NOM! NOM!

The list of places I absolutely HAVE to go before I leave America.

1. Cafe Rio
2. Taco Bell
3. Carls Jr.
4. Mimi's
5. Serendipity
6. Georgetown Cupcakes


The first three are done. Tuesday I hit up Mimi's and obviously I have to wait until I go home to grab those last two. Not to worry, I have other lists of things to do before I leave besides this food one. Food is not the only thing I'm thinking about.
Mostly.
Ok, fine. My liar face is on. But can you blame me? Food is dericious.
Okay, digressing here - I always know when Phil is fibbing because he has what I call a "Liar Face".
JBallz has the very same face.

"JBallz, did you eat some of Mommy's birth control pills?"

"Nooooo."


"Why are they out of the package then?"


"Nooooo."


"I think you're lying to me. Where are they?"


"Yummy, yummy!"




Anyway, what do you think? Am I missing anything?
Where would you eat if you were leaving and didn't know when you'd be back?






P.S. And don't be hatin' on my Taco Bell or Carls Jr! You can pretend to be a food snob of you want, but I'll be laughing at you while I enjoy my Western Bacon Cheeseburger and my Nacho Cheese Beef Chalupa. Go ahead and dip your organic sushi in your stuck-up-snob-sauce. We all know you wish you had bacon and fake cheese on your plate.

P.P.S. I just called DC home.

P.P.P.S. Eight more days till blast-off.

I love TB! Not when I'm preg, but the rest of the time. Jimmy's upset bc they aren't as cheap as they used to be. I love me a chicken supreme gordita! YUMMY! Screw food snobs.. at least we go cheap LOL! We could buy new shoes for what they pay for raw fish!

Enjoy the guilty pleasures while you can! It's funny all the things you'll start to crave when you can no longer have them. A bunch of us were drooling over the thought of Taco Bell the other day, and then realized that the most anyone ever ate at Taco Bell while in the U.S. was like once a year. Still, there's something about being overseas that makes you miss the very best/worse of American cuisine. =)

One the absolute hands down best things about being posted to Frankfurt was going to the Taco Bell. Yummy! Oh and Popeye's Fried chicken, i could really go for some fried chicken. I am missing fast food, big time!

Pier 49 Pizza. It's a Buzbee tradition. Also Zub's. Even though I worked there in high school, I still love their sandwiches. And if *I* were going to Africa I would definitely hit up Coldstone, that is if I were allowed to have ice cream, which I'm not. But there's no reason that you shouldn't enjoy it.

I am craving anything that is not half chicken and fries. Decent pizza, hamburger without monkey sauce, Mexican food -- fav place in DC for this is on lower floor of Ballston Mall -- I don't drink coffee, but I do miss Starbucks for their chai lattes. Don't forget to pick up an extra favorite sauce or two at your fast food stops. And just enjoy the smells, the cinnabun smells, the smoothie smells, the food court smells. IT ALL ENDS! no, it's not that dramatic -- you will be surprised what you do find at post and you will find favorites you never knew about -- but do enjoy your countdown cuisine days!! And pack a few treats in the suitcase or mail them to yourselves. Brownie mix, Mac N Cheese, etc are a great pick me up during the lean welcome kit days.

I don't live in another country, just in NYC, but whenever I visit my folks, I eat all of my Utah foods.

I have had Cafe Rio twice on this trip, and it's a bit too early to say I'm not going to go again.

So basically, I don't blame you.

If I were moving to Africa, I'd be eating out every meal, crying silently into my french fries..

Here's hoping you got your fill of everything you wanted to eat ... My favorite part of coming back to CA on our R&R was the In 'N Out burger right by the airport. Oh and Starbucks!

I second what Nomad says.

(McDonalds for me in T minus 15 days!!!)
