We tried Smokey Bones today for lunch. Honestly, I wasn’t impressed, especially considering that they’re owned by Red Lobster. Or vice versa, who knows? Anyway, no one beats The Pit in Hickory Hills when it comes to BBQ. And I should know, because I don’t even like BBQ, but I love The Pit. In fact, BBQ and Italian rank low on my list of types of food I like. On the top of the list? Chinese and Mexican, of course. Nothing tastes better than leftover Chinese. I’ve been munching on Mongolian beef and chicken fried rice for two days now. :)
Speaking of food … I’ve been really lax with the diet this past week and guess what? I’ve remained at the same weight. Weird, don’t you think? I haven’t been exercising either, which I need to get back into. I’ve got the new gym shoes, so now I have no excuse. Except for my laziness.
Also, my headache never came back. I feel so much better than I have in over a week now. I’ve been drinking water only. I’m going to stick with it for awhile. Maybe a bit of regular pop here and there but that’s it.
Could the headache have come from MSG in the Chinese food?
My in-laws love Smokey Bones. I was not impressed. If I want ribs from a restaurant chain, I’d rather go to Famous Dave’s. I’ve also heard great things about The Pit – we’ll have to go there one of these days.
