The hardest part of dining out is when friends invite you. "My parents are visiting and they'd love to meet you," "I used to work with the chef, he's great," and so on. And I have had to totally overcome my tendency not to make people uncomfortable, and simply say, "I cannot have added fat or oil in any form!" My husband is surprisingly great in insisting that the restaurant hear my request correctly. I'm so pleased, because I was so worried when I started this way of eating that he'd be embarrassed by my demands, and instead he is still my white knight!Cloudyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12943521172613100046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1996255670090373794.post-88636435487115339022010-11-15T12:12:11.366-08:002010-11-15T12:12:11.366-08:00If I'm going to be gone all day, say to a doct...If I'm going to be gone all day, say to a doctor's appointment that is 1 hour's drive away, I bring along freshly baked potatoes. I wrap them in a kitchen towel and they stay warm for a very long time that way. I also usually have apples, carrots and sometimes we stop at a store to buy more if needed. <br /><br />I love the Bento boxes and would like to have at least one set of them!MrsDoodlepunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02904674697012237873noreply@blogger.com
