Noodle overdose

Thank you, thank you, thank you to Aunt Kari who invited us to a kickin' afternoon out. See, she put her name in a drawing for a tasting at Noodles and Company. AND WON. What she didn't know is that involved a feast. She invited her kids and Aiden and I for the luncheon.

The manager brought out 14 full-sized dishes (Basically everything they had on the menu) and explained all that goes into it, the reason behind each dish and specially prepared each one. A 14-course meal full of the best Asian and Mediterranean noodles ever. I already love the Pad Thai, but the spicy Indonesian Peanut Saute was the most amazingly wonderful dish... but so hot. We ate everything. The Pesto Chicken, the Pasta Fresca, the Japanese Pan Noodles... We even ate the Roast Beast... oh, wait... wrong story.

Below are the pictures of our monstrous feast. Aiden was a light-weight and crashed after his appetizer of soy formula. Leaving Mom with two hands: one for the fork and one for the Diet Coke. No more calories allowed for the rest of the day!!

Jessica was a totally Pansie. She didn't want to try anything. Big loss... more for the rest of us.
