Vakkotaur

Last year as I was working to get my weight down I had a specific craving for a while. It was for fried chicken from KFC. I could have gone to KFC right away as there is a KFC in town. Instead I held off for a couple weeks to see if the craving would go away. It didn't, but I found I could ignore it most of the time and go on. When I finally did go to KFC the result was rather disappointing. I've had no great urge to go to KFC again.

In December cuttercoon introduced me to proper sushi when I visited Florida. For a couple months I hadn't really thought about it. However in the last few weeks I've had a bit of a craving for sushi. This time the delay isn't about proving to myself that I can make it wait until things are more on my terms, or not fully so. This time it's lack of availability. Sushi means a two hour drive to the Twin Cities, or (and this surprises me some) Sioux Falls. There might be a place in Mankato, only an hour away, but that's in a mall and I'm leery of mall food to start with. I suspect mall sushi is a Really Bad Idea.

I get to Sioux Falls about once a month, and the Twin Cities a few times a year. Another factor is jmaynard. Often we make the trip together and thus dine together. He does not care for sushi. I figured maybe I could visit sistaur and we'd go to a good sushi place, but she's just back from Florida and wasn't feeling the best after her last sushi experience, which whether related or not has put her off sushi for a while.

I expect I'll have opportunity sometime, I just don't know when. I just hope I don't have the same experience I did with KFC: being pretty much done with it. I don't expect so. I don't think I have too much to worry about as I think it was deep frying that didn't do anything for me.

It's not at all the same, but jmaynard and I will be going out for Chinese for lunch. At least it's Oriental.
