Wahduh! Wendy's!

We have known there is a Wendy's in our town since we got here but we have never known where.  Sunday evening we set out to find it and to conquer some Frosties in the process! Some interesting notes: a "BIGGIE" here is a medium in the USA and the Frosty sizes went in this order 1) small 2) regular 3) medium.

With traffic, the trip took us about 30 minutes to a mall we had yet to visit. It seemed to have the same old mall stuff ... and a Wendy's! They have baked potatoes and the whole deal. Now to be honest we were not huge Wendy's fans in the US and actually could not remember our last trip to one when we tried. At least 6 months, maybe a year.

Of course they have rice for everyone! You can't get fries with a kids meal. Just rice. Every fast food restaurant (McDonald's, KFC, et al) has these amazingly similar balls of white rice. Usually people open them up and eat them like you would a sandwich, sort of, with the wrapper protecting your hand (or the food, depending on your perspective).

The instigator of this big excursion was Angie, who got Frosty on the brain yesterday and had been suffering from it for over 30 hours. Luckily she was happy and so we accomplished our mission. Here is a great idea: fast food right next door to a gym. Its the best location I've seen since Jewish Hospital had a Burger King about 5 floors below where they could do your heart bypass!!

I'm glad you got your Frosty fix...
Angie. I hope you didn't get a brain freeze. Glad to see those smiling Davis faces. I enjoyed having breakfast with you last night. LLL Re

That gym sign looks familiar. I've only seen it from the outside, of course!
