Happy Birthday Davey!

Last weekend we went on a roadtrip with my friends Rick and Dave.  Davey is a long time advocate of great health and taking care of yourself.  He is also a "I Want Candy" blog reader AND today is his bday!  Happy happy!

Anyway....

We stopped for some lunch at an absolute institution - Krolls.  My mom and dad went there as teenagers. I have been eating there my whole life and truly crave the food.  It is burgers, fries, chili and malts. Or if I order...cheeseburger with everything and cheese curds.


So imagine my shock when Dave announced he thought he would get a wrap.?.?.?.?  I didn't even know that Krolls had a wrap on the menu!!!!




Later that night we stopped for a classic fish fry and Dave ordered his fish broiled instead of fried. The question becomes, do you enjoy healthy food or do you order it because you want to for your health?  Dave's response was, "I look for the healthiest thing on the menu and that is what I order."

It was an absolute lightbulb moment.
It never dawned on me to not look for the thing you want or the thing that sounds good or even the thing I should eat - just look for the healthiest thing.

We went for breakfast yesterday and I pretended to be Dave.
I ended up with an egg white and chicken sausage scramble.  It was delicious!
