So last night when my husband got home from work, I asked the usual, “What would you like for dinner?” (note- this does not mean he will GET it, my asking is merely an acknowledgement that at some point there will BE dinner). My favorite nights are when he says (as he did last night) “China King”. I have been doing some serious cleaning out/rearranging of my studio for the past few days,so was quite happy to get out of here for a nice meal. So we set off for China King….
As we pulled in to the parking lot we noticed that there was a new Noodles and Company. It’s a chain but not sure if it’s just in the local area or what. You can probably imagine the menu selection- every ethnic noodle you can think of. So we decided to go there instead. We walked in and noticed that everyone in the place had the same thing on. No one was sitting down eating either. I asked the nearest black shirted employee if we could have dinner there and she said no, that they weren’t open officially till next Thursday but if we were interested she would be happy to give us a nice hot bag of food! Apparently it was a carry-out training session so they had a supply of food and no one to eat it. We happily took the food and thanked them. As we were leaving, they came running out with dessert! Rice Krispy treats and 2 giant cookies. What a fun thing! We sat out in the car and ate this tasty meal of tomato soup (you have to try this!) and Thai chicken and noodles.
Wouldn’t it be nice if more people did stuff like this? Speaking of giving stuff away, St@rlight is the winner of the Texture Boutique machine donated by Sizzix for commenting on the last blog hop. Congrats- please email me with your mailing addy- EileenHull@aol.com.
