BBQ!

We were invited to swim at my parents house and to a BBQ today - my two favorite things, swimming and FOOD!

I think I got too much sun though, now I feel sick. but I came here to blog about the FOOD!

We had grilled chicken, potato salad and pickles. We also had shrimp cocktail for an appetizer and a daqauri after...dude, calories, right?

I had 5 shrimp with cocktail sauce

1 chicken leg

1 small serving of tater salad

2 pickle spears

1 mixed drink

and the sad thing is, I could have eaten WAY more. I thought back to a few years ago, I would have had

a least 2 pieces of chicken (usually a leg/thigh or leg/wing)

a large scoop of tater salad

10-15 shrimp with a cup of cocktail sauce

3-4 pickles

chips

a hotdog

some kind of dessert - cookies or pie or something

YIKES!

. Mom (who has a band!) had 2 shrimp and a chicken leg. Then we came home and I started prowling around for food (I didn't eat anything, thank you very much. just water.)

sigh. I can't wait for the Hungry Monster to go away! They are so annoying!
