Today was “Junk Food Day,” the once-a-month trip to one of our local restaurants to get something decadent, but good, of course. This is the Nearly Famous Hog Trough BBQ and Smokehouse, located in the old downtown area of Wickenburg. Sometimes, when the wind is just right, we can smell the meat smoking from our house and the ‘Trough is a mile away.
Our diet is normally all home-cooked food focusing on nutrition and healthy eating, which is very important to us in retirement. But, every month we break away from the regimen and splurge. Today, it was a BBQ brisket sandwich with Coleslaw and potato salad. Damsel and I split the sandwich between us and shared the side dishes.
There are a couple of other places in town that we patronize, one very good Mexican food restaurant and an outstanding mid-century style drive-in joint with the best burgers, fries and milkshakes in town – Hell – in the county!

No blogging today. We had a great day of football and cooking one of our favorite steamed Chinese chicken and rice with veggies meals.
