Dustin was working ferociously at his computer, so mom and I went shopping. He made the bacon, I fried it up! 
We go through fresh produce so quickly, I just can’t seem to get enough of it. I need a farm. 
ShopRite in Monticello has C- produce, so we went to Hannaford in Middletown; they usually have an A to B+ selection. I don’t think I’ve seen an A+ selection in years! Not even at Whole Foods.
Before we left, I had a small snack of a banana and a few ounces of pork tenderloin. I was trying to only buy what we needed, so going there hungry would have surely overloaded my cart.
It was getting late, and I did end up buying more than I planned, but what else is new? 
We stopped at Carbonella’s to pick up dinner. Dustin deserved his favorite meat lover’s pizza after a long day. I opted for the plant-heavy cuisine:
Half of an eggplant parm sandwich on ciabatta shared with my mom + a great big mediocre Italian salad with romaine
Looks delish, right? It wasn’t that great. Tasted dry and flavorless. I make better salads at home! I ate about a quarter of it.
Now, this. This was fabulous. Eggplant parm is one of my favorites! YUM
Wish I made my own salad at home. 
Oh well, hehe.
Question: Have you ever been disappointed by a restaurant salad? I don’t expect much of side salads, but main-course ones should be spectacular, ya know?
