Hating the fact, we’ve eaten out for the past couple of nights, because there is no ‘off-switch’ when a colorful oversized menu is shoved in your face by the waiter, who is rattling off the specials and then coming around a few times until order taken, ‘insisting really’ but pretending not to – for us to order a beverage on happy hour or not.
So, this morning on my way out of the door, I announced that we would be dining in – the meal of course would be up to Keto-me. Kind of like this…
