Out of the Nest!

I have finally leapt from the nest (haha...nest...nestle)! My last day with Nestlé was Thursday. Though it was extremely sad to say goodbye to co-workers and friends, I'm stoked about my new job at Time-Warner. It's a great move to another great company.

Since I had to leave my mini-van at work (company car), Allison came and got me in my new car. She also got a baby sitter, so we went to Bonefish Grill with some co-workers and friends to celebrate my escape...I mean, my transition. I knocked down several of the Bang, Bang Shrimp, and a couple of glasses of Pinot Gris wine. The best part? John Rinaldi (co-worker) picked up the majority of the tab...specifically, he put it on his corporate American Express...so Nestlé bought dinner. Ended up costing each individual about $14, which is crazy cheap for all the food and beverages we got. Thanks Nestlé (John).

Now for a quiet weekend at home with my girls...wait...there's no such thing as quiet at my house anymore. At least it's a weekend at home with my girls. :)

Fuddrucker's

We just went to Fuddrucker's for dinner. It's one of our favorite places to eat, though we visit infrequently. We pull the Kids Meal Scam: everyone orders a kids meal. Their kids meals include a cheeseburger, fries, drink, and free cookie. All for about $4.00. That means the entire family eats for just over $12! Usually, kids meal portions are pretty small, but at Fuddrucker's, it's a pretty healthy portion! In fact, I'm stuffed right now and haven't even eaten my cookie yet.

The best news is that the staff doesn't care if adults order the kids meals. In fact, they asked me tonight if any of the meals were for adults so they could give us adult-sized glasses for our drinks! Rock on!

So go to Fuddrucker's when you're on a budget (not a diet) and want a really great burger with fries (dipped in incredible honey mustard)!
