Eating My Way Thru OR - Day 1

Oregon - June 2017
  • Original Dinerant (300 SW 6th Ave, Portland OR 97204) - Donut Burger Sliders, they take two buttermilk donuts, Tillamook cheddar, ground beef patty, and top with donut glaze; sweet and salty heaven! We also got Northwest Clam Chowder which was pretty tasty.
  • Pok Pok (3226 SE Division St, Portland OR 97202) - Ike’s Vietnamese Fish Sauce Wings, 6 chicken wings marinated in fish sauce and sugar, deep fried, tossed in caramelized Vietnamese fish sauce and garlic and served with Cu Cai (pickled vegetables.) I really enjoyed these wings. We also ordered the Neua Naam Tok which is spicy Isaan flank steak “salad” with fish sauce, lime and chili powder dressing, shallots, lemongrass, mint, cilantro and toasted rice powder, with a side of sticky rice. Definitely could have done without the mint.
  • Burgerville - Triple Berry Shake is made with marionberries, raspberries, and blueberries.
  • Other snacks & gifts - Juanita's Tortilla Chips are probably my favorite bagged tortilla chip now. We also ate the chips with Mama Mia's Fire Roasted Medium Salsa (made in OR), which was very fresh and flavorful.

111th New Thing - Took a Zyrtec

If you recall, I went to the dermatologist to get a skin screening for the 1st time back in December. When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u...

364th New Thing - Ate a Mini Lemon Bites

My co-workers birthday was today so to celebrate they bought her a vanilla cake, a chocolate cake, and mini lemon bites from Costco . I had some chocolate cake and a mini lemon bite. These are made by Upper Crust Bakery . They supply Sam's Club, Starbucks, Costco, Kroger, Whole Foods, and BJ’s Wholesale Club. Both desserts that I ate tasted good. According to the Livestrong Calorie Tracker , 1 mini lemon bite is 130 calories, 19 g carbs, and 1 g protein. What did you do today?
