HD Party Results

Pooky's name wasn't in the drawing hat so he got stuck with one of the many consolation prizes of a $5 Starbucks card. Since neither of us drink their swill, I suggested he sell $1 raffle tickets to his coworkers to raffle it off. I'm sure we'd make $20. But then....

Drum roll, please....

I took the prize for both side dish and dessert!

(Ha! But, I think it is because we made everyone around us vote!)

So, we now have two CrApplebee's gift cards for $25 each. One of Pooky's coworkers said we could take her to lunch and I said forget that, come over to our house for a real gourmet dinner! She looked at me so strangely. Could someone's cooking be better than CrApplebee's?

As my sister and I have observed: If you were stranded in the middle of nowhere and your choices were Lenny's and CrApplebee's you'd pick CrApplebee's, but you'd wish for something else. At least you can rest assured with CrApplebee's you won't get food poisoning.

Congratulations on your win, Lori! Oh, well, you can always "regift" the gift certificates and pass them on in the future.

I can't remember the last time we ate at Applebee's. I think I've only eaten once in my entire life. I prefer the local Chinese buffet that actually has pretty good sushi bar included in the buffet price!

Hey at least they make good margaritas at their bar. Congrats!
