Frozen bacon cheeseburger last night (I slept in and will have breakfast shortly). Kroger brand frozen bacon cheeseburgers are about twice the size of a Whitecastle (Whitecastles are WAY overrated). Before cooking, I disassemble them and throw away the yellow slime slab masquerading as cheese (aka American cheese), replacing it with real medium cheddar. I put sugar free relish on the bottom bun and the condiment du jour (hot sauce yesterday) on the top. The burger gets reassembled and nuked. Surprisingly yummy.
For lunch yesterday, a couple of friends and I drove up from Gilbert, AZ (where I picked them up; I started out in Tempe) and drove up to Prescott for lunch at Genovese, a nice little Italian restaurant I usually hit whenever I'm up there. The food and service is always fantastic. I got the seafood diavolo (assorted shellfish and shrimp on linguini in a tomato based sauce). On the way home, we stopped at a place in Rock Springs famous for their pies to get some to take home (I got a sugar free apple pie; it was good but not up to par with their reputation).
Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar (sadly the type that is only wine vinegar mixed with grape must, not the real one which is a reduction of Trebbiano and Lambrusco) I kind of have an addiction to both and I think I should stop before I get ruin my esophagus.
