YUMM-O SUPREMO!!

Today I went with one of my best girlies to the Cheesecake Factory.  I had a giftcard and well, when Scott is off work the last thing he really wants to do is drive 45 minutes to go eat and be in a crowd.  So, I have learned to just do my thing with a friend.  He really doesn't mind at all.  Anyhow, I asked my foodie friend Jacque who hardly ever gets the luxury of eating out if she wanted to go.  We decided right off we would share whatever it was we ordered since we both love food and trying new things.  She ordered the Herb Crusted Salmon with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Roasted Asparagus.  I ordered the Chicken Piccata (chicken breasts in a lemon, mushroom, and caper sauce served with angel hair pasta).  Both dishes were out of this world amazing!!  We devoured every last bite, including the bread.  Who cares about calories and fat grams?  When the server asked if we were going to order cheesecake we were like ABSOLUTELY!   We ordered the Stefanie's Ultimate Red Velvet Cheesecake (two layers of red velvet cake, cheesecake, and cream cheese frosting with white chocolate shavings) and Chocolate Coconut Cream Cheesecake (coconut, chocolate, macaroon crust).  We were seriously in food and cheesecake heaven on earth.  Interestingly enough, I actually didn't feel like I had overeaten.  I certainly had, especially in terms of calories, but I didn't have that sickly, bloated feeling you get after eating waaaayyyy too much food.  Jacque's and I time together was such a blessing!  It has been sooooo much fun developing a friendship with her.  I could go on and on and on.  I just love her!  She is such an amazingly beautiful woman who loves her Father & family. 

Just for kicks, we took pictures of our food.  I wanted to get a picture of us but kept forgetting to ask someone to take our picture.  Oh well...


On one last note, I have googled Chicken Piccata recipes.  I am soooooo going to try this ASAP!!
