This Buffet Is Jumbo

 There it is.  The Jumbo China Buffet.  It's SO Jumbo that it has seafood, sushi, hibichi (hibachi?), salad, and Mexican food. Because no Chinese Buffet could ever be complete without Mexican food.  The two kind of go together like, well I don't know, two things that don't go together.  Oil and water.  
The best part... there actually wasn't any Mexican food there.
 That's Jenny Haebel and Donna Morris, being fun and silly, which they are a lot, which is one of the many reasons I love them.  They are the reason I ended up at the Jumbo Chinese Buffet.  Jenny and Donna both go to school in Kutztown, so I went up to visit for a night while I was in Pennsylvania in late October.  The three of us went to high school together, and though I don't see them very often, when I do see them, it's always a good time.
 Oh, yes.  This.  This is a close-up of part of the fountain in the entryway of the buffet.  To call this thing epic is an understatement of epic proportions.  It was totally ridiculous.  Little statues of all kinds of stuff covered the thing, and the color changing lights just made it even better.  I just... someone designed this.  Someone said, oh hey guys!  You kow what we need at the front of our restaurant?  A seven foot tall, miniature-covered, color-changing fountain!  DUH!
 Here's Jenny and Donna looking pretty (they are), enjoying their sodas and nummy foods (the food was good).
 This is a little more like it.
 And here's the full scale of the fountain! 
I can't even... what... why???...I mean LOOK!
Ah, Jumbo China Buffet (and Jenny and Donna).  Thanks for the adventure.

I'll Have it With Lemon

I love seafood.  I don't eat meat, but I basically cannot live without fish and shellfish.  Though I believe that animal lives are important... I'm sorry.  They are just so tasty!  Especially when they are fried.  Clam strips and fried shrimp are two small joys in my life.  I don't indulge often, because fried food is not particularly good for me, but when I do, I go all out.  So, when I was at a cafe in Coney Island, on the Fourth of July... I used the holiday as my excuse to essentially pig out.  I got clam strips and fried shrimp.  With lemon. It was a great day.
