We left for DC on Tuesday and drove to Buchanan VA, a lovely little town with a great Airbnb. There was only one restaurant open and it was only open until 8 so while I was out on a walk I stopped and ordered a cheese quesadilla and chicken wings for Craig. The person at the register asked me if I wanted chicken to which I said No, just cheese. While the other person was making the food we were chatting and she said a cheese quesadilla sounded really good and I said yes it does and added that I do not eat meat. When I got back to the Airbnb after 8 PM, I discovered it was a chicken quesadilla and not just a little bit of chicken. By the time I got done removing all of the chicken there was little cheese and I was HANGRY!!!!!!! I ate some popcorn and got by.
Today after the Veteran’s rally, I decided I would like some Pad Thai – perhaps because I knew there was a restaurant as we exited the Metro near where we are staying. I ordered a Pad Thai with Fried Tofu and left Craig with the signs to wait for the food while I walked up the hill to get the car. Food was ready shortly after I returned with the car. After my shower I looked at the take out bag and it said chicken Pad Thai. The word Veteran was also printed on the ticket so perhaps there was a Veterans discount – cool. Fortunately the pieces of chicken in this are large enough that I can remove and enjoy the noodles. Pad Thai generally makes my mouth really happy. At least I will not be HANGRY tonight.
So weird.
