that you are going to have a rough several weeks. That is not good.

Sounds like a great evening out!

Yesterday was KFC. I hope I think of something better for tonight.

We had a late dinner of grilled steak, sauteed mushrooms and onions and a salad. It was okay. Just okay. I worked all day (with some sneak peak DIS'in) long on part of my technical writing final paper, and then sent it to Donny for review. He tore it to shreds! I have to start all over. The paper is on social networking and my top ten rules. Not my choice, BTW. Anyway, Donny said that it was so clear that I struggled and that it is also clear I really don't understand that social networking thing. Yup.............I use FB for fun.

We have a benefit to go to this evening after Mass. Buddy lost a friend a few years ago and his family has a huge event to raise money for a scholarship fund in his name. Last year was the first one and they raised a lot of money, so this year should be even more profitable.

.....so much for the 'pizza idea'.....I did Chinese take-out - steamed chicken and broccoli with brown rice (no soy sauce that way, and MUCH healthier!) and I just got wonton soup....
