Supper, Friday night at my sister’s home in Seattle
On Friday night of our Seattle trip, we ordered take-out from an Indian restaurant near my sister’s home on Queen Anne. I have a weakness for Indian food, so moderation is definitely a challenge. However, this evening I succeeded in keeping it to one plate, which was my aim. Although I certainly cannot vouch for whether even a single ingredient was local, I think that as with all things, balance is the key. We default to eating local whenever possible, but we also have the occasional indulgence.
The second photo was taken from the window sill of my sister’s home. It was a beautiful summer evening in Seattle - one of those evenings that remind you of why you live in the Pacific Northwest - and a good photo to keep around for the winter doldrums.

Portion control is always an issue for me when eating out…especially when trying a new place. I just want to try everything!
Seattle looks beautiful. I keep meaning on planning a trip to the NW…

As a soon to be ex-fat guy who loves Chinese and Indian buffets, I am forcing myself to stay away. Far, far away.
These days, I let myself go to the good, local Indian place about once a month as a planned cheat meal and make sure to adjust my caloric intake accordingly the rest of the day. While getting my grub on, I limit myself to two plates (and try to minimize the rice and - less successfully - Nan bread).
It’s gross to think that back in my heaviest days, I regularly went for three or even the occasional fourth plate at the Chinese buffets. That’s probably part of how I ended up at 440 pounds at my heaviest.

Looks really good! What is it? I had Indian food once, but we didn’t know what to order. Got something really spicy that I didn’t like.
