Bagels and Lox A-gogo

Howdy ya'll!  Sorry for the brief hiatus, Tuesday night was noodle bowl in Comstock and no amount of guilt associated with neglecting my duties could lead me to skip that.  In any case, today was Wednesday, which can only mean one thing: breakfast for dinner!  I was excited all day for it, but how did it actually go?

The advertised menu was sausage, onion, and pepper omelets, bagels and lox, home fries, monkey bread, and fruit salad.  I personally think that bagels and lox is evidence of God's hand in creation, so I was understandably excited for this meal.  However, I was sorely disappointed by Smith's rendition this evening.  I definitely made the wrong decision by skipping the omelet line for the bagels, as I heard from others at the table that they were delightful (and they had goat cheese this evening!!).  By some miracle I acquired the final everything bagel, but that is where my luck ran out.  The cream cheese provided in the buffet was described as "watery", and I would have to agree.  The smoked salmon was so greasy that I was forced to get napkins to clean my hands, and the sausage was also disappointingly slimy.  I finished my meal and immediately regretted eating it, which is generally not a good sign.

They neglected to provide dessert, so I foolishly tried to substitute the monkey bread. Poor. Choice. The bread was incredibly dense and covered in a crusty layer of cinnamon, but there was essentially no flavor other than that.  When I walked out of the dining hall, I found myself longing for the fajitas I had foregone at Cushing-Emerson.  It will be a long time before I trust your B4D again, Morrow.  Also, the meal was not made better by Linger playing THREE TIMES.  Cut that shit out, you guys.  I love the Cranberries as much as the next guy, but seriously.  Until tomorrow, may your adventures with food be more felicitous than mine.
