I’ll try to get a post up by tomorrow. I got in last night, after a three hour mechanical delay. I should also mention that I had no culinary adventures in Las Vegas. I was in a seminar (or driving back and forth from it about 14 hours a day), and I was exhausted. I did visit a couple of buffets, the Bellagio and the Mandalay Bay, and they were . . . not good. Either my taste has improved, or the quality has deteriorated, or both. The baked goods were virtually inedible. I blame Tuesdays with Dorie and the Daring Bakers for that!
And you want to know what the final straw was? On Monday night, I had dinner at a Certain Establishment (not one of the aforementioned buffets), and I GOT FOOD POISONING! I missed the last day of my seminar, since I spent it in my room, running to the bathroom. Then I had to get on a plane yesterday morning, sat on the runway for 2.5 hours before they de-planed us and put us on another plane. I got home about three hours late, and I never want to leave again. But I’m getting on another plane in two days to visit my favorite auntie, but she is totally worth it!
So, if I haven’t been visiting your blogs much, please know that I haven’t forgotten you. At least at my auntie’s I’ll have some computer time to catch up with what all of you have been doing!

No you did not have a foodie adventure!
Planes are like computers when they run right they’re marvels when they don’t . . .
Do you think DB’s have changed our taste buds 😉 I do too.
I had the same experience on our recent cruise through the Panama. With every dessert I thought “I could do better than THAT”. 🙂
You poor thing! I agree, we have changed for the better and expect more from the pros. Take care of yourself, have lots of bubble baths and you will be cooking in no time! 🙂
Too bad you got sick on your trip. Hope you are feeling better.
Yeah – buffets in vegas are no good. After going to the Bellagio one for brunch a few years ago, we vowed not to do the buffet thing anymore. But sorry about the food poisoning! That’s no fun!
[…] the pictures are, they are on my hard drive back home. After being home for two days from my food-poisoning-Las Vegas-trip, I got on a plane again and headed up to Wisconsin to visit my auntie. My pics are at home, and […]
