5th round begins & little owl

today was the 5th round of chemo. the only good thing about this is that now i only have 1 more round to go. i'm actually dreading the fatigue this go-round as last round was pretty lousy. that said, chemo itself was again pleasant in that weird way it is. my mom & karen came in with me (jackie we missed you!) and then we met up with 2 other friends down at little owl.

many of you might remember that i worked there a few years ago...the food, the people who work there and the overall ambiance of it remain special. the best thing about chemo treatments have been my lunches afterwards.

the food - be still my heart - i swear i wanted to smack my hand down on the table while we were eating the appetizers - they were that good!

i ordered for the table...(i love sharers)....so we ordered sliders (of course) - still rock my world, clam strips w/ fried lemon (yummy), salad and cavatelli. all finished by our table. for main we got the duck, cod & goat cheese gnocchi w/ brussel sprouts & potatoes, cauliflour & broccoli. we ended with the raspberry beignets & nutella....again joey's menus are unique yet comforting. the preparation of the food itself is simply a joy to eat. service was great and to be honest it was a total pleasure to reconnect with my friends who work there.

a great beginning for this round....will check in later.
