I just had the best meal that I have had in a long time. Since I was at my mother's house in December, BFF MAB and I decided to do our Christmas dinner on Groundhog Day. We usually go to Ruths' Chris or Shula's, but this year we decided to give Highland's Bar and Grill a try. It was wonderful and the staff were extremely nice and accommodating. Now I understand why some people think that Highland's is the only place worth eating. We both had the baked grits, then the New York Strip. We decided to get ice cream for desert. It was a dish of small scoops of rum raisin, chocolate and vanilla with cookies. That plus the best service that I've received in a restaurant in a long time made it a good night.

On another note, Sunday I went to the book store and bought The Mayo Clinic Diet. I have been reading the book. I plan on starting the program on Monday. I hope I can do this. It sounds fairly simple, plus I'm motivated.

I hope everyone has a good Wednesday.
