Things that make you go hmmmm...

Ok, so I tried to blog the other day and had a nice long (BORING) post all typed out. I hit publish post, it failed and then it was gone. I guess that was a little divine intervention. I do believe the post would have bored you all to tears so thank you blogger god.

Yesterday I had to go to court for a hearing regarding my father's estate. After we finished, S and I went out for lunch. We chose Long Horn steak house b/c I figured I could get some good protein as well as a salad or veggies. Our server was super friendly and a real peppy guy. Personally, I think he'd had one too many Redbulls but at least he was friendly. He took our drink order and then asked if we wanted some bread. S did want some so off he went. He came back with this adorable little round loaf and set it on the table. A few minutes later I noticed our same server bringing bread to another table of two, and then another. Here's what made me go hmmm..... The other tables were only getting a half loaf. They had two people, we had two people, so what was the difference?? We were big girls and they were not. Did he give us the whole loaf b/c we are fat? Now, if I embraced my weight I'd say "isn't that nice that he noticed we have big appetites and he gave us more." However, I do not embrace my weight and I was slightly offended. In my head I could hear him thinking "Oh those fat girls are going to need a whole loaf."

Things that make you go hmmm......

  1. Prob'ly would make me wonder too...if I bothered to look. I'm ashamed to say that I would prob'ly be nose down in that loaf of yummy bread **grimace**. I think too (you prob'ly already know this) that carbs are a cheap way for resturants to make you feel FULL. So, the capitalize on that. :)

  2. Well since I have cut the bread out b/c I can't have it post-op I was trying not to look at it staring at me and screaming "eat me!! I am sooo yummy! You know you want to..." LOL. So I was looking around and just happened to notice.

  3. The guy may have been a jerk, but on the other hand, he might have just brought you whatever the kitchen put out. There may have been a line of breads, and he just grabbed one and went with it. Maybe I'm naive, but it's less evil way to read it!

  4. Hmm I think I get a whole loaf everytime I go there....I wouldnt take it personally. Their bread is so good - it is evil that they drop off so much of it. Good for you for not eating it!

  5. Cara's comment was hilarious. :)

    I'm super sensitive (I hate that about myself!) so I would have been offended [=feelings hurt], too.
