2 Years...

Today is the two year anniversary of when I started this blog. And it's still going.

Wow...

Firehouse Subs in Lake Mary, FL

Somehow I ended up on Firehouse Subs' birthday list, so I received a coupon for a free medium sub in the mail for my most recent birthday.
I went to the Firehouse Subs in Lake Mary, FL and ordered a turkey sandwich. Perhaps this picture was taken at a bad angle because it looks like the pickle was just as big as the sandwich. The sandwich was definitely bigger...

It was a pretty good sandwich, with turkey, cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, lettuce, and onions on wheat bread. My only complaint was that the sandwich could have been toasted more. Interestingly enough, on my last visit to Firehouse Subs, they toasted the sandwich to the point of having burnt bread. Either way, I liked it!

Watch Me Eat turns one year old today. It all started last April 29 when I created this blog by posting a picture of my food from Red Lobster. I didn't quite have a goal for the Watch Me Eat, and I figured I'd keep on posting until I got bored with it. So far, I haven't gotten bored yet!

Since that initial start at Red Lobster, Watch Me Eat has gotten up to a grand total of 209 posts. The majority of these posts feature restaurants in Florida, but there was the occasional trip out of state. Here's the official one year list of states that Watch Me Eat visited over the past year:

• Florida
  
• South Carolina
  
• North Carolina
  
• Virginia
  
• Pennsylvania
  
• New Jersey
  
• New York
  

There was one excursion out of the United States over the past year which took Watch Me Eat into International waters and eventually to the Bahamas.

Over the past year, I've accumulated a list of restaurants that are my favorites (and least favorites). Here's a list of some of these restaurants. It's nowhere near complete, but includes some of the restaurants I can think of off of the top of my head at the moment:
