I went to Conor O'Neill's on Friday for a "late lunch" after a long walk with a friend. Sat outside. It's fabulous because the city has completely closed the usually busy Main Street to traffic so restaurants can expand covid-safely onto the pavement. I'm going again tomorrow night (well I guess later tonight) to meet a couple of friends I haven't seen for a while, one of whom is very cautious because she has elderly parents in assisted living housing. Probably the last night it will still be warm enough to eat outside comfortably in the evening.

I like their Spicey Chicken Sandwich but 700 calories is a bit rough.

I'm needing to make some adjustments so I've cut out Dunkin and maybe my rare Popeyes run should be extinct. My body craves garbage this time of year.

I'm amazed that Popeye's fried chicken (with their green beans as a side) doesn't cause a more noticeable rise in my BGL. Negligible.

It's been a long time since I ate any kind of fried chicken, but I seem to recall Popeye's being much more of a skin-with-a-light-dusting-of-flour, compared to the thick batter of KFC and others. (Didn't KFC have both "crispy" and "original," with the latter being much closer to what Popeye's serves?)

Popeye's should surely only serve spinach drizzled in Olive Oyl?

We went to Traxx at Greek Peak on our way home from Hoxie Gorge today.

We went with friends to Friday Friends and we sat outside last night. The only reason we went out is because I offered to cook dinner and our guy friend felt sorry for me, so he agreed to go out. Bless him. His gf wanted to go out and he's been refusing since quarantine started in March. Then afterward we went to get some ice cream. Yuum. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...c61a57fa8e.jpg

That is a fair sized crow, he and his buddies were entertaining us at lunch.

Disneyland is now lobbying Sacramento to open. Mickey's out of patience.
